The Archbishop of Canterbury crowned Queen Elizabeth II at Westminster Abbey, and millions of people watched the ceremony on TV for the first time. This ceremony can be traced back centuries, showing all the grand and gorgeous scenes in the most important royal celebration. The Duke of Edinburgh stood next to the Queen. He was the first member of the royal family to express his loyalty to the queen. All the royal vessels, such as the royal orb, scepter, holy oil and the crown of St. Edward, are displayed in front of the audience. The new queen fully rehearsed in advance and appeared dignified and generous at the ceremony.

After the grand ceremony, a celebration music composed by the Queen's musician Sir Arthur Bliss was played. She rode in a gilded carriage and passed Buckingham Palace amid cheers from people. Most people waited all night to see the queen.

At the climax of the ceremony, the Archbishop of Canterbury held the crown of St. Edward high in the air, then put it down and put it on the undisputed queen's head.

Outside the church, 2 million people braved the cold and humid weather to wait. The night before, at least 30 thousand spectators set up tents on the boulevard in front of Buckingham Palace. Tickets for viewing platform seats are resold on the black market for 40 to 50 pounds, while the rental fee for a balcony overlooking the road is as high as 3,500 pounds.

At the same time, about half of the people in Britain watch the important news of the day in front of 2.5 million TV sets nationwide. Since then, the sales of TV sets have soared. The era of mass television has arrived.
