Queen greets members of the armed forces at parade in Edinburgh

The Queen met with members of the armed forces during an act of loyalty parade in Edinburgh as part of Holyrood week. The ceremony took place in the gardens of the Palace of Holyroodhouse on Tuesday to celebrate her visit to Scotland and mark her Platinum Jubilee. The parade centred on the presentation of the key for Edinburgh Castle as part of the royal tradition and a meeting with members of the services. The 96-year-old arrived in the gardens smiling and wearing a heather-coloured silk wool dress and coat with a matching hat, all by Angela Kelly.
