EastEnders celebrates Jubilee with special royal theme tune in credits

The Jubilee themed tune was composed by original theme tune composer Simon May.

It will play as the residents of Walford celebrate the royal visit and make a toast to Her Majesty The Queen’s seventy year reign.

Executive producer Chris Clenshaw said: “To have Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall not only visit us all in Walford, but to also appear in an episode, we felt it was only right that we marked this extremely momentous episode with a fitting tribute and what better way than to wish Their Royal Highnesses on their way from Albert Square than with a special Jubilee version of our iconic theme tune, remastered by the very talented Simon May.”
