If you're in the UK or in any way engaged with anything British, you must have come across the June 2022 celebrations of HM Queen Elizabeth's Platinum Jubilee. The first British monarch to celebrate a platinum jubilee, Queen Elizabeth ascended the throne in February 1952 and now completes 70 years of public service. It's celebrated with special events in London and across the country for four days in a row.
Royal Celebrations
From a Big Jubilee Lunch and a Platinum Party at the Palace, to trooping the colour, a pageant, and ringing Great Paul - the largest church bell in the country, the entire county will celebrate. Many of the events will be broadcast live by the BBC or on
BBC iPlayer. But, if you really like to get a taste of the celebrations, then make the official Platinum Jubilee Pudding at home.
