Summary

The Queen marked the 73rd anniversary of the founding of the NHS by awarding the organisation the George Cross. Prince William joined a thanksgiving service and hosted a tea party - but Kate missed the celebrations after being sent to Covid jail. Charles and Camilla also shared their thank yous to the NHS ahead of their visit to Wales. Pod Save The Queen host Ann Gripper is joined by Daily Mirror royal editor Russell Myers to reflect on the Queen’s very special recognition of the health service. They also talk about Kate’s Wimbledon visit, catch up on all the latest royal news - and manage not to jinx the England football team. Learn more about your ad choices.

0:00.0	POD Save the Queen!
0:03.0	Hello and welcome back to POD Save the Queen and we sit here in anticipation of England's
0:10.6	semi-final match against Denmark tonight. It is Wednesday we are recording. I am
0:15.2	your host Ann Gripper. I am joined by my friend Jamie Murr Royal Editor Russell
0:19.0	Myers. The episode will be going out on Thursday when we will know our fate. So hopefully we will still be joyful
0:26.4	and jolly and looking forward to another big match. But who knows?
0:30.3	We will. We will. You have to believe. You have to believe. You have to believe. I'm wearing my England shirt. So it's, you know, it's going to happen. It's all going to be fine. And I mean, one person we know won't be at the match tonight is the Duchess of Cambridge because she is in

0:47.8	Prince William I would definitely be going and if I was Prince George although

1:24.8	Well and also if if we'll use the if word if we do win tonight and are playing on Sunday night that's
1:31.2	another eight o'clock and like can you imagine dad I mean you would forget on that would be used against him for years and years to come on arguments.
1:44.8	Anyway, that's the time-space continuum and listeners you will know already
