Thank you for uploading and sharing these wonderful moments of the past. Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, was simply the embodiment of the best of Great Britain.
An historic piece of film...it was the LAST time the Queen rode side saddle {horseback} to take the salute at her birthday parade. All subsequent parades (since) have had her riding in a carriage, or simply standing on an elevated staging platform (as in the last 2 Windsor Castle Trooping the Colour ceremonies)
Thank you so much for this! I really appreciate hearing the voice of the late Tom Fleming. He had a great voice for such occasions and just as important, he knew when to talk and when NOT to talk and let the pictures and event speak for themselves.
It brings home, so forcibly, the value of the monarchial system to a country. Would one find such love and affection towards a president or a dictator, I think not.
This is a wonderful video, thanks DavyFlute. I was in the parade, one of the marching Scout and Guiding band. Seen as very outdated and twee now, I loved the pomp and ceremony.
@@michaelscott2445 The Guards Depot at Pirbright in Surrey was where Foot Guards and Household Cavalry received their basic training on enlistment. It was exclusively a Guards establishment. Sadly it closed in the late 80's and basic training was transferred to the Infantry Training Centre at Catterick, Yorkshire.
The field officer made a mistake with orders at 1:28:50. Accidentally ordered the escort to right form before the about turn was ordered. The escort is confused and hesitant to execute the order

We call that "Mansbridging" nowadays. Peter Mansbridge had it down to a fine science.

Lovely films. Glad to have found a film of Her Majesty the Queen at the Trooping the Colour of the 1st Battalion Scots Guards. Thank you.

Thank you from the Fiji Islands, very formative with regards to their uniform and history.

I had this on VCR I recorded all the Troopings from about 1980 dear knows were they went.
The last time the queen rode in the birthday parade
wow great footage
This was the last time she rode Burmese
Bring back the height requirement for the Guards and re-establish the Guards depot. Another great British institution broken by the weak and feeble.
I agree with the height requirement, but i dont know what the guards depot was ?

The guards depot certainly sorted the wheat fron the chaff. I was going through basic training when this was on.
Nowadays, they've improved their spinwheels and refined their left and right forms better.
I went through the depot in 1991 with Windsor 21 platoon. Very tough but a great achievement. The Welsh guards were up lizzie barracks up the top.

And at that day, the lieutenant colonel was nowhere to be found to this day.
BTW this recording has the soldiers squashed up making them look fat its the adjustment setting its not set right.
Yes, sorry about that. Hope it doesn't spoil it too much.

Why does the Queen Mother get the anthem, but the Queen doesn't? Seems the sovereign, rather than a Queen Consort, should have precedence.
The Queen was on horseback and in uniform, which meant she took a salute rather than simply being transported in a carriage.
