The Times marks the moment with a striking photo of the Queen from her coronation in 1953, alongside the words: “A life in service.” The paper’s back page carries a quotation from her Christmas broadcast in 1957, the first to be televised: “I cannot lead you into battle. I do not give you laws or administer justice but I can do something else: I can give you my heart and my devotion to all these old islands, and to all the peoples of our brotherhood of nations.”
