| Description | Queen Elizabeth II - first televised Christmas broadcast |
| Details |
Queen Elizabeth II sitting at her desk in the Long Library at Sandringham to make the traditional Christmas Day speech. As television cameras were being used for the first time (Christmas 1957), the Queen spoke from the Long Library instead of the usual study, which was too small for the necessary equipment involved.
