For the second day of the Jubilee, a fish and chip store was transformed into the country’s “largest Union Jack.”

Up and down the country, Britons dressed in red, white, and blue raised a glass to the Queen yesterday to commemorate Her Majesty’s remarkable 70th year on the throne, and are now preparing for day two of the Platinum Jubilee.

The day’s festivities begin with a Thanksgiving ceremony at St Paul’s Cathedral in central London. Great Paul, the country’s largest church bell, will clang at 10.50 a.m. to signal a service of thanksgiving for the Queen’s long reign.

 

After being silent since the 1970s due to a faulty mechanism, the bell was only restored in 2021. Since then, it has only been rung eight times, none of which have been during a royal service.

Her Majesty had hoped to attend the service, but had to withdraw after experiencing ‘discomfort’ on the first day of the festivities.

 

And now, on the second day of the celebrations, delighted Britons are continuing the celebrations in honor of Her Majesty.

 

For the Jubilee, Ivan’s Fish & Chip Shop in Cradley Heath, West Midlands, has been turned into a massive 65-square-meter Union Jack.

Ivan’s son Warren Rudge, his wife Jenny, and their son James currently run the family-owned chippy, which has been in operation for 65 years.

Warren, 54, and James, 32, spent two days changing the shop front, concluding at 10.30 p.m. on Wednesday night, just in time for the Bank Holiday weekend.
