Surrounded by tents and flags, royal enthusiasts camp on the Mall, hoping to secure a good vantage point on the route of King Charles III's coronation this Saturday May 6. 81-year-old Margaret has been camping for two days already and says "it's going to be a historical moment and an amazing spectacle. It's something you'll never have experienced before". Another of those lining the procession route days in advance is Robert Bolitho, a British army veteran. "I don't think I'll see another coronation" he says, "I've travelled 300 miles... we made the effort."
