Victoria Ade-Genschow – aka the British Berliner – had a very special responsibility during the Queen's visit to Berlin in June, appearing on Berlin television to explain just what the royal affair was all about to monarch-crazy Germans.
The Queen will spend the second day of her fifth state visit to Germany in the country's financial heart before heading back to Berlin for a very British garden party. Check back throughout the day for live updates.
German media has been speculating for days about what the Queen might carry in her favourite black leather handbag. But what she's really smuggling into Germany this week is a bit too big to fit inside one tiny leather purse.
