The Queen’s performance with the animated bear drew laughter and loud applause from the overflow crowd at the concert outside Buckingham Palace that was the highlight of the third of four days of festivities celebrating her Platinum Jubilee.

A Buckingham palace spokesperson said;

“While the Queen may not be attending the concert in person, she was very keen that people understood how much it meant to her and that all those watching had a great time.”

Queen Elizabeth II did not attend the concert in person due to what the palace describes as “episodic mobility issues.”
