Jubilee!

I did wonder how Anne felt about the chosen image? ( her ex being there!)

Definitely pre Diana. Lord Mountbatten is on it.

Ok jeni ...have found the image ...think it was from Queen's silver jubilee

You'll have to scroll through several images until you find it

It was pouring with rain, the Queen was sailing up the Thames in a huge gilded barge while tens of thousands of dripping wet people waved Union Jacks and cheered their heads off. Only in Britain......Eat your heart out, rest of the World.

jacey so it's not just me!

I saw it on sky! It's something like bascules according to google!

Yes I agree ...I thought the BBC coverage was not up to their usual standard.

I,too, wondered about that huge picture from the Queen's earlier Jubilee ...I looked for and didn't see Diana either.

We didn't actually see the 'arms' (can't remember the proper word) of the bridge go right up for the Queen's boat because they were off talking to somebody.

I think the BBC coverage left a bit to be desired.

I watched the sky version as I was not impressed the bbc. That is unusual!

I thought the commentating on the river pageant was very poor - there wasn't much detail on what certain boats were and who were in them!? I can't believe that I would beable to stand for 3 hours, as the Queen did, when I reach her age. She has served this country exceedingly well and deserves all the praise we are able to give.

I couldn't see her. But it was only on for a very short time?

Surely not? If that's true, it will cause a great hue and cry in the tabloids!

That's Photo-shop for you!

Was it my imagination , or was Diana airbrushed out of that large black and white photo of of the silver jubilee?
