00:00:09,519 --> 00:00:16,379
We have heard and talked about lots of kings. We know good kings, bad kings, inventor kings,

2
00:00:16,780 --> 00:00:19,339
kings who burn cakes, but

3
00:00:19,899 --> 00:00:21,899
What about queens?

4
00:00:21,899 --> 00:00:26,000
Today, we'll talk about a queen, an old queen.

5
00:00:26,379 --> 00:00:31,679
Yes, it's all us, little grandma, you know, who makes a class of cookies.

6
00:00:32,619 --> 00:00:34,740
We're talking about Queen Elizabeth.

7
00:00:35,979 --> 00:00:37,659
2

8
00:00:37,659 --> 00:00:44,659
Queen Elizabeth is 96 years old, and surprisingly, she's still alive.

9
00:00:46,979 --> 00:00:52,799
No, don't you do it. No, okay, you asked for it.

10
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:57,420
Much better.

11
00:00:57,420 --> 00:01:03,600
Her reign started on 6th February from 1952, when her daddy died.

12
00:01:04,659 --> 00:01:06,659
He probably went for milk.

13
00:01:06,659 --> 00:01:10,079
Her death was King George VI.

14
00:01:10,079 --> 00:01:14,599
Queen Elizabeth was crowned in June 2nd from 1953.

15
00:01:14,599 --> 00:01:24,379
That means that today, in 2022, is the 69th anniversary of her crowning and the 70th anniversary

16
00:01:24,379 --> 00:01:25,959
of her in the throne.

17
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:33,640
Congratulations, Queen Elizabeth, get out.

18
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:42,680
The celebrations of Queen Elizabeth are just crazy, not going to McDonald's, for example.

19
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:51,459
In June holiday there was a celebration where more than 1,500 bacons, sorry, I mean, bacons

20
00:01:51,459 --> 00:01:52,459
are whipped.

21
00:01:52,459 --> 00:01:59,400
A Thanksgiving service called Commonwealth will be held on St. Paul's Cathedral and

22
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,400
there will be a birthday parade called

23
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,400
Trooping the Colour from the Queen.

24
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,400
All of this happens in four days.

25
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,400
It is called pomp and pageantry.

26
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:17,400
There are events celebrated with a platinum party at the palace.

27
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:22,400
It is live concert broadcast by the Buckingham Palace

28
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:27,400
which dancers, musicians, soldiers, key workers

29
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:34,400
Here on Portrayer Volunteers, the volunteers portray the story of the queen's ring.

30
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:40,400
A key of attraction is the big jubile lounge, which discontinues a tradition.

31
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,400
I'm gonna erase this.

32
00:02:54,389 --> 00:03:00,389
This was also done hundreds of years ago to celebrate important events.

33
00:03:00,389 --> 00:03:03,389
There were also royal weddings.

34
00:03:03,389 --> 00:03:07,770
These have also attracted lots of people.

35
00:03:07,770 --> 00:03:17,110
Some real couples are Prince Charles and Diana in 1981, William and Kate in 2011, and Harry

36
00:03:17,110 --> 00:03:20,110
and Meghan in 2018.

37
00:03:20,110 --> 00:03:25,389
As you can see, British people love celebrating events.

38
00:03:25,389 --> 00:03:32,389
Elizabeth celebrated her 50-year Golden Jubilee and her 60-year Diamond Jubilee.

39
00:03:32,389 --> 00:03:45,389
There were fireworks, I wish I could fly, let's see the silver jubile, the silver jubile

40
00:03:45,389 --> 00:03:55,550
took place in 1977, she traveled all around the country while everyone greeted her.
