The warm, friendly smile of the Queen seen in close-up on a television screen as she concludes her traditional Christmas day broadcast to her people, which was televised this year for the first time and carried by both the BBC and ITV. The Queen ended her message: 'I hope that 1958 may bring you God's blessing and all the things you long for. And so I wish you all, young and old, wherever you may be, all the fun and enjoyment and the peace of a very happy Christmas'. She was speaking from the Long Library at Sandringham, where the Royal family is gathered for Christmas. It was the 25th anniversary of the first radio message to the Commonwealth by her grandfather, King George V.
