Queen Elizabeth II will deliver her 69th Christmas address to the United Kingdom on 25 December, aired on Christmas Day, and typically lasting around 10 minutes.
Queen Elizabeth II will pay tribute to Prince Philip – her late husband of 73 years - in a pre-recorded “particularly personal” Christmas Day message, according to The Telegraph. The Duke of Edinburgh died in April aged 99.
The traditional address to the nation and the Commonwealth, where the 95-year-old monarch reflects on the passing year, is to be screened at 15:00 GMT on Saturday.
The broadcast was recorded last week, according to the BBC, before a decision had been taken by Buckingham Palace that the Queen should stay in Windsor Castle and not travel to Sandringham, as is traditional.
