  It was the 32-year-old’s second successful attempt to break into Buckingham Palace. On his first attempt, he scaled a drainpipe, briefly startling a housemaid who called security, but they decided not to act. Fagan entered through an unlocked window on the roof and spent the next half hour eating cheddar cheese and wandering around. He tripped several alarms, but they were faulty. He viewed the royal portraits and rested on the throne for a while. He then entered the postroom, where he drank half a bottle of California white wine before becoming tired and leaving.
  
  On the second attempt, an alarm sensor detected him. A worker in the Palace thought the alarm to be false, and silenced the alarm, Fagan having gone unnoticed. En route to see the Queen, he broke a glass ashtray, lacerating his hand.
  
  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. The Queen phoned twice for police but none came. She then asked for some cigarettes, which were brought by a maid. When the maid did not return to base for some time, a footman Paul Whybrew (also called “Big Paul”) appeared. 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 dogs.
