Michael Fagan was an intruder who broke into Buckingham Palace in Central London and entered the Queen’s bedchamber in the early hours of 9 July 1982. Fagan entered through an unlocked window on the roof and spent the next half hour eating cheddar cheese and Triscuits and wandering around. He tripped several alarms, but they were faulty. He viewed the royal portraits and rested on the throne for a while. Fagan then drank half a bottle of white wine before becoming tired and leaving. On the second attempt, an alarm sensor detected him. A member of the palace staff thought the alarm was faulty, and silenced it. The Queen woke when he disturbed a curtain, after which he sat on the edge of her bed talking to her for about ten minutes. She phoned twice for police but none came. Fagan then asked for some cigarettes, which were brought by a maid. The incident happened as the armed police officer outside the royal bedroom came off duty before his replacement arrived. He had been out walking the Queen’s Corgis. Ecco, in questa storia cè TUTTA lInghilterra.
