The late Queen told Nicola Sturgeon that she had no idea what was going on when she filmed her iconic Paddington Bear sketch for the Platinum Jubilee.

The ex-First Minister has revealed details of meetings she had with the monarch in her newly released autobiography.

At Holyrood Palace, just after the 2022 concert to celebrate her 70 years on the throne, the Queen told Ms Sturgeon about shooting the video at Buckingham Palace.

During the skit, Paddington lifts his hat to reveal a marmalade sandwich – before the Queen says she keeps her own sandwich in her handbag.

Paddington then says: 'Happy Jubilee, Ma'am, and thank you for everything.'
