The Queen's Diamond Decades - 1950s
S1 E3:
In 1952, the sudden death of King George VI changed Elizabeth's life for ever. Our monarch was just 25, and mother to Prince Charles, three, and Princess Anne, 18 months, when she came to the Throne. Winston Churchill was her first Prime Minister. Britain was still bandaging its war wounds and the Coronation sparked the biggest party since VE Day.
