I was listening to "Killer Queen" the other day and thinking that would make a pretty great tv show!
Silly secret-agent hijinx a la Alias, except the protagonist is the fictionalised young Queen of fictionalised England or some other place with a large and important constitutional monarchy. Then she can use state visits as a cover for assassinations and stuff. It could be pretty awesome. Although possibly more fun to fantasise about than to actually write...
Which begs the question, however: does a queen speak just like a baroness? Also, can you actually ignite dynamite with a laser beam?
