Her Majesty was first telelvised with 405 lines so it's only right and proper. Look forward to seeing the off-screen shots.
Apparently it was the Queen's personal wish that her coronation be televised, against the advice of her courtiers. As I wrote in a recent BVWS Bulletin article:

Quote:IN THE SIGHT OF ALL THE PEOPLE
Then the Queen arising out of her Chair, supported as before, the Sword of State being carried before her, shall go to the Altar, and make her solemn Oath in the sight of all the people to observe the premisses.
On 2 June 1953 Queen Elizabeth II was crowned. Thanks to the largest ever outside broadcast (OB) in the UK, 75% of people in the UK saw her coronation live on TV; more than had ever seen a British monarch being crowned before.
