REIGN SUPREME: Queen Elizabeth's life has been a journey like no other. Throughout her reign, she has been the United Kingdom's symbol of continuity and stability. Her many visits to the nations around the world have won her the unwavering respect of her subjects and peers. The Queen has brought new trends of modernisation and openness within the monarchy and has kept the institution relevant in a rapidly changing world. Elizabeth's father became King and she subsequently became first in line to the throne. After the death of her father on the 6th February 1952, Elizabeth ascended to the throne and pledged her devotion and loyalty to the monarchy, vowing to serve it for as long as she lived. During her reign, the Queen has not only had to contend with issues of a public nature to do with the Kingdom, but also ones of a personal nature within the Royal Family. Queen Elizabeth II has steadfastly gone about her duties as both Princess and Queen of the British Empire. Amongst it all, she remains true to her cause, upholding the British Monarchy in the face of an ever-changing world. She is, without any doubt, one of the most popular Monarchs in history. Long may she Reign Supreme. THE EARLY YEARS - DUTY & SACRIFICE: This is the true story behind the reign of United Kingdom's greatest and longest ruling Monarch in the nation's history. Her longevity sometimes means that the real stories of her early years as ruling Monarch are lost. From then to the present-day Elizabeth has faced challenges to her reign from all sides. The once deferential press declared open season on the House of Windsor and suddenly a very private family was thrust into the often-brutal media spotlight. The quest to become a modern Monarch has been Elizabeth's biggest challenge to date. Includes rare archive black & white and colour footage including the Queen's Coronation, Princess Anne and Princess Margaret's weddings, the wedding of Prince Charles to Diana, as well as extraordinary footage from the life of the Queen.
