Queen hits Spalding silver screen

The South Holland Centre is getting into the Jubilee spirit by showing two Queen related films this weekend.

‘Elizabeth: A Portrait in Parts’ will be showing from Friday June 3 to Sunday June 5.

It’s a unique and inventive feature length documentary about the life of Queen Elizabeth II.

A spokesman for the South Holland Centre said: “Directed by the late, great and much celebrated Roger Michell (Notting Hill, The Duke), the film is a nostalgic, uplifting and very modern chronicle of the extraordinary 70-year reign of Her Majesty the Queen, the longest lived, longest reigning British monarch and longest serving female head of state in history.”

On Saturday June 4 at 2pm there will also be a showing of the 2006 film The Queen, starring Dame Helen Mirran.

“A fascinating portrait of the crisis faced by the royal family following the death of Princess Diana in 1997, this immaculate drama shows the tension between the Queen and Prime Minister Tony Blair as a nation in shock and mourning looks to Her Majesty to reflect its pain,” the spokesman said.
