The Queen to host drive-in flicks

Jordan Hoffman reports in Vanity Fair that Queen Elizabeth’s country retreat, Sandringham Estate, will soon transform into a drive-in theater.

The screenings start this Friday with 1917 and Rocketman.

It’s not cheap — each car will cost £32.50. You can upgrade to a “deckchair, table, popcorn and separate area to the side of your vehicle in an exclusive and bigger bay for your car” for an additional £7.50 — presumably per deckchair.

There will also be “a pop-up bar with a large selection of soft drinks as well as alcoholic beverages, popcorn and snacks.”

My take: this weekend only, you say? Pity.
