The Queen spent Wednesday night in hospital for preliminary medical checks and is now back at Windsor Castle, Buckingham Palace has said.
The 95-year-old monarch returned from hospital at lunchtime on Thursday and is "in good spirits", the palace added.
The Queen was said to be "disappointed" after cancelling a visit to Northern Ireland on Wednesday.
She was given medical advice to rest for a few days, after a busy schedule of public engagements.
In a statement on Thursday night, Buckingham Palace said: "Following medical advice to rest for a few days, the Queen attended hospital on Wednesday afternoon for some preliminary investigations, returning to Windsor Castle at lunchtime today, and remains in good spirits."

The Queen was seen by specialists at the private King Edward VII's Hospital in central London, about 19 miles (32km) from Windsor. Her admittance is understood not to be related to coronavirus.
The overnight stay was said to be for practical reasons and the Queen was back at her desk undertaking light duties on Thursday afternoon.
The King Edward VII's is a private hospital in London's Marylebone used by senior royals, including the Queen's husband, the late Duke of Edinburgh, who received treatment there earlier this year.
It has been a busy period of official engagements for the Queen.
She was pictured hosting a Global Investment Summit at Windsor Castle on Tuesday evening alongside Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
An official record of the Queen's diary showed at least 15 other formal events during October.
On Wednesday, a Buckingham Palace spokesman said the monarch had "reluctantly accepted medical advice to rest for the next few days".
He said the Queen was "disappointed that she will no longer be able to visit Northern Ireland" - which would have involved an overnight stay.
She is expected to lead a royal delegation to the Glasgow COP26 climate change summit in two weeks' time.
Earlier this week, the Queen declined a magazine's award of Oldie of the Year, saying "you are only as old as you feel".
She "politely but firmly" turned down the award, but sent the Oldie magazine a message with her "warmest best wishes".

Just a preliminary thread for now, but it's worth keeping an eye on, pretty sure this was how it started with Philip...

I don't think she's long for the world. Most of the Elderly that I've known who've lost their husband/wife joined them pretty soon after. Losing someone like that can just end up breaking you.

I give her a year if I'm honest.

 

[Leonard Persin]

The spouse dies soon after. Almost always happen.

Spouse in name only. House Windsor is great at stud farming out the ladies to other Royals

 

[Cyclonus]

My PC takes so long to shut down I've decided to call it Queen Elizabeth.

I will say that I think London Bridge will be massively stripped back after the backlash Forth Bridge got. You won't get the wall to wall talking heads and doccos for longer than necessary as people really don't want to watch that anymore and will just turn to Streaming or YouTube.

Everything else will go ahead as planned though.

The reign of King Charles III is soon upon us.

Jesus. He looks almost as old as his mother.

 

[Niggernerd]

Maybe they'll throne a man and Britain will be fixed.

I take it he wont be taking a different name?

 

[Cyclonus]

I heard he didn't want to be Charles the third because one of the other Charles got his head cut off. I thought he wanted to be George VII.

 

[Mr. Bung]

She's been queen longer than my dad has been alive. It'll be weird losing her then seeing a likely two or three other changeovers as long as I'm alive.

 

[Paulmall Blartcop]

Rumor has it she possesses the mystical ability to fire an L85 on full-auto... without it jamming.

Well, according to the rules, he can technically choose to be known by a chosen "Regent's Name" and there is precedent for this, but it hasn't been done in quite some time.

Fun fact, Big Ears sees the name Charles as Royally cursed. He's more than likely going to take one of his middle names as his monarchial nomenclature.

 

[Cyclonus]

He's been Charles for too long. Nobodys going to call him anything else even if he did take another name. Incidentally, you know when that phone call of him telling Camilla he wants to be her tampon leaked? That led to a brief period of women going into pharmacists during their time of the month, sniggering and asking for a "packet of Charlies". That was fucking great, I wish it caught on.

Boris felt the need to reassure the country. Something's up.

No, Boris just likes to butt in to try and make himself look good.

 

[Billy Beer]

She's following the same pattern as Phillip a month or so before he moved on; a few nights in hospital, followed by rest at home, followed by an extended stay in hospital, only to be discharged to pass away amongst friends and family.

 

[Brahma]

Oversaw the degeneration of her nation.

Charles will oversee it's dissolution.

Edit

William will live up to his namesake and lead a reconquista against the Mohammedan hordes

If that's true my guess would be he'll take the name George VII and continue his grandfathers namesake.
