Costumes worn by the Queen as a teenager have gone on display at Windsor Castle

The Queen's pantomime costumes have gone on display as part of an exhibition at Windsor Castle.

The outfits were made for a teenage Princess Elizabeth and her sister Princess Margaret when they took part in war-time pantomimes.

It comes as a 20ft-high Christmas tree was installed in the castle's St George's Hall.

The Princesses' Pantomimes will be on display until 3 January 2022.
