The Royal Channel

The English Royal Family is launching a YouTube Channel this year in an attempt to 'widen the Royal's appeal.' As part of the launch, Queen Elizabeth II delivered her annual address online on The Royal Channel.

The Royal Channel was developed in part to mark the first televised Christmas Speech by Queen Elizabeth II that took place 50 years ago. The channel is intending on showing some of the history of the Queen and also connecting directly to the people outside of the TV.
