With her beaming smile and mischievous sense of humour, the late Queen Elizabeth was unmistakable.
As one of the most famous people to walk this earth, going out and about without being recognised was a near impossible challenge.
But at the end of the Second World War, she came up with a clever way so that she could do just that.
After on VE Day in May 1945, crowds gathered en masse in the street - and the future Queen wanted to join them along with her sister Margaret.
There's even a film based on her attempts to join in, with 2015's A Royal Night Out shining a light on what may have happened, MyLondon reports.
While some of the film lends itself to a degree of artistic licence and embellishment, it follows how the young sisters got their parents’ permission to go incognito and join the swathes of crowds who had swelled in the street.
It's understood that an organised group of 16 went out at around 10pm to join the celebrations before returning to Buckingham Palace at 1am.
40 years later, in 1985, The Queen recalled: "I remember lines of unknown people linking arms and walking down Whitehall, all of us just swept along on a tide of happiness and relief."
Queen Elizabeth II had a very close relationship with her sister.
One particularly charming anecdote of the two young girls, years before one could even conceptualise being the Queen of England, sees Elizabeth and Margaret put on a pantomime during the Second World War in Windsor Castle.
Elizabeth wasn't sure on the ticket price of seven and sixpence.
”No one will pay that to look at us!” the future Queen said to her sister, according to Princess Margaret's biographer, Craig Brown.
“Nonsense. They’ll pay anything to see us,” Margaret reportedly replied.
They were each other's only siblings, and their at-home education - alongside the intense security that accompanies their status - meant the sisters spent much of their time together.
And it wasn't just a sibling closeness the two enjoyed in their childhood, but a genuine friendship that a family friend of the royal family referred to in an interview with Vanity Fair as being "the best of friends growing up".
The whole family unit were close, with the King often referring to "us four" in public broadcasts on the radio, in reference to his daughters, his wife, and himself.
Meanwhile, it's been revelaed that BBC newsreader Huw Edwards learnt about Queen Elizabeth II's death just 10 seconds before he made the announcement on air.
The death of the Queen was announced at around 6.30pm on September 8, with Edwards leading the coverage for the station.
He had been presenting the rolling coverage for around six hours before the announcement and continued into the evening as tributes flooded in for the Queen.
Viewers have called for him to receive a knighthood over his coverage of her death but he admitted he is 'embarrassed' by it.
