Thames set for Jubilee spectacular

The Queen's Diamond Jubilee weekend will reach its peak with a colourful River Thames pageant.

Hundreds of thousands of people will line the banks of the river to watch the Queen cruise past on a royal barge escorted by a 1,000-strong flotilla.

Millions more Britons are expected to take part in Jubilee parties, outdoor concerts and fairs across the country.
