Camilla's gem of a joke at Charles Dickens' house
Scottish Daily Express
|March 27, 2025
THE Queen visited one of the homes of Charles Dickens yesterday - but resisted the urge to make like the pickpockets in one of his most famous novels, Oliver Twist.
Camilla was shown a diamond ring taken as a keepsake and worn by the Victorian author after his sister-in-law, Mary Hogarth, died in his arms.
Admired
Her Majesty admired the precious gem at the Charles Dickens Museum, saying: "It is rather lovely."
But after Oliver Dickens - the writer's great-great-great-grandson - told the Queen the tragic tale attached to it, she handed it back and quipped: "I won't nick it!"

Why I'm gunning for litter louts
IT’S kind of an unwritten rule among newspaper columnists: never name, or quote, another newspaper columnist. Even if he or she has written something really good. In fact, ESPECIALLY if they have written something really good. Plough your own furrow. Stick to your own field.
