  • Comment: File:Mrs Patrick Campbell as Eliza Doolittle.png is the image for the second hook. It doesn't look too bad at the thumbnail size either. I know the proposed image is actually a cropped version of the image in the article, which I think ought to be permissible...
  • Comment - Maybe the first hook could go up on 12th May as the Coronation took place that day in 1937? Frustratingly I've just realised I NARROWLY missed the 101th anniversary of the UK premiere of Pygmalion (11 April!) for the second hook! Mabalu (talk) 10:08, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
  • Any ideas how to modify the hook so that readers aren't confused into thinking that the current queen was inaugurated in 1937 (and, trust me, plenty of readers will be so confused). EEng (talk) 04:52, 17 April 2015 (UTC)
Hmm. Maybe:

The problem is that she wasn't the QM at the time, so I don't know what to say. EEng (talk) 12:41, 17 April 2015 (UTC)
