As dawn broke in London on the day of the coronation of King Charles III, sunshine was in short supply but spirits were high as thousands of well-wishers made their way to the procession route in the hope of catching a glimpse of the gold coach carrying the king and queen consort.
While weary republicans may feel like there have been as many royal events as London buses in recent years, the tens of thousands who braved forecasts of pitiful weather were adamant that being present to celebrate Britain’s first coronation in 70 years was a truly unmatched occasion.
