Fans noticed that rather than having an impressive television set that is fit for a palace, the Queen had opted for a more practical set up for Windsor Castle and had a smaller screen that was set up on a stand rather than mounted onto a wall.
"2001 tv set vibes," said one fan zooming in on the dated TV set by the fireplace in Windsor Castle.
"Elizabeth!! That is the ugliest TV stand I have ever seen!!," said another cheeky fan.

Other fans complimented the Queen for this no-nonsense set up. "I love that she is frugal," said another commenter.
"She keeps things for years, that generation do," said another commenter who added that if she had an enormous TV, this may also ruffle feathers, "I suppose if it was flash people would complain too."
Other fans were less convinced by the Queen's frugal ways. "I spy a sky tv box," joked one fan who was sure that Her Majesty was enjoying premium TV channels.

Fans were also delighted to see Her Majesty back on her feet following her last public appearance when the Queen used a mobility aid at Chelsea Flower Show and was seen in a golf buggy being escorted around the flower show. One fan commented that it was, "Good to see Her Majesty back doing her thing."
