Brits are raising a toast to the news that pubs will be allowed to stay open into the early hours during the upcoming Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations.

Licensing hours for pubs, bars and clubs will be extended from 11pm to 1am during the June Bank Holiday to mark the 70th anniversary of Her Majesty’s accession to the throne.
