Festival 77: 1969: Royal Family

on BBC Two England

Introduced by Rene Cutforth
A programme from the BBCtv Archives for each of the past 25 years:
When this film was first shown on BBC1 in June 1969 it made television history with its unique picture of a year in the life of the Queen and her family. Since then it has been seen by record audiences throughout the world. To people everywhere it was a revelation of what the Royal Family is really like and of the unseen part of their job.
A joint BBC/ITV production
