Relive the historic Golden Jubilee again and again

The Queen's triumphant jubilee weekend to be released on 成人论坛 Video 22 July 2002


Following what was the 成人论坛's most ambitious live broadcasting operation in its history, David Dimbleby introduces a video memoir of the remarkable weekend that captured the public's imagination. This splendid souvenir provides a look back over the spectacular four days, which confirmed the Queen as treasured figurehead for the proud British people, the Commonwealth and even the world at large.

David Dimbleby said, "I was not involved in the broadcasting of the Silver Jubilee so I remember it for our own street party - with barbecues on Putney Common and children running races. For the Golden Jubilee, I had a grandstand seat outside Buckingham Palace. It was a spectacular place to watch the grand parade down The Mall and the fireworks."


Over forty hours of coverage on 成人论坛 television and radio has been condensed down to a magnificent memento of the country's celebrations during the Jubilee weekend in early June, during which hundreds of millions of viewers from all around the world - including the USA, Australia, Canada, Portugal, New Zealand, South Africa, Japan, France, India, Sweden, Ireland, Germany and Denmark - tuned in to see and hear the celebrations.


A team of more than 500 people, 150 cameras, 150 trucks and approximately 1000 miles of cable provided the 成人论坛's coverage of the Queen's golden jubilee. Nick Vaughan-Barratt, Creative Director, Events, who was the overall director of the jubilee events said, "I was privileged to play a very minor role in the silver jubilee as a junior 成人论坛 trainee. A quarter of a century later, to be asked to co-ordinate the 成人论坛's coverage of this unique and historic occasion was a thrill beyond measure and I will never forget the intense sense of pride I felt to be part of such an impressive operation."

  • Prince Charles' tribute to HM The Queen
  • Lighting the jubilee beacon
  • Fireworks display from the roof and forecourt of Buckingham Palace
