The BBC has been accused of 'pulling at viewers' heartstrings' as they reaired the Queen's skit with Paddington Bear. Earlier this year, during her Platinum Jubilee celebrations, the late monarch surprised everyone by appearing alongside the Peruvian bear inside Buckingham Palace.
The sketch saw the Queen sit down at a table opposite a clumsy Paddington in the iconic setting just before the BBC's Party at the Palace. In the scenes, the animated children's character was seen having tea with Her Majesty and offering her a marmalade sandwich, only for her to pull her own from her handbag.
The Peruvian bear then congratulated the Queen on her 70-year reign, saying: "Happy Jubilee Ma’am. And thank you for everything.” And she replied: "That’s very kind." They were then informed the special Jubilee concert was about to start and tapped along to Queen's 'We Will Rock You' on their teacups.
