Summary

We’ve had the midnight rehearsal as troops paraded through London’s streets, now it’s time for the real thing as we celebrate the coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla this weekend. Pod Save the King host Ann Gripper is joined by Daily Mirror royal editor Russell Myers, fresh from the King’s first garden party, to discuss all the final details and reflect on the mood ahead of the big day. They also discuss William and Kate’s pub visit, Princess Anne’s big interview and round up the royal updates. We also hear how Mirror lifestyle writer Saffron Otter got on making the coronation trifle. And in our second spotlight on volunteering, Samaritans chair Keith Leslie talks about the King’s long patronage of the charity for people in crisis.
