Prince William, the Princess of Wales and their three children have arrived at Westminster Abbey for the start of the King’s coronation. Kate Middleton was spotted arriving with Prince William, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis ahead of the important ceremony which will see their grandfather crowned.

Meanwhile Prince George arrived moments earlier, as he had a big part to play in the ceremony as one of King Charles' pages. During an appearance at a pub in Soho in London's West End on Thursday, the Princess of Wales said her eldest son is “excited” for the ceremony and is now a “bit more relaxed” for the big day.

Prince George, along with his fellow pages, wore a smart red military jacket as he stood behind King Charles as he entered Westminster Abbey. Moments later, the rest of his family arrived, with Prince Louis spotted waving to the camera while Princess Charlotte followed her parents into Westminster Abbey.

Prince George, who is second-in-line to the throne, had been taking part in rehearsals for the ceremony at Westminster Abbey as he prepared for his role as a Page of Honour. When asked if he was looking forward to it, the Princess replied: “He is actually. Having done a few rehearsals, I think everyone is a bit more relaxed.”

Meanwhile, Princess Charlotte, 7, and Prince Louis, 4, are due to attend the ceremony but won’t have an official role to play. They are due to take part in the carriage procession back to Buckingham Palace, with King Charles and Queen Camilla followed by three other carriages containing working members of the Royal Family.

The return procession has been described as a “glorious display of pageantry” by the Earl Marshal, with 4,000 members of the Armed Forces due to take part. Royal fans will be able to catch a glimpse of the Prince and Princess of Wales and their children along the route.

BBC EastEnders fans despair as they complain they are 'watching two different shows' as they slam it as 'disjointed'

EastEnders fans say they feel like they are watching two different shows as two current storylines seem to have very little crossover. Some viewers have said that the drama, which normally interlaces multiple storylines in an episode feels ‘disjointed’ as different plots seem to be being kept separate.

Taking to the EastEnders subreddit to vent their frustration with the way the show is currently structured. Titled: “The show feels a bit disjointed” the post reads: “I feel like we are watching two different shows. Some weeks we get Suki, Nish and Eve storylines alongside Stacey and Lilly storylines and Ravi's relationships.

“Then for the next two weeks it involves more of Lola, Jay, Keanu and Ravi's less romantic storylines. The only storylines that carry over the whole time is the Branning-Fox family.

“I feel like it would be better to be more cohesive with the show and combine them as (in my opinion) the weeks with Nish and Suki are much stronger and more interesting. Even if they alternated every week it would seem better, it really does feel like two shows!”

This is a sentiment that many in the comments of the post seemed to share with many agreeing that the show felt like plotlines would stop and start according to what a particular episode chose to focus on.

One commenter wrote: “I agree even if I enjoy the show mostly. The problem is block storytelling which makes the stories stop and start rather than multiple of them run concurrently like they should. It’s a problem with most of the soaps (especially Hollyoaks) at the moment because it’s easier to film this way but makes for a poorer show.

“The Fox-Brannings and Ravi are quite good as they seem immersed with the whole Square in comparison whilst other groups seem segregated. The sense of community has been good lately but hopefully the arrival of Knights connects everyone better if they are the last piece of Clenshaw's puzzle.”

This is echoed by other viewers that lament the shows inability to give depth to multiple storylines at the same time. “I agree but with so many characters and subplots it's impossible to give them all in depth coverage if we had, them all going all the time. Hence we get one storyline concentrated on for a week or so,” added another fan.

A third said: “I guess it's tricky with soaps to have proportional screen time/storylines for all characters. Some of it might be entirely acting schedule based or having to work around family emergencies and whatnot. Some of it might be simply because the writers think ‘we already have a whole week of this, maybe we'll switch to this.’”

Do you agree with these fans' assessment of the show? Let us know in the comments.

Martin Lewis shows how millions of people can get extra £1,000 per year by doing one simple thing

Money saving expert Martin Lewis has revealed how people can get extra £1,000 per year tax free by just doing one simple thing.

He has urged married couples to check their marriage tax allowance entitlement and stressed “millions are missing out” on saving money.

Speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live, he said: “If you are a basic 20 per cent taxpayer and are married or in a civil partnership [...] and you are with somebody who is a non-taxpayer - so simply they don’t earn enough in a year to pay income tax -then the non-taxpayer can give 10 per cent of their personal allowance to the taxpayer so that taxpayer then has more money they earn that isn’t taxed.

Martin Lewis has issued new advice

“It’s worth over £250 this year and can be backdated for four prior years, if you did that, it’s a cheque of over a grand coming to you.”

In an online explainer, Mr Lewis outlined specific eligibility criteria for the cash. He said: "You need to be married or in a civil partnership. Just living together doesn't count. One of you needs to be a non-taxpayer.

"This usually means you'll earn less than the £12,570 personal allowance between 6 April 2023 and 5 April 2024. To get the full benefit, the non-taxpayer actually needs to earn £11,310 or less.

"The other partner needs to be a basic 20% rate taxpayer. This means you'd normally need to earn less than £50,270, or if you live in Scotland, £43,662. Higher or additional-rate taxpayers aren't eligible for this allowance. You both must have been born on or after 6 April 1935. If not, there's a different tax perk."
