1065: Princess Elizabeth's first radio broadcast - 1940
The Queen had a good first show. No accapella name-check jingles, but she surely left an impression. It was an early double act, with Princess Margaret by her side, just chipping in at the end, but not doing the travel news.
\n\n\nEnjoy here the immaculate first broadcast from then then Princess Elizabeth, as part of Children\u2019s Hour from the BBC Home Service on 13th October 1940. Anyone who doubts how language and delivery changes over the years, even in the Queen\u2019s case, should listen to this.
