The King and Queen have invited the on screen stars and celebrities to a Buckingham Palace garden party.

       The sun is shining at the event which is to celebrate the creative industries - and will also pay homage to those that work tirelessly behind the scenes.

       Around 4,000 guests from the worlds of film, TV, radio and fashion are in attendance at the event - invitees include Tess Daly, Kate Moss, Lenny Henry and an array of other stars and well known faces.

       Also at the shindig in the Palace gardens are those who have contributed to culture, art and heritage. Artist Tracey Emin and broadcaster Clara Amfo are also enjoying the festivities.

       When The King was introduced to TV’s star married couple Vernon Kay and Tess Daly, Tess said:

       “It was an honour to meet him,” adding “He said he liked my dress."

       Tracey Emin met the King and said: “We spoke about health and painting.

       “He asked me if I was recovering - which I am and it was lovely to see the Queen too. I complimented them on their pinks - she said it was unintentional!"

       Arlene Philips was introduced to the Queen. She said: “She remembered me from when we last met.

       "It was at a concert after I’d just been let go from Strictly and she said how much she missed me which was very kind.

       “She asked me what I’ve been doing lately and I explained I was doing the choreography for Guys and Dolls. She said she had taken the grandchildren to see it and they loved it."

       The sector’s value to the economy is being acknowledged as well as aiming to showcase British culture on the global stage.
