1. There seems to be some confusion here. The present monarch of United Kingdom is Elizabeth II (not III or 3rd). She became queen on 6 February 1952 on the death of her father, George VI. She succeeded him on the basis of well established laws on the succession: there was no question of anybody 'choosing' her from a group of candidates. 2. Winston Churchill was Prime Minister from May 1940 - July 1945 and again from November 1951 till 1955. It so happened that the accession of Elizabeth II to the throne occurred during his second premiership, but he played no part in it, though obviously he had a hand in the arrangements for her coronation on 2 June 1953. (it's customary to wait for at least 12 months after the death of the previous monarch before holding the coronation). 3. From 1936 to 1952 the reigning monarch was George VI. His wife was Queen Elizabeth, but she was a queen consort - that is, the wife of a king and NOT a monarch in her own right. She was referred to as 'Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother' after her daughter became queen in 1952.
