Comedian Lee Mack made a dig at Prime Minister Boris Johnson on stage at the Platinum Party at the Palace as he was seated just metres away with the royal family. The Freeze the Fear host took to the stage at the star-studded concert to mark Her Majesty the Queen's 70 years on the throne.
Almost immediately he made a jibe at the Prime Minister's expense to cheers from the crowd. "Welcome to the Party at the Palace," he said. "We are here outside the gates of Buckingham Palace for a party of a lifetime."
And he added: "Finally we can say the words party and gate and its positive." The joke was greeted with laughter from the audience gathered in The Mall for the celebrations who include people who worked on the frontline during the Covid pandemic.
