Christmas with the Royal Family is filled with time-honored family traditions, a trip to church, and according to one former butler, the occasional dinner mishap. But apparently there was one game that the late Queen couldn't stand and went as far as to ban her family from playing at Sandringham House over the holiday season.
"Don’t suggest playing Monopoly, it’s banned!" former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond told the Sun. She explained that Queen Elizabeth "thought it was too vicious" and wouldn't allow it to be played, instead preferring “a royal favorite" game of charades during the Christmas season.
