Does HRH the queen own a mobile phone?

[Duggie73]

Does the queen own one or has she ever owned one or do you think that maybe her security told her she can't have one as it's a security risk and risk from hacking/monitoring her wherabouts etc?
But then again she's the queen so she could have one if she wanted one i suppose.
Any thoughts?

[ummmm]

I don't think she'd really need one.

She had one in 2001, according to the Guardian -

She doesn't even carry with her 2 pennies to rub together so a phone would be out. I do sometimes wonder what she carries in that handbag that seems glued to her arm though.

Maybe she could bring it in to Phillip cause if he like the rest of the patients will be robbed by the phone cost in the hospitals if he want to ring .To say hello once cost me 13 quid by the time they got through to the patient .

She carries spare gloves, spare tights/stockings and at least one handkerchief, and mints.

yes she does, and keeps abreast of all technology!

her handbags are mainly 'security blankets' or accessories, i guess ... something to do with her hands?? x

She packs a Colt 45 in there

I'm sure she prefers MD 20/20 as a livener.

[ummmm]

And lipstick.

She was shown (as played by Helen Mirren) in the film "The Queen" using a mobile in the scene where her Land Rover breaks down at the river crossing.
