I, for one, would like to thank the Queen for making her royal address and providing the nation with something it sorely needs right now…

On April 5, Queen Elizabeth II gave a rare televised speech in which she encouraged British citizens to stay strong during this tough them and applauded workers from the National Health Services for their dedication. During the speech, the Queen of England did something she hasn't done since her 2016 speech to celebrate her 90th birthday—she wore green. And, just as on that occasion, the internet has now gone wild with her “green screen” outfit.
Morphing the Queen's outfit into different looks is definitely the bit of levity that the world needs right now. In fact, according to these Photoshoppers, the Queen has been passing time doing a lot of the same activities we are. From binge-watching Tiger King to spending hours immersed in Animal Crossing, these internet versions of the Queen show her in the same boat at the rest of us.
We've picked through some of our favorite versions of the “green screen Queen,” which you can find below. You can find a ton of other creative interpretations on a Twitter thread started by Peter Chiykowski.
People have been having a field day transforming the Queen's “green screen” outfit ever since her televised speech on April 5.
This is a difficult time for everyone and I, for one, am grateful for gifts such as these… pic.twitter.com/9v5M3Yhgog

According to some, the Queen's quarantine doesn't look so different than ours.
