In a one-hour special, British TV favourite Phillip Schofield spends a year celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Duke of Edinburgh Awards. Entertaining, informative and hugely inspirational, this is a unique celebration of the world's leading achievement award for young people as it enters a symbolic year. Phillip spends time with key members of the Royal Household, including the Duke of Edinburgh himself, along with the Earl and Countess of Wessex who are both Duke of Edinburgh ambassadors, with Prince Edward playing nearly as big a role in the charity as his father these days. Phillip will trace the awards' rich history, through rarely seen archive, before investigating the incredible impact it has had on young lives the world over. But Phillip won't stop there. To mark its 60th year, he'll also be doing a challenge of his own, as part of the one-time-only 'Diamond Award'.
A fairytale honeymoon in Africa marked the beginning of the longest marriage on the British throne. Celebrating 50 years together for any couple is an achievement but for The Queen and Prince Philip, given all the complications that their positions entail it is nothing short of remarkable.
