Queen and Country introduced by David Dimbleby with Julian Pettifer and Richard Lindley
As the Jubilee celebrations begin, a look at how the Queen has done her work, as Head of State, Head of the Commonwealth and Defender of the Faith; and how that job has changed since her accession.
A chance to recall the significant Royal journeys abroad, and some of the crises in which the Palace was involved. Has the Monarchy been the only unifying force in a fragmenting realm-or is it increasingly irrelevant?
Lord Home, Gough Whitlam , Lee Kuan Yew , Michael Manley , Sir Michael Carver and the Archbishop of Canterbury are among those who talk of the Queen's role*
