The Queens came to the Tower of London over the weekend as the cast of Six performed a special flashmob alongside droves of fans.

The smash-hit musical about the six wives of Henry VIII, which won a WhatsOnStage Award earlier this year (after being nominated for six) performed at midday outside the iconic London landmark.
