The eyes of the world were on Britain tonight and she didn't let us down.
One of the most spectacular and entertaining concerts London has ever seen was staged as a Diamond Jubilee tribute to the Queen, with the country's favourite pop stars - knights and dames among them - and a host of international names putting on a stunning performance.

There were fireworks, laughs, Union Flags everywhere and barely a dry eye in the house as Prince Charles brought the curtain down on the night with a personal and very moving tribute to his mother, and his sick father.

The Queen had taken her seat in the royal box for her star-studded Diamond Jubilee concert, but was without the Duke of Edinburgh who has been taken to hospital with a bladder infection.
The drama threatened to overshadow the concert, but Queen Elizabeth drew on the experience of all her 60 years on the throne to see it through - and what a show she was rewarded with.
