THE late Queen refused to open Bristol Airport's new terminal after a relative on his way to see her at Balmoral was stopped from boarding a plane with his guns, he has claimed.

- Laura ELSTON

Lord Ivar Mountbatten, pictured inset, a first cousin once removed of Prince Philip, the late Duke of Edinburgh, revealed he was prevented from taking his shotguns on a flight from Bristol to Aberdeen.

He told Gyles Brandreth's Rosebud podcast how a “sweet check-in lady” told him the hold was accessible from the cabin so they would not be secure, despite him telling a manager: “The Queen’s sending me a car and she’s expecting me for tea.”
