The Queen's Speeches

From a young Princess to a dignified and wise monarch, Elizabeth has spent a lifetime of service, offering words to celebrate, to comfort and to inspire her people. Each formal speech has been carefully crafted, rehearsed and adapted to represent the thoughts and feelings of our Queen and the nation. A leader by example, her influence is her greatest power. We take a look at some of the Queen's most famous speeches, including those made after the deaths of Diana, Princess of Wales and the Queen Mother, her annual Christmas broadcasts and, most recently, her address to the nation concerning the Coronavirus pandemic. Join us as we look back at some of Her Majesty's most iconic speeches.
