Nor has he ever been approached by them to fact-check any script material in this or any other series. “Discussions between the monarch and prime minister are entirely private and – for Sir John – will always remain so.”

“There was never any discussion between Sir John and the then Prince of Wales about any possible abdication of the late Queen Elizabeth II ,” the spokesman added.Sir John has never disclosed the nature of any of the discussions he held with the late Queen during their weekly audiences.
