"I always wondered what the guy banging on the door of the houses of Parliament with the huge ceremonial stick was all about when I was a kid."
This was the bit I also remember from a documentary I watched recently, they only answer on the third knock, I think. And when they move to the room where the Queen is to give her speech they talk among themselves deliberately loud to signal once again that they don't care.
