One-upmanship.<\/p>\n<p>Kozlowski recalls a time when the queen out-performed \u201cIron Lady\u201d Margaret Thatcher, who was just six months her senior. More than once in the hit Netflix <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> \u201cThe Crown,\u201d the prime minister is portrayed as the sovereign\u2019s rival.<\/p>\n<p>In the 1980s, both women attended a hot, crowded annual reception at Buckingham Palace with 1,000 foreign dignitaries, spending hours pressing the flesh. At one point, Thatcher felt faint and had to sit down, just as she had at the previous year\u2019s event. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith hundreds of diplomats waiting in the wings, she collapsed in a pale, exhausted heap,\u201d writes Kozlowski. \u201cGlancing across the room, the queen simply noted: \u2018Oh look!
