See Hear pays a tribute to Queen Elizabeth II, the longest-serving British monarch, by highlighting members of the deaf community who met her through their work or at the presentation of MBEs or OBEs. Plus more about the Queen’s devotion to service and how she touched many people’s lives.

In the studio, Yvonne and Julian meet Daniel Clements, operation manager for the Royal Association for the Deaf, to discuss how RAD was the only deaf organisation with the Queen’s patronage.

Nathan Rollinson learns more about the life of Princess Alice of Battenberg, the mother of Prince Philip.
