Prince George set to play a key role in the Queen’s Christmas Broadcast
Prince George will reportedly be included in the queen’s speech this year, which always airs on Christmas Day.
Royal correspondent, Roya Nikkhah, reported on Prince George’s important Christmas role in 2019. Nikkhah wrote, “With key royals ill, absent or banished, the little prince will play a starring role in the queen’s Christmas Day broadcast.”
USA Today also said that ‘video footage of the pudding preparations also was recorded to be broadcast on the afternoon of Christmas Day during the queen’s annual Christmas speech to the nation.’
It is also said that Prince George will make his royal ‘Christmas march’ debut on Christmas day.
The Queen’s Christmas Broadcast
This Christmas, Queen Elizabeth will carry on the tradition she started in 1957, addressing the nation with a special holiday broadcast reflecting on the year and the royal milestones of 2019.
The royal family’s Instagram account said that the broadcast was filmed in the Green Drawing Room at Windsor Castle.
The Queen’s speech will be broadcast at about 17:00 (SAST) on Christmas Day.
The Royal British Legion’s ‘Together at Christmas’ initiative
The Queen, the Legion’s Patron, accompanied by Prince Charles, Prince William and Prince George, joined forces to prepare special Royal British Legion Christmas puddings at Buckingham Palace this year.
The puddings will become the centrepieces of next year’s ‘Together at Christmas’ get togethers, hosted by the charity.
The charity launched their new community, in the hope they can provide extra support to the Armed Forces community at annual festive get-togethers in The UK and abroad.
The events will start in 2020 and be hosted at high street locations, care homes, and other locations across the country. It is hoped that they will provide a sense of community and companionship to help combat the loneliness and isolation experienced by some members of the Armed Forces community over festive periods.
