Attention has now turned to Buckingham Palace and more specifically the balcony where the King and queen will soon appear.
They’ll wave to the huge crowds gathered to catch a glimpse of the monarch and watch a flypast, which as we’ve reported, has been scaled down due to the wet weather.
In what’s sure to be one of the key images of the day, the newly-crowned King and Queen emerge on the balcony and wave to the vast crowds who’ve gathered along The Mall to witness the spectacle.
Huge crowds gather to catch glimpse of King
And here comes the crowd! The grounds around Buckingham Palace are awash with union jack brollies and flags waving high.
Their spirit appears undimmed by the bad weather, with many running to catch a spot close to the front as we wait for the King and queen to appear on the Buckingham Palace balcony.
A flypast has been scaled down because of the wet weather.
