My memories of the Queen at 90 production

by Ann Wright, June 14, 2016

If you live in the UK, you can hardly fail to have noticed that the Queen had her (official) 90th birthday at the weekend. As usual, this was celebrated with a series of events – a church service at St Paul’s Cathedral on Friday, Trooping the Colour on Saturday, and the Patron’s Lunch on Sunday.

All of these were broadcast by the BBC and I was very happy to be part of the production team working on the highlights programmes which were broadcast each evening.

Here are some of my memories of the weekend’s production.
