The nine best moments from the Queen's Jubilee weekend: Prince George and Wills singing Sweet Caroline, 'National Treasures' on the icon buses and Paddington with the Queen

The nation has been united in celebrations for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee over four fun-filled days of street parties, concerts and parades. Her Majesty the Queen Elizabeth II was joined by the Royal Family for a host of huge events to mark her 70 year reign.

The Queen, 96, delivered her own verdict at the end of her Platinum Jubilee commemorations, saying she was "deeply touched" by what she had seen over the past four days. She said: "When it comes to how to mark 70 years as your Queen, there is no guidebook to follow. It really is a first.

"But I have been humbled and deeply touched that so many people have taken to the streets to celebrate my Platinum Jubilee. While I may not have attended every event in person, my heart has been with you all; and I remain committed to serving you to the best of my ability, supported by my family."
