What the Queen said during her Christmas message last year

Her Majesty paid tribute to her late husband, Prince Phillip, during last year's 'personal' and moving Queen's speech. During her speech, the monarch spoke about the “one familiar laugh missing” in her household as she spent Christmas Day without the Duke of Edinburgh.
