The Queen has delighted crowds by making a surprise appearance at the end of her Platinum Jubilee celebrations. The monarch appeared on the Buckingham Palace balcony, dressed in green, alongside the Prince of Wales, Duchess of Cornwall, and the Cambridge family.
It came as pomp and pageantry dominated the final day of festivities celebrating the Queen’s 70-year reign. A ceremonial military procession launched the Platinum Jubilee Pageant.
Guardsmen, Gurkhas, Royal Marines and the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment in their breastplates and plumed feathers were among the hundreds of servicemen and women who led the way marching along the streets around Buckingham Palace. Thousands had gathered to watch the spectacle mirroring scenes from Saturday night when The Mall was filled with people delighted by Queen’s appearance with Paddington Bear at the Party at the Palace, and entertained by stars like Sir Elton John and Alicia Keys.
Charles spoke about the camaraderie the Jubilee celebrations have fostered, telling revellers at The Big Lunch’s flagship event in London he hoped “bickering” does not return after the feeling of “togetherness” across the nation. His sentiment was echoed by Pageant Master Adrian Evans, who has spent 18 months planning the £15 million event, featuring some 10,000 people including a cast of 6,000 performers.
Mr Evans said: “I hope at the end of the day people will feel a great sense of pride in what they’ve seen, enjoyment in what they’ve seen, humour and joy is an important part of what we’re doing today but also connected, that we are much more connected then we think we are. ”Video: London displays decorations ahead of Queen's Platinum Jubilee (Daily Mail)Hologram of the Queen waves from inside
