Californian Reacts | Platinum Jubilee - BEST MOMENTS! 

Charles is known for that when going and visiting parts of the country on behalf of his mother (she likes to visit parts of the country about every 6 years, or now did do) will go behind the railings to talk with people lol. Though during that is extremely rare.

No significance in the colour but she always wears bright colours so she can be seen in a crowd

@@lilyliz3071 Good to know! Looks great and she really stands out. Pleasant color. Outstanding, classy fashion.

@@lilyliz3071 There's a saying the Monarch needs to be seen to be believed

@@californianreacts The whole series of events that involves the Royal Family was arranged by the Lord Chamberlain, is how it always is they're the head of the Royal Household (goes back to even Shakespeare's time, though then they were also the licensor of plays as well for a period of time the patron of his acting company excluding James VI and I's time) arranges pretty much everything like this including weddings and funerals. Was formerly Lord Peel until 31st March then on Andrew Parker (Baron Parker) the former head of MI5.

I am Portuguese too but living in Portugal. For four days I couldn't take my eyes from Sky News. I followed every single documentary about the Jubilee. I simply adore the Royal Family especially HMQ. From Portugal: God save the Queen!!! 🇵🇹🇵🇹🇬🇧🇬🇧

@@simabelhinha4973 Only the British can put up a show like this ,it was amazing the amont of work that whent to commemorate the 70 years of Her Majesty on the throne of this great country,and Commonwealth. Is moments like this that makes proud to be a British Citizen. Portugal,the United kingdom oldest ally, sence 1147!!

​​@@riotagus Yes that's right.Something I was only made aware of recently. 🇵🇹🇬🇧 We've been allies since before Medieval times.

Portugal is a beautiful country have been there a few times and great people

@@robertlangley1664 Thank you,its a wonderfull country indid and i can vouch for that.

Completely agreed! It's a wonderful and much needed event and celebration to be having, a shining star with positivity, hope, and bringing people together from around the world.

Massive design flaw in your constitution not having a separate head of state and government. Both the US and the UK had massive political tidal waves of change and shake up, which coutry looks more united? If her majesty asked her subjects to fight tomorrow 99%, no I'll be generous, 98% would happily lay fown their life for Queen and country. If biden asked the American electorate to fight for him would they? A good chunk would refuse simply because it's biden asking.

@@libertasdemocratiam887, never thought I’d agree on the idea, but actually I agree. The monarchy has a critical role to play for cohesive culture. Maybe because it drains the emotional energy from politics, and we could do with that!

I agree Jack, our Royal Family is not perfect but our darling Queen is pretty close😍

@@paulinemaclellan8204 Agree Pauline... NO family is perfect, will always have disagreements and life issues,. The added spotlight and scrutiny on the royals, only adds to this.

Thats really lovely

🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. Our Queen ...

Except that’s a lie, never before has there been so much hate towards the queen and the royal family. You only see what you allow yourself to see. I saw mass hate, the royal family does not belong in the current age and as the old people die off so with the royal family. Not necessary in 2022 to have royalty in a first world country and a waste of money.

That's very true.

all the republican types have come out of the woodwork to cry for attention, a lot of bitterness where I live anyway

That warm glow was felt around the world 🙂

🤮

Yes, so British!

We have to be like that, it rains souch here if we didn't laugh we'd cry. The whole weekend was so British it was nearing embarrassing, her majesty got stuck in traffic, we had floats and even cars breaking down during the pageant, darleks going rougue. Thankfully the weather was kind...for the most part.

@@libertasdemocratiam887 How was it 'nearing embarrassment...'? We will NEVER celebrate a platinum jubilee again! 'Flying our flag' is a rarity! The car breaking down was hilarious! The organisation of the whole 4 days was brilliant and I was very proud to be British!

The horse droppings are worth a fortune. It’s prime organic fertiliser for plants and soil. I know this because a gardener once told me an army of collectors would rush and bag it up to sell it to gardeners and allotments.

She and Phillip worked hard to bring in the commonwealth( leaving poor Charles with his grandparents : but I'm so glad many far off countries came over to join us!!

God less you.

Thank you so much for your respect 🇬🇧❤️🇺🇸

Hi kizzyr glad you like the queen . I would like you to know the queen, all royal family and us all made Megan markle so welcome and happy for harry and her gave them a wonderfull wedding with no racism at all.and they threw it all back in our face and left no respect whatsoever and made the queen so I'll as her husband was dying.her and harry are so evil. I hope you are well and take care of your self .glad to here from you.

I loved her tea time video with Paddington Bear. The full two minute video is on The Royal Family RU-vid channel for Kids. Other channels only showed 1 min versions.

I think even the Queen was moved by her people singing God save the Queen it did look like she did feel some emotion at the end as they showed it was not just a party & time off work.

Why do we want God to save Liz Mountbatten especially?

@@what-uc why not?

Fantastic to hear! I'm not even British and feel proud. Wonderful work over there to everyone 😀

Me too , it's been 👍 👌

@@californianreacts Awesome comment. Respect....

I thought you were going to say an English man in New York 🎵 🎶 😆. Just my little joke 🇬🇧

As you said, the royals don't have any power. The PM is President in everything but name, and he/she only serves under the Queen in a figurative sense. The Queen can't manipulate policy of Parliament in any way whatsoever. Well, I hope those little sprogs get used to waving at the lowly plebs, because that's their jobs from now on!

Take it from a Mexican. Many of us wish we had kept our independent monarchy. Though few, those were the best days for our country. It is a million times better to live in a productive, constitutional monarchy than a crumbling, failed narcorepublic.

Completely agree! Watched a few more angles of the flypast and can't get enough. Incredible!

I think it was like 81% favourability for the monarch in a number of recent polls. Our traditions stand strong it seems.

Simlarly in 2005 when London was awarded the Olympic and Paralympic Games for 2012. The British seem to hate themselves. The 2012 Olympics were great from start to finish. The opening and closing ceremonies for all should have made you proud to be British and the Paralympic Games were the best ever and since.

There was a rapper in the concert where they referred to the individual parts of the U.K.. The 3 lions for England, the Welsh dragon and then the Irish flag. Not the emblem for Northern Ireland. The southern Irish one. Then no Scottish flag. Most of it went well but not quite without a hitch.

​@@CandleLight1974 The vast majority of this country are VERY proud to be British Unfortunately there are subversive forces at work that are trying their best to destroy all that true Brits hold dear.

If she reaches her 100th birthday 🎂 there will be a huge party for her.

And you good sir! Appreciate the comment, Andrew 🙂

Respect to you ma'am, loved reading this comment but who cares where you are from or where I am from, she is a queen of the people in any country and a role model to all. GSTQ

'His' duty????

@@scousemouse9715 Whoops.👍

@@scousemouse9715 With the line "an individual who does his duty", she is speaking about people generally, and she is using the generic 'he', which refers to anyone, just as 'man' in 'mankind' refers to anyone. It's only the semi-literate PC brigade who wantonly misinterpreted the generic 'he' as referring only to men. As an example: In the drama series, Downton Abbey, the stubborn and competitive Dowager Countess and Cousin Isobel set each other a challenge. The former said: "May the best man win", even though both were women.

Hi..If you consider her your Queen then she is exactly that..we share her with you and around the world.

And appreciate your comment, White Dwarf! Went to London specifically in 2018 (and Scotland and Ireland when I was younger) and can't wait to go back! Saw so much, yet missed an incredible amount. So much to see, so much to do! Looking forward to exploring London and the rest of England since it look so beautiful.

@@californianreacts Don't forget Wales.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Please just don't forget to come back.... 🤗 You and your family are always welcome 💖 Take Care and Stay Safe 🇬🇧💖🤗

What the hell is a ‘patrion ‘?

​@@paulschnyder938 • A typo.

Why is that, in particular, your idea of being patriotic?

The Queen is so up-to-date with everything. Green also a 'nod' to the Duke.

I loved the black hat pin, what that said to me is that she is still in mourning for her beloved “strength and stay” the Duke of Edinburgh. 💜🇬🇧💜🇬🇧

Also, on the different parts of the celebration, she wore a red outfit, a blue outfit, and a green outfit. These are the colors of the regiments of the Household Guards, and her tribute to the different Royal Colonels that represent each one.

It was absolutely beautiful and stunning, I'm excited to watch more events since I have yet to see most parts in full. You live in a wonderful country with spectacular history and tradition, we love it over here! 🙂

She and her heirs have leeched off the taxpayer for generations. She paid off Andrews victim to the tune of £12 million of taxpayers money.

Subjects..yes you are right. Boris the turn coat was booed..jolly good.

Monarchy, as the Queen has demonstrated when needed, is indeed a nationally unifying force as you say. She has pulled us together so many times and the words she put together at the height of the COVID pandemic here were heartfelt and so right. She said "We WILL meet again". And did we ever.... No President can be this unifying as they are politically biased by definition. For example can anyone say the USA is in any way unified now?

@@1chish exactly! 2 countries shaken by political earthquakes in 2016, both still reeling from it, but only one is united, the one with a head of state and head of government not the same person performing the same role. When people ask what's the point of a constitutional monarchy this is it.

Talking about Andrew and young girls or Charles and his side piece

@@isay207 Just go away and be miserable on your own.

@@isay207 Charles does not have a side piece. He has been married to Camilla for a long time now. There is a vast difference between "young girls" and a 17-year-old over the age of consent, as I'm sure you you know.

@@isay207 ODFOD.

Because WE are the BIRTHRIGHT nation of the BULL of ISRAEL as We fly the United colours of Jack prophesied to JOSEPH!!

He should've known better given the life his uncle had to leave in exile.

How I agree wirh you

Hi kalipsokinse God bless you for your comments.harry and Megan are both evil kicked the queen when her husband was dying all the lies made her so I'll we all made Megan so welcome gave her a nice wedding and both harry and her just kicked us all in the teeth with all their lies. God be with you and much love from Scotland.

@@jeanmcdonald7786 Oh you are so welcome Jean McDonald from Scotland. I'm married to a McKeown! LOL

Nutmeg and Hazard lol I like it 😆

Ginge and Cringe

"Gruesome Twosome" 😂

Harry is a very silly little boy and megan is a nobody who wants to be a somebody . I hope they never return to these shores, parasites both of them. It was a fitting celebration for a great monarch. So proud to be British and a royal subject

It was actually the gob smacked look on Princess Beatrice's face when the gruesome twosome asked her to move along and let them have the aisle seats. i am so proud of her for standing her ground and saying a firm "No!" to them!

Squeaks Vid: I was there in Green Park with my 80 odd year old mum and aunt: trying to get near the stage with over 1 million people squashed together while my aunt complained that Tony Bennett wasn't British etc.... .... and the police going mad at all of us for turning up!!! I'll never forget it😁💯😂❤️

The crowds weee even greater for this Platinum Jubilee. I live in London and I’ve NEVER seen so much of it packed with people (I took part in both Golden & Diamond Jubilee celebrations)

@@valerieenglish1003 ...treasured memories...❤

@@missmarplesapprentice5219 We couldn't get home on the direct train route and then changed somewhere to actually catch a bus at 3:30 am to then walk half a mile home to then get in my aunts car to run her to Leatherhead because her son was coming at 6am to take her to Devon!! WHY the hellsbells did I think it was a good idea to take two old dears to a rock concert at Buckingham Palace!!? My mother fell over the pavement in front of the Dorchester but luckily she wasn't hurt: I then realized the world had descended on Green Park and no way could we get near the stage or over the road as 1 million idiots wanted to celebrate with Queen!!! It was nuts: but a fun memory! 😁🤣

@@valerieenglish1003 Lol...quite an adventure! I'm impressed at your mother using her tripping skills to her best advantage outside the Dorchester no less, elder folk are known to be canny and I can't help but wonder if she hoped for a sit down with a nice cup of tea there! Joking aside, thank goodness your mum was okay. It was fun to read your comment, your aunt and Tony Bennet, made my morning, thank you. 🌞

Sending love from Scotland to you

It was a pleasure watching the celebrations and always learning more, loved it all, Lynda!

You're very welcome! Welcome to the emotional roller-coaster 😀

I'm the same. I just turned sixty. Hip hip hooray! 🥂🌞

Sounds like a wonderful time! I can only get a feel of what it actually was like through comments such as yours ☺

Agree with all of this!!!!

@Nehemiah Scudder "gruesome twosome" haha, love it!

God bless you dabj sending my love to you frscotland

Other than marriage and the birth of my children/grandchildren the most exciting moment of my life was when I was once in the Headingley area of Leeds (my home town) a Lancaster bomber flew over at 500 feet (or less) to fly over the crowd at the famous cricket ground. The noise from those Rolls Royce engines was tremendous - no wonder prince Louis was holding his ears - I still get goose pimples thinking of it now. An experience of a lifetime.

@@steveglufc There is only one thing better than a Merlin engine - FOUR Merlin engines!

@SUTTYMCFC One of the Greatest generation then. Total respects.

I heard that there are only 2 operational Lancasters left in the world now, one here in the UK, and one in Canada.

claire noon you lucky person

@@amandamiller304 I know! I was also in London for the Diamond Jubilee flotilla of boats on the Thames, and I truly never expected to get this glorious bonus 10 years later. A joy and a privilege.

@@clairenoon4070 wow twice blessed

@@clairenoon4070 I love you for this. xx 🌞

Glad you could join in with us.

SueB .... It was a pleasure to have you join us ....

Yep,. she does it so she stands out in the crowd.

Her first couture dresser explained - delicately - that being of 'small stature' she needed to wear bright colours so she would easily be seen.

Ha! I love it! Great quote and she chooses great colors, fantastic classy style.

Green was Prince Phillip’s favourite colour

Thank you Rich for the information on the Lancaster bomber, not overly familiar with bombers outside of the U.S. during WWII. Fantastic aircraft all around in the RAF!

Aw Bless you ... And Thank you for your service .... A true Hero .... Paula UK .... English

Incredible! Thanks for sharing Gill, always very fascinating to me hearing this 🙂

@@californianreacts Here`s another strange family fact .My late husband was a child of his Father`s second marriage ,in later life .We married in 1959 but my Father-in-law had already died, actually in 1938,one month after I was born

Wow, that's incredible. Stay safe and take good care. Wish you and the queen all the best.

@@northbreeze0111 Thanks ,I`m good ,hope you are too

@@gillcawthorn7572 just fine! Take care mate 🙂

It was the PM Boris Johnson and his latest wife that were booed not the wonderful Harry and Meghan...don't blame them for leaving, Charlie made it very clear there wasn't a place for them in the Royal family ...everyone i know hope that the 2 adulterers never get to the thrown. Yes I've lived here in UK all my 70 years and can't help wondering how much this 4 day event cost me from the taxes I pay?

​@@caroledwards3465 • Don't fret...the event cost you nothing as a taxpayer, apart from the usual amount of your Council tax that goes to policing. The celebrations were funded by commercial businesses, great and small. For the record, Boris and Carrie did get booed, and, as I'm sure you're perfectly aware, so did Harry and Meghan...very loudly, even though some of the crowd had remained silent but turned their backs to the couple. As for Charles making it clear there was no place for them in the family, how do you know? Have you witnessed their interactions? It has been reported that they visited Charles prior to the Thanksgiving service to ask for more money, and Charles rightly refused. Harry and Meghan were seated in St. Paul's among the non-working Royals as befits their status, and Beatrice and Eugenie were on the same row. It was their own decision to become non-working Royals. It wasn't forced upon them. Considering the false accusations made by Meghan about the Royal Family, which were backed up by Harry, the invitation to join the celebrations shows that the family do still consider the pair as family members...as does the fact that Harry is still a Cousellor of State. The fact that both wore recording devices is the reason why none of the family wanted to say much to them, and I don't blame them. Also, Harry and Meghan also insulted the whole population of the UK when they accused us all of being racists. They have only themselves to blame for the boos. Diana was an adulteress, and began her series of affairs long before Charles and Camilla did theirs.

@@caroledwards3465 they were heavily booed on the way out and that is well documented

You should all read less from the right wing media ...and as for Diana have an affair before Charles...he was having the affair before they were even married and it continued and never stopped ( Tampon Gate! )..Charles has admitted it in TV interviews....I think you're racism is showing through with your ,what seems like,, hatred of the lovely Harry and Meghan...think they made the right decision to leave the "firm". I don't think you live in the real world Maureen bet you voted for Trump and live in the USA....Best wishes from the North Norfolk coast UK

@@caroledwards3465 you're not very intelligent are you? and as a betting woman you lose hands down.

Appreciate the information on the Red Arrows and Lancaster Bomber, Keith 🙂

In fact the Lancaster was the only bomber in WWII capable of delivering the 12,000 Ib 'Tall Boy' and the 22,000 Ib 'Grand Slam' earthquake bombs.

@@1chish The designer of the Lancaster, also designed the Vulcan.

@@iriscollins7583 He did indeed. But sadly Roy Chadwick died in 1947 just as the Vulcan designs were getting into metal. The leap of technology in a few years was phenomenal.

@Nehemiah Scudder Sorry your point being what exactly?

Thank you

Thank you and respect to you.

It was a pleasure watching such an event and imagining what it must be like to be British and at the celebrating. Fantastic all around! Appreciate the comment, Vanessa 🙂

Mary was never Queen of Teck, she was a Princess , but not a Royal Princess. She WAS Queen of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions, and Empress of India. Her mother was first cousin to Queen Victoria. Her husband was Victoria's grandson so, therefore, her second cousin.

Hello fellow Californian! I've been watching footage from the 50th jubilee and is another spectacular event. I would love to go to a celebration such as this in the UK. Nothing anywhere close to this here in the US. Quite boring here actually haha

@@californianreacts Try to visit when the cheese rolling competition happens. I would welcome your review. Also the ale, cider, whiskey and more... all wonderful.

"I can't wear beige, no one would know who I am."

Another of her quotes on wearing bright colours “I have to be seen to be believed.”

Not quite true. Whatever the Queen does or wears it will have significance and a meaning. The green outfit was a nod to her late husband's favourite colour and the colour green itself represents Springtime, hope and positivity.

@@1chish My thoughts are that her majesty purposely wore green as a subtle protest against the EU's attempt to split Northern Ireland from the UK. She does not want division but continued good relations with Eira

@@zekbaker4727 I can understand why you would think that but that would be far too political for her. She treads a very fine line between being non political and making a point.
