Three strangers. Ten miles. One life-changing day...

The Queue tells the unforgettable story of three strangers, nineteen-year-old Abbie, 40-year-old Mike and 69-year-old Suzie, who meet in Southwark Park on 17th September 2022 on a day that will change their lives forever.

Over the next twenty-four hours, alongside 250,000 others, friendships are formed, celebrities are spotted and rom-com dreams are ignited. As the unlikely trio wind along the Thames, edging ever closer to Westminster and the Queen, it's clear that they have unknowingly become a part of history - and that when they finally leave the queue their worlds will never be the same again...
