Queen Elizabeth plans to break with tradition at this year\u0027s Royal Ascot.
: “It’s the end of an era. Carriages are no longer possible for Her Majesty. It’s not the ride that’s the problem, but the steep steps that are needed to get into and down from the landau.” Royal Ascot typically begins with the Queen and other members of her family arriving from Windsor in horse-drawn landaus.
They then watch the races from the Royal Enclosure.Meanwhile, Queen Elizabeth’s never-seen-before home movies are set to feature in a new BBC documentary. The monarch’s life will be the focus of ‘Elizabeth: The Unseen Queen’, a 75-minute documentary that will include behind-the-scenes footage from landmark moments in her reign. “This documentary is an extraordinary glimpse into a deeply personal side of the royal family that is rarely seen, and it’s wonderful to be able to share it with the nation as we mark her Platinum Jubilee,” Simon Young, the BBC’s commissioning editor for history, said recently.tap here to see other videos from our teamClaire Popplewell, the creative director for BBC Studio Events Productions, believes the upcoming documentary will be “special”, and she can’t wait for people to see the family footage. “As program-makers who have previously worked closely with the Royal Household on ceremonial and celebratory broadcast events and programs, the production team were under no illusion quite how special having access to this very personal archive was,” she said. “Being able to draw upon the self-recorded history of a young Princess Elizabeth and her wider family – and allowing the Queen to tell us her own story – is the very heart of this film.”
