The Shadows played many times at the annual Royal Variety Performance, it must have been at one of them.

Yes: 1960, 1962, 1964, 1981 and 2008.

Only in 1964 whilst John Rostill was alive and a member.

With the arrival of rock and roll during the first decade of her reign, Johnnie Ray, at the Royal Variety Performance in November 1955, was said to be a personal favourite of the Queen.
