A look back at the 'world's most thrilling broadcast': The first royal Christmas speech by King George V and the ones that came after it King Charles will address the country on Christmas Day in a tradition that began 92 years ago.
His first Christmas broadcast, in 2022, was filmed in St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle in tribute to the late Queen Elizabeth who was laid to rest there.
Queen Elizabeth filming her Christmas address in Sandringham with the original microphones used by her grandfather by her side.
An estimated 20 million people tuned in to hear the King's Christmas message during which he spoke of 'the marvels of modern science' that allowed him to be heard by so many.
Though the concept remains the same, the current monarch's speeches are very different to the very first read by George V in 1932.
