The Queen is marking her Platinum Jubilee this year – and we’re being treated to an extended bank holiday to celebrate, from June 2-5.
The Queen has achieved a lot in the past 70 years, acceding to the throne at the age of 25 and dedicating herself to a life of service ever since.
This is one of the sweetest shots taken of two-year-old Princess Margaret (seated) with her sister Elizabeth, aged seven.
The same year, a smiling Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh attended the opening night of the Royal Festival Hall in London.
