A county MP is looking forward to the Coronation of King Charles III.
Nigel Huddleston, MP for Mid Worcestershire, was up until gone midnight last night as he joined royal fanatics to watch rehearsals of the historic occasion.
"I stayed up quite late tonight to watch some of the practice sessions ahead of the Coronation on Saturday," said Mr Huddleston.
"It was worth it!
"Boy, we are in for an amazing show!"
The MP watched on as soldiers paraded past Buckingham Palace towards Westminster Abbey just after 12.20am on Wednesday, May 3.
Crowds ran through St James’ Park to find the best spots along the Mall with many trying to spot their relatives in their military outfits.
The rehearsal took place hours after a man was arrested outside Buckingham Palace after throwing suspected shotgun cartridges into the palace grounds.
