Just hours earlier, it was announced that the drama Bohemian Rhapsody starring Rami Malek had won two Golden Globe awards.

The Queen’s guards frequently perform musical numbers which carry significance to current world events.

Last August, they played Aretha Franklin’s R.E.S.P.E.C.T on the day of the Queen of Soul’s funeral.

They have also performed ABBA’s Dancing Queen – a personal favourite song of The Queen.
