The Queen back at Windsor after hospital stay

She is "in good spirits" after a one-night stay for preliminary medical checks, Buckingham Palace says.

The Queen spent Wednesday night in hospital for preliminary medical checks and is now back at Windsor Castle, Buckingham Palace has said.
The 95-year-old monarch returned from hospital at lunchtime on Thursday and is "in good spirits", the palace added.
The Queen was said to be "disappointed" after cancelling a visit to Northern Ireland on Wednesday.
She was given medical advice to rest for a few days, after a busy schedule of public engagements.
In a statement on Thursday night, Buckingham Palace said: "Following medical advice to rest for a few days, the Queen attended hospital on Wednesday afternoon for some preliminary investigations, returning to Windsor Castle at lunchtime today, and remains in good spirits."
The Queen was seen by specialists at the private King Edward VII's Hospital in central London, about 19 miles (32km) from Windsor. Her admittance is understood not to be related to coronavirus.
The overnight stay was said to be for practical reasons and the Queen was back at her desk undertaking light duties on Thursday afternoon.
The King Edward VII's is a private hospital in London's Marylebone used by senior royals, including the Queen's husband, the late Duke of Edinburgh, who received treatment there earlier this year.
It has been a busy period of official engagements for the Queen.
She was pictured hosting a Global Investment Summit at Windsor Castle on Tuesday evening alongside Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
An official record of the Queen's diary showed at least 15 other formal events during October.
On Wednesday, a Buckingham Palace spokesman said the monarch had "reluctantly accepted medical advice to rest for the next few days".
He said the Queen was "disappointed that she will no longer be able to visit Northern Ireland" - which would have involved an overnight stay.
She is expected to lead a royal delegation to the Glasgow COP26 climate change summit in two weeks' time.
Earlier this week, the Queen declined a magazine's award of Oldie of the Year, saying "you are only as old as you feel".
She "politely but firmly" turned down the award, but sent the Oldie magazine a message with her "warmest best wishes".

Okay it‘s British morning she must still be alive because no announcements dammit I’m just gonna drink till the bitch dies that seems like a good decision. Stiff upper lip chaps, wat wat!
 
May be a noon announcement, but I don't see it happening.

All I know is the owner of the rag that claimed Liz is dead has tripled down on it and Twitter is dunking on him pretty hard.

Hollywood Uncovered or something like that. Dude getting dunked on is called Jason Lee (nothing to do with Earl J Hickey or Pineapple-headedness)

Still no announcement nor denial from The Palace, but I had a peek at the work telly and the newsreader was wearing black. Still Schrodinger's Queen.
 
I think they'll do everything to keep her alive for her Platinum Jubilee in June. Even if means just pumping her full of drugs and having her hooked up to machines for most of the time.

But then again, she could die anyway despite all that. Who knows at this point?
 
Today's the day lads! Today is the day! Just 3.5 hours.
 
Listen i was told that bitch was dead then I was told lol wait til brit bbc and I am still sober and nothing! someone owes me a 750ml of whiskey for this!
 
The One Show's being filmed at Buckingham Palace tonight.

I'd love it if there's a Fawlty Towers type situation happening there throughout.
