Queen shows younger generation the ropes

- By ANGUS HOWARTH

Viewers will get a behindthe-scenes glimpse of how the Queen passes on her knowledge and experience to younger members of the royal family in a new ITV series that focuses on her role as head of the Commonweal­th.

Queen Of The World will contain exclusive footage of the monarch interactin­g with other global leaders as well as the Prince of Wales, the Duke of Cambridge and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

Filmed over the course of a year, the two hour-long programmes will also draw from the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh’s private film archives.

The series will reflect on the continued importance in which the Queen holds the Commonweal­th and how it has grown during her reign.

Executive producer Nicolas Kent said: “It’s been fascinatin­g to see how she has passed on her experience to the younger generation­s of the royal family.”
