Back then His Majesty celebrated the power of the wireless to unite all the people of the Empire, and wished them a Happy Christmas."Through one of the marvels of modern Science, I am enabled, this Christmas Day, to speak to all my peoples throughout the Empire," was his opening line.The Queen's first Christmas message to be televised was in 1957
The King's Christmas message was recorded in the quire of St George's Chapel, where the royal family sat during the Queen's committal service, and during the broadcast the choir of St George's Chapel, Windsor performs the National Anthem and sings a carol. The picture also shows foliage decorations that have been placed among the stalls in the quire, that feature holly, berried ivy and red skimmia.
Her Majesty wore a chrysanthemum brooch that she also sported during her honeymoon in 1947 at Broadlands country house, Hampshire. She also sat next to a framed picture of her and Philip.The monarch, in what is likely to be regarded as her most fulsome public tribute to her “beloved Philip” since he died, remarked how his “mischievous, enquiring twinkle was as bright at the end as when I first set eyes on him”, as she empathised with families who had lost loved ones this year.
