:01:50. | :01:51. | ||
No more worries for me or you. Cliff is not the only guest on | :01:51. | :01:59. | |
board. By royal appointment, it is this evening's ring master, Gary | :01:59. | :02:09. | |
:02:09. | :02:15. | ||
Barlow and Sir Paul McCartney. to see you! We know it is a busy | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
night for the view. We must say it is a bit sad that the Duke of | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
Edinburgh has been taken to hospital but the Palace have | :02:23. | :02:29. | |
decided to go ahead with the evening. Have you heard that news? | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
It is such a shame, really sad. might have been a bit much for him | :02:34. | :02:41. | |
yesterday. I was called are just watching it on television, it was a | :02:41. | :02:46. | |
rotten day. Her Majesty stood for the whole day, she must have been | :02:46. | :02:53. | |
freezing. We do wish him all the best. A few months ago, we were in | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
the Palace talking about this thing and it is finally here. I cannot | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
believe it and it is massive. It was two years ago that we started | :03:01. | :03:07. | |
to plan this concert and the crazy idea came up within an hour of the | :03:07. | :03:11. | |
saying let's have the stage of a bear and when I got here and there | :03:11. | :03:17. | |
has denied and so the stage set up, I couldn't believe it. It also | :03:17. | :03:23. | |
shows, because I saw Sir Paul McCartney was no band, even they | :03:23. | :03:29. | |
are really excited. Backstage here, are just seeing each other and | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
there is a lovely feeling. exciting. It is not in the back | :03:33. | :03:39. | |
garden because the last time, I was in the line-up with Her Majesty and | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
I said, will we be doing this next year? She said, not in my back | :03:43. | :03:49. | |
garden! How did you get involved? Gary Barlow came and saw me for | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
this one and I had done something for him before. They knew each | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
other. The meetings agger of this are always fun because he does this | :03:58. | :04:06. | |
thing where he goes, what you want me to sing? Beacons of but the | :04:06. | :04:13. | |
songs, what you say? He just asked me and we talked about what songs. | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
I refused to do everything he suggested! It was great. I like | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
that. Are you have happy to stick around for a bit on the bass. It | :04:24. | :04:31. | |
would be great if you could hang around. Absolutely. We have some | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
pictures here. The streets are filling up. These are people who | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
are not even invited, there are just turning up to look at the big | :04:40. | :04:47. | |
screens. These are scenes happening right across the country and we | :04:47. | :04:54. | |
think Lucy is just outside Buckingham Palace. I am at the top | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
of constitution Hill, it is so exciting here. The atmosphere is | :04:57. | :05:02. | |
really building. The 10,000 people who are lucky enough to have seats | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
for the concert tonight are filing in and taking their seats. The | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
atmosphere is incredible, some of them are so keen that they can | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
doubt last night in that weather. Some have been here from early this | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
morning. I also got here very early this morning and walked up | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
Constitution Hill and I heard Stevie Wonder and Sir Paul | :05:21. | :05:27. | |
McCartney or doing at sound check - amazing. Tonight's concert is going | :05:27. | :05:36. | |
to the epic. That is quite a scene, isn't it? Either going to the | :05:36. | :05:41. | |
images projected on the stage? get darkness at 9:15pm and at that | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
point, the project on to the palace and there is even someone | :05:44. | :05:49. | |
performing on top of the Palace later. We're going to ask you about | :05:49. | :05:55. | |
that later. Have you seen much of the Queen on the last few days? | :05:55. | :06:01. | |
TV, yes. I ran into her at the Royal Academy and it's always his | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
amazing seeing her because in person, she is just so incredible. | :06:05. | :06:11. | |
I said that when she took the throne, I was 10 years old so why | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
was a kid and very impressionable. I just love to her. This idea that | :06:15. | :06:22. | |
we were going to have a woman as our monarch, very impressive for me | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
and then when you see the films that Charles has been showing and | :06:26. | :06:33. | |
you see it being so humanised with the kids. I loved seeing Charles | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
giggling, I think it is great because people sometimes think the | :06:38. | :06:43. | |
monarchy is a bit distant and you realise, as I did as a 10 year-old, | :06:43. | :06:48. | |
they are just good people. As a 10 year-old, did you think you would | :06:48. | :06:53. | |
be performing at the Diamond Jubilee concert? I never thought I | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
would later, certainly, and never thought there would be performing | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
for her. She is great. It is not just at Buckingham Palace where | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
excitement is building. People are gathering in the centre of Swansea | :07:05. | :07:12. | |
as well. There are 20 towns and cities with these big screens | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
transmitting the Queen's Jubilee concert and also at The One Show | :07:15. | :07:20. | |
tonight. I have come to Swansea where we are attempting something | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
slightly different, seeing if we can break the record for the | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
biggest royal Mexican wave so we're practising here. If you live near | :07:29. | :07:38. | |
here, this is the place to be, get yourself down here! | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
Screens all over the UK. This has to be one of the biggest audiences | :07:42. | :07:48. | |
that you have ever played? The have started to worry as a now! Windows | :07:48. | :07:54. | |
that moment, when you think, I am here to do a job? For me, it was | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
the sound check this morning, when I saw the stage and I hadn't seen | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
the set-up, it was very impressive and you're standing there, looking | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
down at the mall, which is only half full. Then you start thinking, | :08:07. | :08:13. | |
it is going to be Phil. We were speaking to Sir Cliff Richard and | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
he even said, I will start feeling nervous even though it is great | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
seeing friends and catching up with people, the moment before you go on | :08:21. | :08:27. | |
stage, you cannot help get butterflies. 50 minutes and 50 | :08:27. | :08:35. | |
seconds to go! You are really worryingly! We want to know how you | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
are preparing for the concert so take a picture of yourself whether | :08:39. | :08:49. | |
you are and send them to us. will get those shown later on. The | :08:49. | :08:59. | |
:08:59. | :09:01. | ||
Queen has been touching lives of people since the start of her reign. | :09:01. | :09:08. | |
Those 60 years ago at the time, the Queen's succession to the throne | :09:08. | :09:13. | |
created unforgettable memories. It was an early 1952 when the young 24 | :09:13. | :09:18. | |
year-old Princess received word of the death of her father, King | :09:18. | :09:25. | |
George VI. What do you memories of her visit to Kenya? I was about | :09:25. | :09:31. | |
four years old. I said to my brother, I cannot see her, I cannot | :09:31. | :09:36. | |
see her, so he picked me up and put meat on his shoulders. For a little | :09:36. | :09:40. | |
girl to see a real princess was something very special and I will | :09:40. | :09:46. | |
cherish that memory. She came to Kenya, a princess, and she is going | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
back as a queen. Charles and William have been prepared for it | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
but she wasn't because she suddenly found herself with that enormous | :09:56. | :10:03. | |
responsibility. On the 2nd June 1953, the Golden Stagecoach made | :10:03. | :10:09. | |
its way to Westminster Abbey for the Queen to be crowned. I was in | :10:09. | :10:15. | |
the Royal Marines. On the Coronation Day, I was about here on | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
the Embankment. We had hundreds and hundreds of children behind us and | :10:19. | :10:27. | |
one of these little boys filled up a bottle of lemonade and put a | :10:28. | :10:33. | |
straw in it. I could not hear a single word of audience. I cannot | :10:33. | :10:41. | |
imagine another day when the atmosphere was greater. Over 3 | :10:41. | :10:45. | |
million spectators gathered on the streets of London. The coronation | :10:45. | :10:50. | |
was an unmissable experience that united the country. I was wearing a | :10:50. | :11:00. | |
:11:00. | :11:00. | ||
paper skirt and the colour in it ran down my legs. I was five years | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
old, sitting there on the pavement with red, white and blue legs, | :11:04. | :11:10. | |
waving to the Queen! Around 27 million Britons, three quarters of | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
the population at the time, gathered in the homes of friends | :11:13. | :11:21. | |
and neighbours to watch the live coverage. The only person in the | :11:21. | :11:24. | |
street with a television invited the whole street to come to his | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
house to watch. I had the mumps and for people came to my house and | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
lifted the bed and everything down and put me in front of the | :11:32. | :11:40. | |
television so I had the best picture! This is me in the corner, | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
I was 21 and this is Jack he was eight. We all felt we had been | :11:45. | :11:51. | |
transported into the Abbey, we felt really privileged. We all stood up | :11:51. | :11:58. | |
and we sang God Save the Queen and it was absolutely wonderful. She | :11:58. | :12:03. | |
promised to serve this country and she has done it really very, very | :12:03. | :12:13. | |
:12:13. | :12:15. | ||
well and we should all look after her and be thankful. | :12:15. | :12:21. | |
We have moved outsider to the garden. What you think? It is just | :12:21. | :12:28. | |
like a garden! Upstairs you touched on your memory is as a boy of the | :12:28. | :12:36. | |
Queen but you would have been about 10 in 1953. We know that you were | :12:36. | :12:42. | |
10 because we have some homework here. From a young Paul McCartney | :12:42. | :12:49. | |
he is 10 years old and 10 months. What is the story behind this? | :12:49. | :12:55. | |
you remember? There was a competition for all the schools and | :12:55. | :13:01. | |
you had to write about the Coronation or the monarchy. That | :13:01. | :13:08. | |
was my entry. They won a prize for that. The lord mayor of London gave | :13:08. | :13:18. | |
:13:18. | :13:23. | ||
me about! This is brilliant. Look at my neat handwriting. Gary, you | :13:23. | :13:29. | |
won't remember the coronation but you remember at the Silver Jubilee? | :13:29. | :13:36. | |
I think we have a little picture of you living very cute as a young boy. | :13:36. | :13:42. | |
It was great, I remembered that will Street having a party in the | :13:42. | :13:44. | |
garden and it brought the whole neighbourhood together, as it will | :13:44. | :13:48. | |
do today. You can see the whole of England waving flags and that is | :13:48. | :13:54. | |
brilliant. Last night you said, I was up against the railings and I | :13:54. | :13:57. | |
never imagined I would be on the other side. Look at what you have | :13:57. | :14:02. | |
done! It has been amazing. didn't give us any hints as to what | :14:02. | :14:07. | |
would be on Europe set list, when there be a singalong because you | :14:07. | :14:12. | |
are closing the show. There is a little bit of a singalong. We don't | :14:12. | :14:16. | |
have long on the show but there is little sing along. I am going to | :14:16. | :14:21. | |
ask the audience to join in on one little bit. There will be some | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
Bangs, I can't think what number that will be on Lexmark they're | :14:26. | :14:35. | |
going to have fun. I think it would go all the way around the UK! What | :14:35. | :14:44. | |
are you going to be doing? I am doing at Gillette. Then we are | :14:44. | :14:50. | |
coming back and doing the record, Sing, which is the Diamond Jubilee | :14:50. | :15:00. | |
single. The girls much be so excited, they are over there. | :15:00. | :15:05. | |
have about 30 people from the Commonwealth, the African | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
Children's Choir are here and they were just loving being here, they | :15:08. | :15:17. | |
cannot believe it. They are living the rain. You have met royalty so | :15:17. | :15:27. | |
:15:27. | :15:28. | ||
many times, it must be wonderful I have been lucky, since the early | :15:28. | :15:32. | |
days of the Beatles, I have met royalty a few times. I never | :15:32. | :15:42. | |
:15:42. | :15:43. | ||
thought I would meet them as a kid. Was that your phone?! Yes. But for | :15:43. | :15:46. | |
me it was the human aspect that you never realise because we always see | :15:46. | :15:54. | |
them on stamps and money. The first time I met the Queen I was in a | :15:54. | :15:58. | |
line-up and she lives at Windsor and said where you playing tomorrow | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
night? I said we are playing at Slough, just outside Windsor. She | :16:02. | :16:11. | |
said that's just Maras! You would not expect her to say that! -- near | :16:11. | :16:21. | |
:16:21. | :16:26. | ||
I've always found her to be Berry nice and warm. She came and opened | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
by performing arts academy and I asked her the other night if she | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
remembered it, she did. She is all there. It is going to be a big | :16:34. | :16:38. | |
month for you because of this and later in the month you are | :16:38. | :16:45. | |
celebrating a big birthday. Any plans? Family. I like family's -- | :16:45. | :16:53. | |
birthdays with the family. A which birthday? 70! You should just have | :16:53. | :17:01. | |
a huge concert in your garden. is one way to go. I will go for the | :17:01. | :17:07. | |
small thing. Have a good time tonight. How long until the | :17:07. | :17:15. | |
concert? 42 minutes. The 10,000 lucky guests have their invites | :17:15. | :17:18. | |
through the ballot and are going to their seats from the royal picnic | :17:18. | :17:23. | |
on what is already a day they will never forget. We went to make sure | :17:23. | :17:30. | |
they have a picture memory of this Diamond Jubilee. It is the garden | :17:30. | :17:34. | |
at Buckingham Palace. All the marquees are said, the picnics are | :17:34. | :17:44. | |
:17:44. | :17:47. | ||
ready to be picked up and the steel All we need now is 10,000 people! | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
The least I can do is help hand out the food and give people something | :17:51. | :17:56. | |
to remember the day by. Nice to meet you. Let's get you with | :17:56. | :18:03. | |
Buckingham Palace in the background. Somehow I have become the Jubilee | :18:03. | :18:09. | |
official photographer for the public. I will take a picture on | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
your picnic blanket. I never imagined I would ever be here. | :18:13. | :18:23. | |
is it like? It is crazy. I unreal. -- and real. Nice to meet you. I | :18:23. | :18:28. | |
like that you managed to get to the champagne tent so early. He looks | :18:28. | :18:33. | |
like he is about to propose. I have the ring of the same as Kate | :18:33. | :18:43. | |
:18:43. | :18:48. | ||
Middleton. Mine is new. Smile, you It will certainly be a day to | :18:48. | :18:52. | |
remember. We are going to play a game, guess the guest by the noise | :18:52. | :19:02. | |
:19:02. | :19:13. | ||
I am still standing... Sir Elton John! We're will come. -- welcome. | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
We are glad you made it because you have not been well. I had pneumonia | :19:17. | :19:20. | |
a couple of weeks ago in Los Angeles and had to be rushed to | :19:20. | :19:24. | |
hospital because I could not breathe. They put me on antibiotics, | :19:24. | :19:30. | |
gave me oxygen and I had done three shows this week. How is your voice? | :19:30. | :19:37. | |
No problem, just the breathing and lungs. We were hearing from Sir | :19:37. | :19:41. | |
Cliff Richard this afternoon that you hosted a party, a pre- jubilee | :19:41. | :19:47. | |
concert party. We had a tea at a hotel up the road so my little boy | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
could come to release part of the festivities because he's too young | :19:50. | :19:56. | |
to come to the show. But when he gets older we can say you were at | :19:56. | :20:01. | |
the Jubilee, you just went for the tea. Who is looking after him? | :20:01. | :20:07. | |
nanny. Cliff was there, Jessie J, Ed Sheeran, Annie Lennox, Kylie | :20:07. | :20:15. | |
Minogue, David Walliams. A lot of people. Did you have food? No, we | :20:15. | :20:19. | |
can't afford that! You had been doing the catering for these | :20:19. | :20:26. | |
picnics, haven't you? A small number, 12,500 of them. We met | :20:26. | :20:30. | |
earlier and you said you walk round the outside and could not believe | :20:30. | :20:34. | |
it. If you write down 12,500 it looks quite a big number. But | :20:34. | :20:37. | |
driving round the perimeter of the palace and seeing the queue of | :20:37. | :20:44. | |
people, thinking every one of those will be needing a hamper, -- a | :20:44. | :20:51. | |
hamper. You have created this amazing picnic box. How did you | :20:51. | :21:01. | |
:21:01. | :21:01. | ||
Mark, the head chef of the palace, helped. We wanted to showcase | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
British produce and also have a time in history, to celebrate 60 | :21:05. | :21:12. | |
years of the Queen. Coronation chicken was created for the moment | :21:12. | :21:21. | |
she became Queen. So we played about with that, we have the | :21:21. | :21:24. | |
strawberry dessert, a bit like it strawberry but with yoghurt and | :21:24. | :21:28. | |
cream mixed in, rosewater, elderflower, biscuits, Moran, | :21:28. | :21:32. | |
popping candy on the top and some of the strawberries come from | :21:32. | :21:39. | |
Sandringham. -- Miranda. A no smoked salmon? There is. She does | :21:39. | :21:49. | |
:21:49. | :21:58. | ||
If you are peckish there is a spare one behind you there. Adjust | :21:58. | :22:05. | |
quickly... We did this for Princess Eugenie's birth to a couple of | :22:05. | :22:13. | |
months ago. -- birthday. Edible candles, right? We did a whole | :22:13. | :22:23. | |
:22:23. | :22:33. | ||
So just breakage. -- break it. Chocolate and caramel and passion | :22:33. | :22:43. | |
:22:43. | :22:53. | ||
fruit. Mind your trousers! In there... Is that chocolate? | :22:53. | :23:02. | |
People will be watching the big screens but surely you can give | :23:02. | :23:06. | |
them a close at you because you are off on tour. I did Taunton last | :23:06. | :23:10. | |
night which was freezing. The audience were frozen, bless them. | :23:10. | :23:15. | |
Harrogate tomorrow, then Belfast, Chesterfield, Folkert, Birmingham, | :23:15. | :23:18. | |
Newcastle, Blackpool. The such an amazing back-catalogue to choose | :23:19. | :23:24. | |
from for tonight, how do you choose your set list for a night like | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
tonight? I did not choose them tonight, somebody else did, which | :23:28. | :23:34. | |
is OK. It would have been so difficult to choose. Crocodile Rock, | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
your son, I'm still standing and hopefully we will lighted up with a | :23:38. | :23:45. | |
like a karaoke machine. Are you doing classics? A mixture of both. | :23:45. | :23:49. | |
You must feel at home because you know the Queen. We have met many | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
times and she is a very funny, brilliant woman. I have a lot of | :23:53. | :23:58. | |
great stories that I will cherish until I take them to my grave. She | :23:58. | :24:02. | |
is wonderful. Will any of these stories possibly feature in this | :24:02. | :24:06. | |
film that is rumoured to be about your life coming out? I don't know | :24:06. | :24:12. | |
with any stories will end up in the film. But there will be a book of | :24:12. | :24:16. | |
my life at some stage and they may end up in that. So you will not | :24:16. | :24:21. | |
tell us if there is a film? cannot say. You are going in the | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
royal box. If George Michael did not go on tour, you could go on | :24:26. | :24:32. | |
tour for him. You could just lip synch. He looks so much like him. | :24:32. | :24:37. | |
When he first step down I thought he had turned into George Michael! | :24:37. | :24:42. | |
Are you happy with that? The kind of. Apart from not being able to | :24:42. | :24:49. | |
Sing. So you are going to the royal box. You probably need to go and | :24:49. | :24:54. | |
prepare. You should see the size of my box in there, a shoe box! Have | :24:54. | :25:03. | |
you got a big dressing room? They are all the same size. The dogs | :25:03. | :25:13. | |
:25:13. | :25:14. | ||
have good agreements! Jacuzzi? Come on then! Thank you both. Tonight is | :25:14. | :25:17. | |
not just about the music. Across the Commonwealth a special | :25:17. | :25:27. | |
:25:27. | :25:32. | ||
tradition will shine many a light This is a fort on Hadrian's Wall, | :25:32. | :25:38. | |
this was the northern edge of the Roman Empire. It was a wild place | :25:38. | :25:41. | |
and the wall was designed to repel raiders from the warlike tribes | :25:41. | :25:46. | |
from across the border. The Romans, based in forts like this along the | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
length of the wall, needed a way to communicate with each other. They | :25:50. | :25:58. | |
had the ideal system - fire. Beacons of -- beacons are quick and | :25:58. | :26:02. | |
easy warning signs, they continue to be used as a military tools for | :26:02. | :26:07. | |
hundreds of years -- they continued. When Philip the second of Spain | :26:07. | :26:11. | |
that launched his armada against the England of our first Queen | :26:11. | :26:14. | |
Elizabeth, it was a series of beacons round the country that | :26:14. | :26:18. | |
warned of the invasion fleet's arrival. By the 20th century the | :26:18. | :26:23. | |
beacon had lost its importance. Electronic communications to go | :26:23. | :26:27. | |
there, from the Morse code machine to walkie-talkies and field radios. | :26:27. | :26:31. | |
These instant forms of communication, much more reliable, | :26:31. | :26:36. | |
sooner signed the beacon to the annals of military history. In | :26:36. | :26:41. | |
civilian life beacons live on, but now they have a ceremonial rather | :26:41. | :26:45. | |
than military use. Bruno Pique revels in the title of pageant | :26:45. | :26:52. | |
master. -- Bruno Pique. He has been organising events for more than a | :26:52. | :26:58. | |
quarter of a century, continuing a fine tradition. Queen Victoria had | :26:58. | :27:03. | |
her beacons lit for her diamond jubilee and some of those are | :27:03. | :27:08. | |
massive, up to 50 ft high. Some people would Thatch them. They are | :27:08. | :27:15. | |
massive structures. What have we done since then? Then we go back | :27:15. | :27:18. | |
into the millennium, when we let them all across countries across | :27:18. | :27:24. | |
the world. 2005, the bicentenary of the Battle of Trafalgar, that was | :27:24. | :27:27. | |
the first time the Royal Family ever came together and lit beacons | :27:27. | :27:32. | |
together. The Queen met the one in Portsmouth. The Prince of Wales did | :27:32. | :27:37. | |
Scotland. The Earl of Wessex did kill a castle in Northern Ireland, | :27:37. | :27:40. | |
the Princess Royal was Wales and the Duke of York was in Greenwich. | :27:40. | :27:44. | |
So why believe they have had fun doing it as well. The beacons can | :27:44. | :27:48. | |
be a wonderful sight. You can see why they are used for national | :27:48. | :27:51. | |
celebrations. Whether it be for coronations, weddings, or major | :27:51. | :27:56. | |
events, they help make an occasion really special. Hadrian's Wall is | :27:56. | :28:01. | |
one of thousands of sites which will be led by beacons to celebrate | :28:02. | :28:09. | |
the jubilee and today the volunteers are staging a trial run. | :28:09. | :28:13. | |
You will not burn your hands there. Linda is helping organise the | :28:13. | :28:18. | |
beacons there will be set a -- set up along Hadrian's Wall. What will | :28:18. | :28:23. | |
happen on the night? Right the way across Hadrian's Wall communities | :28:23. | :28:28. | |
will light beacons, 60, one for every year of the Queen's reign, | :28:28. | :28:38. | |
:28:38. | :28:44. | ||
Why did you want be involved as an organisation? To be asked by the | :28:44. | :28:48. | |
pageant master if we would participate and illuminate the wall | :28:48. | :28:53. | |
was really a great honour for us and we were really excited to be | :28:53. | :28:56. | |
able to ask our communities all the way across the wall if they would | :28:57. | :29:02. | |
help us realise this brilliant event and be part of the whole | :29:02. | :29:12. | |
:29:12. | :29:20. | ||
What an amazing experience, to be standing here, about 600 ft up in | :29:20. | :29:23. | |
the Northumberland hills right on the line of Hadrian's Wall in a | :29:23. | :29:29. | |
fortress built about 2000 years ago with beacons lighting the walls. It | :29:29. | :29:36. | |
must have been very similar to this. Extraordinary. It has been a | :29:36. | :29:39. | |
brilliant night on this ancient Roman Frontier and a tiny local | :29:40. | :29:49. | |
:29:50. | :29:52. | ||
taste of what The National It is going to be the most amazing | :29:52. | :30:02. | |
:30:02. | :30:02. | ||
spectacle. The Queen will be lighting the last of those 4000 | :30:02. | :30:10. | |
beacons from the stage here tonight. Sir Elton John is still with us. My | :30:10. | :30:14. | |
favourite musical of all time is Billy Elliott, it means so much to | :30:14. | :30:20. | |
me. It means a lot to me and it has been a big part of my life for the | :30:20. | :30:27. | |
last few years. We celebrated hour seven years last week and 3000 | :30:27. | :30:32. | |
performances. I went to see it again with an you cast and each | :30:32. | :30:41. | |
time I see it, I have to say it just gets to me all the time. | :30:41. | :30:48. | |
are some interesting photos as well, a wonderful celebration. There it | :30:48. | :30:55. | |
is! Took us through what is going on here. The kids were dying to put | :30:55. | :31:04. | |
their faces in the cake. I escaped. We have a wonderful cake, you will | :31:04. | :31:09. | |
not believe that that is the cake. It is a fruit cake. The Crown is | :31:09. | :31:15. | |
made of sugar. We will not to let you near that one! You are writing | :31:15. | :31:20. | |
a musical? I am hopefully going to write a new one with the man who | :31:20. | :31:23. | |
wrote Billy Elliott and we're talking about writing a completely | :31:23. | :31:27. | |
different kind of musical. This one is based on George Orwell's Animal | :31:27. | :31:32. | |
Farm. We are going through the lyrics and deciding which way we | :31:32. | :31:36. | |
are going to go with it. It is a very difficult thing to write and | :31:36. | :31:41. | |
make into a musical but that is the challenge. I have been asked to | :31:41. | :31:48. | |
write a lot of musicals because they are too easy. Completely | :31:48. | :31:54. | |
different from Billy Elliott. in the north-east and you cannot go | :31:54. | :32:00. | |
wrong! Shall go back to Lacey hears with the crowds? | :32:00. | :32:05. | |
I am with some very lucky concert- goers, these people have tickets. | :32:05. | :32:11. | |
Are you excited? Very excited. did you get your tickets? I just | :32:11. | :32:15. | |
got the new laptop and I am all new to the internet, I applied for it | :32:15. | :32:22. | |
and I won them on my but the! Double lucky. You have made quite a | :32:22. | :32:27. | |
holiday of this? We travelled down to London on Saturday morning from | :32:27. | :32:31. | |
Warrington and we are going back on Tuesday evening. What was the best | :32:31. | :32:40. | |
part of the picnic? The champagne. You are from South Wales. Who are | :32:40. | :32:46. | |
you looking forward to seeing tonight? I think Cliff Richard. | :32:46. | :32:51. | |
of course Sir Elton John, could you do us a favour, we are going to | :32:51. | :32:55. | |
have a quick best dressed competition will stop can you tell | :32:55. | :33:05. | |
:33:05. | :33:14. | ||
us who is the winner? Samantha, then Margaret. And not forgetting | :33:14. | :33:24. | |
:33:24. | :33:31. | ||
Dave. It is Samantha! She is the winner. Anything to say to Sir | :33:31. | :33:41. | |
:33:41. | :33:41. | ||
Elton John? I love you, I always have. We have just had a flash of | :33:42. | :33:51. | |
:33:52. | :33:52. | ||
your socks, it says Super and star or! Everybody is wondering what | :33:52. | :33:56. | |
they would do if they were a king or queen for a day. What would you | :33:57. | :34:06. | |
:34:07. | :34:09. | ||
do? What roles would you implement? That is a tough one. I would ban | :34:09. | :34:18. | |
things, I would ban coaches from the West End. Here are some of your | :34:18. | :34:28. | |
:34:28. | :34:40. | ||
If I was Queen, I would have a national dog day at work. I would | :34:40. | :34:47. | |
have dinner with Beyonce, the pop star, amazing. I would be hit my | :34:47. | :34:52. | |
wife. I am only joking! If I Was King for the day, Manchester City | :34:52. | :34:56. | |
would be stripped of all their money and Manchester United would | :34:56. | :35:00. | |
be stripped of all their luck and Arsenal were the top of the league. | :35:00. | :35:10. | |
:35:10. | :35:12. | ||
If I was Queen for the day, I would go to Thorpe Park. If I was king, I | :35:12. | :35:16. | |
would move all Trafford to the shores of Carrickfergus and there | :35:16. | :35:22. | |
should be a place where we can bring the dog along. I would make a | :35:22. | :35:26. | |
lot that everyone would have to laugh at least once a day because I | :35:26. | :35:31. | |
think there is not enough happiness in the world. If I working for the | :35:31. | :35:37. | |
day, I would reintroduce the death penalty. I would help people stop | :35:37. | :35:43. | |
smoking, keep hospitals clean and the doctors clean and keep | :35:43. | :35:53. | |
:35:53. | :35:53. | ||
everybody looking smart when they go to school. If I was king, I | :35:53. | :35:57. | |
would have no big mansion made out of marble with Grecian statues of | :35:57. | :36:04. | |
myself or stop people with no manners would all be imprisoned. | :36:04. | :36:09. | |
would alleviate world hunger, end poverty. I would like for Scotland | :36:09. | :36:13. | |
to qualify for the World Cup. was Queen for the day, I would make | :36:13. | :36:18. | |
sure everyone had �1 million, and nobody would pay taxes and | :36:18. | :36:28. | |
:36:28. | :36:28. | ||
everybody would have a ball. If I was king, I would ban health and | :36:28. | :36:34. | |
safety and let all the adults climb trees and catch insects. Probably | :36:34. | :36:37. | |
drive around the country, pick up the poor people and give them a bat. | :36:37. | :36:43. | |
I would abolish all yellow lines so we could park anywhere. I would | :36:43. | :36:49. | |
take all the people of the dole and put them in charge of the old | :36:49. | :36:56. | |
people, looking after them. I would be married to a footballer for a | :36:56. | :37:06. | |
:37:06. | :37:09. | ||
day, that his colt! David Beckham is my husband! | :37:09. | :37:13. | |
90 for all that was as you are sending in will stop this is | :37:13. | :37:21. | |
Victoria, aged 10. Here are Emma and her friends representing | :37:21. | :37:28. | |
Australia and Canada. We're having our own party for the Queen, this | :37:28. | :37:35. | |
is Sarah from East Belfast. This is the cute one, this is Isabella | :37:35. | :37:43. | |
enjoying the Jubilee, aged just 10 weeks. This is a party in Spain. | :37:43. | :37:47. | |
Here are the girls, Sophie and the girls from Worcestershire | :37:47. | :37:52. | |
celebrating the Jubilee and they say we love the Queen will stop | :37:53. | :37:59. | |
this is a family in Huddersfield, they look quite familiar! Shelley | :37:59. | :38:09. | |
:38:09. | :38:14. | ||
play another game of who is the guest? Who on earth could that be? | :38:14. | :38:24. | |
:38:24. | :38:27. | ||
It is only Kylie Minogue! Lovely to see you. Did you like that? He is | :38:27. | :38:37. | |
:38:37. | :38:39. | ||
very good at the Trombert. How are you feeling ahead of the big night? | :38:39. | :38:45. | |
Oh, that is the sunshine. It is very exciting. It is such a funny | :38:45. | :38:50. | |
atmosphere because stars keep bumping into each other will stop | :38:50. | :38:56. | |
the are stories aplenty. Down from my dressing room is Sir, So, Dame. | :38:56. | :39:01. | |
The is it even daunting for you? Right now, I feel OK but the closer | :39:01. | :39:06. | |
any of us get to that central stage, it will be amazing. Nothing has | :39:06. | :39:11. | |
been confirmed but in the papers it says Robbie Williams will open. Are | :39:11. | :39:15. | |
you relieved you are not opening the concert, would that be too | :39:15. | :39:24. | |
much? That might be too much! The spirit is just wonderful. What are | :39:24. | :39:32. | |
you going to do? I am doing a little or medley. I have also | :39:32. | :39:38. | |
invited a dance group to perform with me. You are celebrating your | :39:38. | :39:44. | |
own silver jubilee because it is 25 years of Kylie Minogue in a pub? | :39:44. | :39:52. | |
have called this year K 25 and there is lots going on. It has been | :39:52. | :39:57. | |
a fabulous year for me. You have an OBE he as well so you feel you're | :39:57. | :40:03. | |
giving something back to the Queen? I hope she is going to enjoy it. | :40:03. | :40:07. | |
How big a the Jubilee celebrations back in Australia? I have had lots | :40:07. | :40:11. | |
of text messages and e-mails from friends and family who are all | :40:11. | :40:16. | |
going to be watching and it seems like they are very excited, too. It | :40:16. | :40:24. | |
is hard to express to them being here, it is just that the spirit is | :40:24. | :40:32. | |
so nice were ever you go. There are only 18 minutes before the start. | :40:32. | :40:36. | |
You'll be fine but I have to ask, there are rumours that you and | :40:36. | :40:40. | |
Jason Donovan will reunite over the summer at another concert in Hyde | :40:41. | :40:49. | |
Park? You are one of the people who are most happy about that? Alex, | :40:49. | :40:55. | |
you had a picture of Jason Donovan on your wall as a child. Yes, I did. | :40:55. | :41:01. | |
Yes, that is actually happening and I think it will be a bizarre moment | :41:01. | :41:08. | |
but a beautiful one. It it is going to make people's dreams come true. | :41:08. | :41:15. | |
We can hear the warm-up acts onstage at the moment. It is | :41:15. | :41:20. | |
gorgeous and the sun looks like it is going to stay. It is beautiful. | :41:20. | :41:25. | |
Do you know where you are within the running order? Actually, I | :41:25. | :41:29. | |
don't. I should know these things but there is so much information | :41:29. | :41:35. | |
and scheduling at it again that I am just going where they tell me, | :41:35. | :41:39. | |
when they tell me. I think I am about halfway through. You have had | :41:39. | :41:44. | |
a busy few weeks because you are fresh back from Cannes, permitting | :41:44. | :41:48. | |
your new film there and we saw club earlier and it is so different from | :41:48. | :41:54. | |
the Kylie Minogue we're used to. absolutely loved doing it. Let's | :41:54. | :42:04. | |
:42:04. | :42:27. | ||
It is quite different. It was an amazing experience, the director | :42:28. | :42:34. | |
was just revered and people love him. It is so nice to step out of | :42:34. | :42:38. | |
what I have become so accustomed to doing and go back to what I started | :42:38. | :42:47. | |
out doing it with a fresh challenge. You are going to be singing a | :42:47. | :42:56. | |
little bit more up-tempo tonight? We have Dame Shirley Bassey | :42:56. | :42:59. | |
performing and lots of people have been around the block numerous | :42:59. | :43:04. | |
times, do you think you will be celebrating your Diamond Jubilee, | :43:04. | :43:12. | |
still here in 25 years? Oh, gosh, who knows? People like that, like | :43:12. | :43:17. | |
Tom Jones, Shirley Bassey, Cliff Richard, they just show that it can | :43:18. | :43:21. | |
be done and it is what you do and what you love doing and people want | :43:21. | :43:29. | |
more of it, he who knows, we will see? We certainly hope you will be | :43:29. | :43:34. | |
here in 25 years and have a brilliant evening will stop it is | :43:34. | :43:42. | |

great voice? I love the Welsh voice. We also have somebody is here. | :44:50. | :44:57. | |
Let's wish them a happy birthday. You would think that was the | :44:57. | :45:01. | |
weirdest costume in Wales, it is the weirdest costumes in the whole | :45:01. | :45:07. | |
of Britain today. Now it is time for our Royal Mexican wave. We have | :45:07. | :45:17. | |
:45:17. | :45:22. | ||

record was a Mexican wave, something like 2 million people but | :45:25. | :45:32. | |
we managed about 100, but it was a royal wave. That means it is a | :45:32. | :45:42. | |

A royal wave from Kylie, who has decided to stay longer. You was is | :45:48. | :45:52. | |

:46:35. | :46:40. | ||
photo and a half! We also have a Pick one out and read it. Is this | :46:40. | :46:46. | |
to you? If you were Queen what would your most unreasonable oil | :46:46. | :46:56. | |
demand be? I don't know! That is a tough one. A really tough. -- | :46:56. | :47:00. | |
really tough. Sorry, I don't know what I would do. A maybe to wear | :47:01. | :47:06. | |
warmer clothes for the concert? said it was cold. Maybe to be able | :47:06. | :47:12. | |
to wear a more sensible heel. salute you. Very unreasonable! | :47:12. | :47:16. | |
excitement is kicking in now and in a few minutes we will have live | :47:16. | :47:19. | |
pictures of the royal family as they take their seats in the Royal | :47:19. | :47:25. | |
Box, ready for Robbie Williams to open the concert. Under 12 minutes | :47:25. | :47:30. | |
to go. In 1953 a different type of music was ringing in the years of | :47:30. | :47:40. | |
:47:40. | :47:43. | ||
Her Majesty. She took her steps on The coronation of George VI. Queen | :47:43. | :47:49. | |
Elizabeth's coronation. And William and Kate's wedding. Wright were | :47:49. | :47:52. | |
occasions celebrated by millions but they would not have been quite | :47:52. | :47:58. | |
the same if it had not been for a bloke from Oldham. Born in 1902, | :47:58. | :48:03. | |
William Walton is famous for his Royal March, Crown Imperial. But he | :48:03. | :48:11. | |
grew up in order near Manchester. With smoke from 270 cotton mills | :48:11. | :48:13. | |
shrouding the sky, he seemed destined for an unremarkable life | :48:13. | :48:17. | |
until his father read that Christ Church Cathedral in Oxford was | :48:17. | :48:23. | |
auditioning for choirboys. Getting a place at a cathedral choir school | :48:23. | :48:25. | |
like this is the ecclesiastical equivalent of joining the Beatles, | :48:25. | :48:31. | |
isn't it? Absolut. In nearly did not happen because Walton's father | :48:31. | :48:35. | |
went on a pub crawl the night before he was supposed to come for | :48:35. | :48:38. | |
his audition and drank all the train fare way. Mother had to | :48:38. | :48:42. | |
borrow the money from the local greengrocer, they finally got down | :48:42. | :48:51. | |
here for the trials and missed them but fortunately they agreed to hear | :48:51. | :48:55. | |
him and he got in. So had it not been for that train fare, English | :48:55. | :49:05. | |
:49:05. | :49:06. | ||
music could be quite different. Walton love to live in Oxford and | :49:06. | :49:10. | |
daughter was the most beautiful place he had seen. When his voice | :49:10. | :49:15. | |
started to break he feared being sent home to all them. He devised | :49:15. | :49:18. | |
strategies in his life here to avoid having to go back, one of | :49:18. | :49:22. | |
which was to develop his composition. This was composed by | :49:23. | :49:32. | |
:49:33. | :49:35. | ||
him? This is a piano piece he wrote when he was only 15. A very | :49:35. | :49:39. | |
energetic left-hand part that he wrote. He really felt he had to | :49:39. | :49:42. | |
make and sell special because he did not want to go back to Aldham. | :49:42. | :49:46. | |
What would have happened if he had? He would have gone back to working | :49:46. | :49:49. | |
the cotton mills like other children of the same sorts of | :49:49. | :49:54. | |
families. Did the strategy work? did and he was taken under the wing | :49:54. | :49:59. | |
of the Dean he wants to push this boy's talent. Music allowed Walton | :49:59. | :50:03. | |
to escape his old life, his career as a composer rocketed launching | :50:03. | :50:09. | |
into high-society. Crown imperial grace George Inn 6's coronation and | :50:09. | :50:13. | |
many royal occasions since. Today it is being performed in | :50:13. | :50:23. | |
:50:23. | :50:32. | ||
Christchurch Cathedral specially You know you have arrived when you | :50:32. | :50:37. | |
asked to compose something Faure coronation. The you certainly do. | :50:37. | :50:41. | |
Isn't it wonderful? He really knew how to write for these grand | :50:41. | :50:46. | |
occasions. It feels Royal. How is he doing that? The wide range of | :50:46. | :50:52. | |
instruments. The strings, all of that comes together to create this | :50:52. | :51:02. | |
:51:02. | :51:02. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds | :51:02. | :51:54. | |
great, dramatic, know the effect. Today Sir William Walton is | :51:54. | :51:58. | |
regarded as one of Britain's greatest composers, favoured by | :51:58. | :52:02. | |
kings and queens. Pretty good going for a boy who couldn't afford the | :52:02. | :52:12. | |
:52:12. | :52:27. | ||
We will be hearing very different music tonight. There they are, in | :52:27. | :52:32. | |
the royal box, all seated and ready to go. Brian May is up there! He | :52:32. | :52:42. | |
can relax this time round. Prince Edward. All sitting waiting. | :52:42. | :52:47. | |
Only six minutes and 35 seconds. All the artists are probably a bit | :52:47. | :52:52. | |
nervous now. Sir Cliff Richard told us earlier he was feeling a bit | :52:52. | :52:56. | |
nervous but very excited and early on he popped in to have a chat | :52:56. | :53:03. | |
about what he will be performing tonight. Is our lovely bus bringing | :53:03. | :53:09. | |
back great memories. The last time I was on a bus I drove it! I didn't | :53:09. | :53:13. | |
actually, I was getting home from the big pageant on the Thames | :53:13. | :53:16. | |
yesterday, my car got lost, it was pouring with rain so we got on the | :53:17. | :53:20. | |
bus to Chelsea. I had to sign autographs but I got on a bus and | :53:20. | :53:26. | |
it was great fun. Did you have a singalong on the bus? Quietly. I | :53:26. | :53:30. | |
was having photographs taken by everybody. So I thought I'd better | :53:30. | :53:34. | |
not make too much of a play or that. How has your day been? I have done | :53:34. | :53:38. | |
nothing. I got here an hour early because there is nothing on the | :53:38. | :53:42. | |
streets. Everybody thinks the streets will be jammed but there is | :53:42. | :53:47. | |
nobody on them. Sarah Elton through a wonderful party for us and we are | :53:47. | :53:51. | |
all coming in and out at different times. This afternoon? That is when | :53:51. | :53:57. | |
it happened. But will people turn up tonight? I think so. I am here! | :53:57. | :54:03. | |
I could do two hours if they want. It is an incredible five, all the | :54:03. | :54:08. | |
different acts and artists. There is always something about doing a | :54:08. | :54:13. | |
show like this, there is an excitement there. I guess it is to | :54:13. | :54:17. | |
do with the longevity of monarchy, the fact you are in the presence of | :54:17. | :54:23. | |
somebody connected to Henry VII somewhere along the line. About 10 | :54:23. | :54:33. | |
years ago we performed in her back garden, all the competitive thing | :54:33. | :54:36. | |
disappears and we become like a true fraternity of singers and | :54:36. | :54:43. | |
dancers. Backstage is always very relaxed. It is fantastic. I love | :54:43. | :54:47. | |
these events. Can you give us any clues as to what is on your set | :54:47. | :54:51. | |
list tonight? I am told I should not really so I will only say when | :54:51. | :54:55. | |
I was sitting thinking about it I thought I am probably older than | :54:55. | :55:02. | |
everyone on the show, so I probably might be the only one who could | :55:02. | :55:10. | |
Sing a hit from the 1950s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 2000. So I will do that. | :55:10. | :55:15. | |
you be congratulating the Queen in true Sir Cliff Richard style? | :55:15. | :55:19. | |
will play it by ear and see if I dare to! We are looking forward to | :55:19. | :55:29. | |
:55:29. | :55:32. | ||
Not long now until he is performing in front of Prince Harry there... | :55:32. | :55:40. | |
We did see Heston there. Sat at the top there. The Duke and Duchess of | :55:40. | :55:46. | |
Cambridge are there. They almost have as good a view as us. We have | :55:46. | :55:49. | |
been really lucky that all the artists have dropped by this | :55:49. | :55:55. | |
afternoon and this evening on the show. Early on... We had a dream | :55:55. | :55:59. | |
come true! They said would you like to speak to Stevie Wonder? We said | :55:59. | :56:06. | |
OK! We put a keyboard in front of the bus and this is what happened... | :56:06. | :56:10. | |
It has just gone lunchtime and we were setting up the bus and look | :56:10. | :56:18. | |
who turned up. Stevie Wonder! question is how much did you pay | :56:18. | :56:22. | |
them to do that?! You had just finished rehearsing, did it go | :56:23. | :56:32. | |
:56:33. | :56:34. | ||
well? I am very happy. Good English accent! Will this be the first time | :56:34. | :56:40. | |
you have played for the Queen? First time, yes. A dream come true? | :56:40. | :56:47. | |
It is and I just hope we can do more of a longer situation at some | :56:47. | :56:52. | |
stage for Her Majesty because my two youngest sons wanted to be here | :56:52. | :57:01. | |
but they have school today. So I said you cannot come. Come on, Dad! | :57:01. | :57:11. | |
:57:11. | :57:16. | ||
It is really a wonderful thing. Isn't she lovely? It is a | :57:16. | :57:22. | |
celebration, I am honoured to be invited. Could we have a touch of | :57:22. | :57:31. | |
Habi birthday? Sing with me? Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to | :57:31. | :57:41. | |
:57:41. | :57:50. | ||
Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday! That was a dream come | :57:50. | :57:54. | |
true and that was for the Queen's official birthday on 16th June. | :57:54. | :58:00. | |
Such a special moment. Indeed. We are surrounded by the Military | :58:00. | :58:08. | |
Wives Choir. Congratulations. What was it like singing? Amazing. I | :58:08. | :58:13. | |
feel so privileged to be part of it. And working with Gary Barlow as | :58:13. | :58:19. | |
well. And led by the wonderful Gareth Malone. Yes, a great person. | :58:19. | :58:23. | |
You are part of the concert tonight but who are you particularly | :58:23. | :58:27. | |
looking forward to seeing performing? Where to begin? Robbie | :58:27. | :58:37. | |
Williams! Kylie. Tom Jones. It is superb. Do you get to stick around | :58:37. | :58:42. | |
after for the party? Sadly we have to head straight back. Make the | :58:42. | :58:48. | |
most of it now! On the champagne before even performing! | :58:48. | :58:58. | |
:58:58. | :58:58. | ||
Thank you to you, and all our guests. We will now sit back and | :58:58. | :59:02. |
