I am shocked. Surely this fellow realises that a mere commoner can't challenge a noble? And the Department of Whatsit was clearly acting for the Crown, ie, a noble, though I believe Herself is exempt from challenge when acting as the Crown, rather than as the individual sovereign.

Plus, given the fact that the Sovereign Lady is a Lady (and I'm not sure you can challenge Ladies at all), she'd have to be represented by a Champion. She could choose any of her sons or grandsons (some of whom have some military training, which should mean they're not entirely useless at physical combat), or she may already have an appointed Champion of England. (One hopes she didn't pick said Champion just for looking good in gold-inlaid armour.)

Furthermore, as the challenged party, it's up to her to choose the weapons, ruling out the challenger's generous offer of 'ard 'ard 'ammers and the rest.

I mean, really, speaking as a rabid lefty republican Australian, honestly, what are they teaching the kids in British schools nowadays? This sort of thing should be common knowledge! :P
