With preparations under way to mark the Queen's Platinum Jubilee, all eyes are on May and its promise of an extra-long - four-day weekend of celebrations.
But this Sunday, February 6 is actually the big day - the 70-year anniversary of the date Queen Elizabeth ll took the throne.
While she has made a speech to the nation to mark Accession Day, in which she thanked people for the support she has received during her reign and expressed her wish that Camilla will be known as Queen Consort when Charles succeeds her to the throne, the celebrations are being planned for the summer when the weather is expected to be better.
