The Queen's mother advises her to stick to her principles and "stay strong".

ICONIC QUOTE:
"Something's happened. There's been a change, some shift in values. When you no longer understand your people, mummy, maybe it is time to hand it over to the next generation."
"Don't be ridiculous. Remember the vow you took?"
"I declare that my whole life, rather it be long or short, shall be devoted to your service."
"Your whole life. That is a commitment to God, as well as your people."
"But what if my actions are damaging the crown?"
"Damaging it? You're the greatest asset this institution has. One of the greatest it has ever had. The problem will come when you leave. But you mustn't think about that now, certainly not today."
"Oh, mummy."
"You must show your strength, reassert your authority. You sit on the most powerful throne in Europe, head of an unbroken line that goes back more than a thousand years. Do you really think that any of your predecessors would've dropped everything and gone up to London because a bunch of hysterics carrying candles needed help with their grief? And as for that silly Mr. Blair, with his Cheshire Cat grin..."
(The Queen Mother, Queen Elizabeth II)
