Platinum Jubilee Special
Aled Jones and Pam Rhodes celebrate HM the Queen’s platinum jubilee at a street party in Eton, looking across the Thames to Windsor Castle. With local people and special guests, they reflect on the Queen’s remarkable reign and the strong Christian faith that has been the foundation of her life.\n\nHistorian Kate Williams takes questions about the Queen from local school children before joining Aled in St George’s Chapel in the grounds of Windsor Castle.
