Scotland
In celebration of The Queen's 90th birthday, Penelope Keith travels to the four corners of the Union to venture behind the scenes of Her Majesty's official royal residences. Penelope continues her journey at the Queen's official Scottish residence, the Palace of Holyroodhouse, where she discovers a unique 1000-piece royal silverware service and steps into the ill-fated bed chamber of Mary Queen of Scots.

She uncovers an unexpected treasure from the Queen's 1953 coronation tour and finds out how The Queen's simple act of crossing a road in Enniskillen in 2012 helped unify two fractured communities.
Wales

She starts her journey at Caernarfon Castle, where Prince Charles was invested as Prince of Wales in 1969.
