ITV Documentaries

The Queen And I (2012x12)

Uitzenddatum: Jun 04, 2012

For 60 years, the Queen’s reign has been recorded, not just by news cameras, but in thousands of home movies shot by ordinary members of the public. For decades many of these amateur films have remained unseen in attics, cine club collections and film archives. Put together, these amateur movies provide a unique and often surprising portrait of an ever-changing Britain and our Queen. In episode one, we meet some of the people whose brush with royalty was caught on film. In episode two, we recall the Queen’s first official trip overseas and remember the silver jubilee tour, whilst meeting more of the people whose brush with royalty was caught on film.
