VIDEO SUNDAY - THE QUEEN'S CHRISTMAS MESSAGE THROUGH THE YEARS


Christmas falls on a Sunday... which I now realize you probably already knew before you arrived here at this post.

Anyway, we usually run a "Video Sunday" feature so that Ye Olde Caretaker of Toobworld has to do as little work as possible.

So on this holiday stuffed with traditions, why mess with Tradition?

Earlier today we inducted Queen Elizabeth II into the Television Crossover Hall of Fame, choosing Christmas Day as the proper time since she has broadcast a televised Christmas message since 1957.  With that in mind, here are a selection of those broadcasts, beginning with that first one and finishing up with last year's.  (Lucky for you I didn't seek out all 58 of them!)

You're on, Your Majesty:

1957



1968

Merry Christmas!
