Lily Allen has said that she wants to invite the Queen to be a guest on her new TV show, 'Lily Allen And Friends', where she plans to ask her about the late Princess Diana.

According to the Daily Star, the singer recently asked TV bosses at BBC3 to look in to getting Queen Elizabeth II on the show.
