Please, write down you gender and age. It would be helpful in analyzing results.
From three personages choose the one that differs most of all by his (her) personal qualities from other two personages. Name this personal quality that distinguishes the first person from the other two persons and name the opposite quality that unites two other persons.
e.g.
person 1 - person 2 - person 3
person 1 and 3 are clever - person 3 is stupid.
person 2 and 3 are serious - person 1 is funny etc.
1. Queen Elisabeth II - prince Philippe (her husband) – prince Charles
2. Queen Elisabeth II - prime-minister Tony Blair – prince Charles
3. prince Philippe –– prince Charles - princess Diana
4. Queen Elisabeth II –– prince Philippe - princess Diana
5. Tony Blair –– princess Diana - Queen Elisabeth II
6. prince Philippe – Tony Blair – princess Diana
7. Tony Blair – prince Charles - princess Diana
8. Queen Elisabeth II – Tony Blair – I (myself)
9. prince Charles - princess Diana – I
10. Tony Blair - prince Charles – I
11. Queen Elisabeth II -– princess Diana - I
12. Mother-Queen – Queen Elisabeth II – I

The names should be Queen Elizabeth (not Elisabeth), Prince Philip (not Philippe), the Queen Mother (not Mother-Queen)
Do you mean these characters as they are portrayed in the film?
Princess Diana isn't portrayed much in the film, she's dead for most of it. There's hardly any time to be able to judge what her character was like
If you mean those people in real life then it hasn't got anything to do with the film and you start by saying "I'd like to ask ... about the film The Queen (2006)"
