Queen Elizabeth II has lived through some of the most iconic events of our time.

From the deadliest conflict in human history, World War II, to the tearing down of the Berlin Wall, and the very first landing on the moon.

But her duty and privilege didn't come without sacrifice.

In this episode, we trace the early life of Her Majesty. From her days as a young princess, when there was no expectation of kingship, to the shocking death of her beloved father and subsequent coronation at just 27 years old.
