Summary

Details of the coronation are coming out thick and fast, but there is still royal business to do too. The King and Queen were in Liverpool as part of the build-up to another major event coming in May: the Eurovision Song Contest. Pod Save the King host Ann Gripper is joined by Daily Mirror royal editor Russell Myers to catch up on all the royal latest, including the timetable for the coronation, a special role for Princess Anne and some controversial guests. They also reflect on the photos released to mark Prince Louis and the late Queen's birthdays, and Harry and Meghan's kisscam moment. Plus, as volunteering is put at the heart of the coronation celebrations, Ann turns the spotlight on what Camilla is like as a royal patron in an interview with Peter Laurie, CEO of Battersea Dogs and Cats Home.
