The Queen's Jubilee celebrations concluded with a vibrant pageant on the fourth and final day, featuring around 7,000 performers and military personnel on Sunday (June 5).

The Gold State Coach made an appearance, with a hologram of a 26-year-old Queen seen waving in the back window. The same coach had taken the Queen to and from her coronation in 1953.

A host of celebrities, from athlete Sir Mo Farah to singer-songwriter Tony Hadley of Spandau Ballet were spotted on open-top buses, marking each decade of the monarch's reign.

In the Guardian, sketch writer John Crace described the pageant thus: "This was Britain unwinding after being on its best behaviour for three days and indulging its eccentricity to the max. It looked like a carnival that was far more fun to participate in than to actually watch. Not that it didn’t have its charms. There was diversity aplenty with an Indian wedding, a whole load of African wildlife puppets, farmyard animals and some dancing flowers."
