Jubilee


In this special report on the Queen’s Silver Jubilee schoolchildren are quizzed about the monarch in Bath, Somerset. It examines how the South West is preparing to welcome the Queen on her Silver Jubilee tour in celebration of her twenty-five years on the throne. Elizabeth was born on 21 April 1926 and acceded to the throne on 6 February 1952 as Her Majesty The Queen and is also known by the regnal name of Elizabeth II. In 1967 she went on tour to St Mary's on the Isles of Scilly.
