Directed by: Edward Mirzoeff

Overview

Join the BBC cameras as they go behind the glitter of Buckingham Palace and the pomp of Windsor Castle for a close-up look at the minutia of the monarchy. Culled from a year of unprecedented access to Queen Elizabeth II, the documentary trails the queen as she interacts one-on-one with her family, her staff, her public, and international heads of state.

Elizabeth R. is a once-in-a-lifetime glimpse into the everyday life of a queen.
