Airdate: Queen of the World

“Royal network” Seven will screen newly-minted British documentary Queen of the World on Tuesday and Wednesday next week.

The ITV special, which is produced by the team behind Our Queen & Our Queen at 90, comes with extraordinary access to the Royal family.

It airs this week and next in the UK, with Seven scheduling it on consecutive nights for Australia.

This new two-part series offers a unique insight into Her Majesty The Queen’s role as a figure on the global stage and the baton she is passing to the younger members of the Royal Family as they continue to build the Commonwealth connection.

Filmed over more than a year with privileged access to The Queen, her family, her staff and her residences, this landmark series tells the story of how the Commonwealth has been a central focus and passion throughout Her Majesty’s life.

Queen of the World features behind-the-scenes moments with the Sovereign and other members of the Royal Family, including the Prince of Wales, the Duke of Cambridge, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, the Princess Royal, and the Countess of Wessex.

As the family and world leaders discuss the importance of the Commonwealth to the Queen, the series will document the way in which she passes her knowledge and experience to the younger generations.

Drawing on cine footage from The Queen and Duke of Edinburgh’s private film archives and treasures of the Royal Collection, the series offers a unique perspective on the Queen’s role as Head of the Commonwealth.

7:30pm Tuesday October 2 and Wednesday October 3 on Seven.
