‘This magic of our childhoods- the characters, the stories, the imagination of it all- is an enduring and essential part of our culture,'it sweetly went on, quoting Queen Elizabeth from an event celebrating children’s literature back in 2006.

In honour of the musical project, the Buckingham Palace Guards played a medley of Bon Jovi hits.
As the video was shared on the Royal Family Twitter, the caption read, ‘TrumpetGuard Change at Buckingham Palace!
