A man has gone viral for his uncanny video impression of Her Majesty.
Julian Sewell is a New Zealander from Auckland. He shared his TikTok video and can be seen imitating the Queen’s Christmas message.
This short video, captioned “This is my prediction”, shows Julian sitting upright on the couch while he imitates the English accent of the monarch to recreate the 2021 holiday message.
And the speech – which included references to the ‘ghastly Delta variant’ and ‘looking ahead to the future’ – wowed social media users, with one branding it ‘spot on.’
“It is clear that a speechwriter is crying and shaking as they erase pages of drafts,” wrote one. Another joked, “Queen 100% will lip sync her speech with this audio.”

As always, though, we are looking forward to the future. We wish you and all your loved ones a Merry Christmas.
