Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II formally opened the BBC’s new broadcasting house in London today. She opened the new headquarters with a declaration on BBC Radio 4.

While on a tour of the newsroom, the Queen happened to pop up behind a pair of presenters delivering a live newscast. They turned around in their chairs and gave her a bow, as the newsroom applauded.
