Sand palace on Bournemouth beach for Queen's birthday

Buckingham Palace has been recreated on Bournemouth beach in honour of the Queen's 90th birthday.

Sand-sculptors Claire Jamieson and Jamie Wardley said it took hours of hard work, as well as more than three tonnes of sand and 1,000 litres of water.

The pair have been commissioned by a Bournemouth insurance firm to build replicas of both Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle.
