colour as sovereign. many horses, troops and musicians coming together for what is display of military precision, horsemanship and fanfare to mark what is the king s official birthday. and the parade moves from buckingham palace and down to the mall, for horse guards s parade. these are the images that you are saying and the display culminates in a fly past by the raf. so, aircraft from the royal navy, the british army and of course the royal air force will be celebrating the king s birth with a fly past scheduled for 1pm. in two and a half hours time. 70 aircraft are expected to fly through the sky past buckingham palace, which is always the peak of the event and draws huge crowds and it follows the royal family appearing on the balcony to greet the crowd. and that is when, as we were hearing from a correspondent outside buckingham palace in earlier, that s when the crowds push down toward buckingham palace and around the gates to see the royal family appear on the balcony.
King Charles and Prime Minister Rishi Sunak led Britain in honouring the country s war dead today as a parade of thousands of veterans lined Whitehall for poignant moment of remembrance.
