Royal Family news – ‘Real fear of tension’ at Queen’s Jubilee with fears Netflix crew could cause ‘MAJOR distraction’

Platinum Jubilee celebrations – Saturday June 4

COURTIERS are said to be “moving heaven and earth” for the Queen, accompanied by members of the Royal Family, to attend the Derby at 5.30pm at Epsom racecourse.

It is Britain’s richest flat race – and the only Classic the Queen has never won.

Reach For The Moon, her horse with the best chance of winning, has already been pulled from the 243rd edition of the event. Around 40 retired and current jockeys, dressed in the Queen’s silks, will form a guard of honour.

One of them will be 79-year-old Willie Carson who rode Dunfermline, the Queen’s Oaks winner in Silver Jubilee year, 1977.

Proms In The Park will be held in London and there will be a Jubilee Picnic on the Long Walk at Windsor.

The BBC’s Platinum Party at the Palace begins at 8pm, attended by up to 22,000 members of the public, which includes 10,000 who won tickets in a ballot and 5,000 key workers.
Some of the world’s biggest stars will appear in the three-hour live concert to celebrate the Queen’s 70-year reign.

Singer George Ezra and Radio 1’s Clara Amfo will be among a host of famous names appearing on a trio of high-tech concert stages that will be built outside the palace.

The three-hour party will be hosted on BBC1 by Newsnight’s Kirsty Young and Capital Radio breakfast show host Roman Kemp.

BBC bosses will announce the full line-up later.
