The royal family

The royal family has been under the media spotlight in recent weeks and will return again to great public attention with the start of the Queen's Golden Jubilee celebrations from 1 to 4 June.

Events will be held across the UK in the summer and in Commonwealth countries around the world. Many people will organise street parties and local events.
