A DIGSWELL man has sung the praises of the Queen after giving her a tour of a pioneering cancer centre in London.

Tony Beecroft showed the monarch and her husband Prince Philip around at the official opening of the London Clinic’s new �80m cancer centre on Wednesday.

The 50-year-old, who is project manager at the Harley Street facility, said: “She was very nice and talked a lot to the patients and staff.”
