Platinum Jubilee: Eight new cities created in Queen's honour
Eight new cities are being created for The Queen 's Platinum Jubilee, with at least one in every UK Nation - and on the Falkland Islands and Isle of Man .
Milton Keynes in England, Dunfermline in Scotland, Bangor in Northern Ireland and Wrexham in Wales all get the title.
It is a first for places in an Overseas Territory - Stanley , in the Falklands - and a crown dependency - Douglas, in The Isle of Man - to win city Status .
Colchester and Doncaster complete The List getting The Royal honour.
Applicants had to show their cultural heritage and royal links.
The Platinum Jubilee civic honours competition also required places to show how their local identity and communities meant they deserved to be granted city Status .
The Last competition to win civic honours ran a decade ago to mark The Queen 's Diamond Jubilee . For the First Time this year, Crown Dependencies and Overseas Territories were allowed to apply.
The Announcement of the latest civic honours takes The Number of official cities in mainland UK to 76, with 55 in England, eight in Scotland, seven in Wales and six in Northern Ireland .
The Winners and details from their bids for city Status include:

Each New City will receive the award formally through a Letters Patent, which will be presented later in the year.
Meanwhile, The City of Southampton has won The Competition for Lord Mayoralty Status - which means The Mayor can be called Lord Mayor - joining the ranks of previous Jubilee competition winners including Chester, Exeter and Armagh.
In October, it was announced that Southend in Essex would become a city after the death of Sir David Amess , one of The Town 's MPs, who often championed its campaign for the Status .
