Queen cracks hilarious joke about Donald Trump after awkward moment at Buckingham Palace

• The late Queen was known for her wisecracks and wicked sense of humour.
• Buckingham Palace with Sir David Attenborough as they filmed the documentary.
• The Queen joked that climate change will affect the trees presented to her over the next 50 years.

The amount of times that the late Queen expressed a personal opinion can be counted on one hand, but she was famous for her wisecracks and wicked sense of humour.

This was perfectly exemplified when the monarch was filmed walking through the gardens of Buckingham Palace with close friend and famed environmentalist, Sir David Attenborough as they filmed the documentary ‘The Queen’s Green Planet’.

When asked how climate change will affect the trees presented to the monarch over the next 50 years, the Queen, who has planted over 1,500 trees around the world, joked, “I won’t be here.”

The documentary included several delightful anecdotes between the two, and one resurfaced clip featured the late Queen‘s joke about President Trump and President Obama’s helicopters, which came as an unexpected light-hearted moment between the two.

As they walked through London’s gardens, the Queen paused and looked up to the sky as the sound of a helicopter interrupted what she was saying.

The monarch turned to Sir David and said: “Why do they always go round and round when you try to talk to them? Sounds like Donald Trump or Barack Obama.”

Just a few minutes later, Attenborough noticed one of the many features in the extensive Buckingham Palace gardens.

He chuckles as he points to a massive sundial: “I was going to say… sundial neatly planted in the shade…,” the monarch appears to agree before realising Sir David’s irony: “Isn’t it good, yes?”
