Geoffrey and the Queen

Oct 23, 2011 12:09



BBC: "The Queen has met actor Geoffrey Rush - who played the speech therapist who treated her father King George VI in the film 'The King's Speech' - during her visit to Australia."

9News: "Rush and his actor wife Jane Menelaus, who wore a gold skirt and jacket, are joining about 50 guests at the lunch hosted by Governor-General Quentin Bryce at her official residence at Yarralumla in Canberra."

Herald Sun: "The man who famously played George VI's speech therapist in 'The King's Speech' was the star attraction at a dinner for the king's daughter."

Sydney Morning Herald: "He basked in Oscar glory for 'The King's Speech'; yesterday actor Geoffrey Rush nervously awaited the review of another gilded figure, the Queen. The Queen wore the primrose yellow outfit - minus the coat - that she favoured for the wedding of her grandson Prince William and Kate Middleton in April. Rush almost missed shaking hands with the Queen as she waited to receive him, initially walking past her as he entered the room, but he quickly spotted the monarch and retraced his steps to shake her hand and said: 'Hello, your majesty.'"
