  • Very well covered although I remember ‘the event’ from a Mansfield point of view back in ’53 of course.
    There’s one thing for sure regarding the next Coronation, there will be far more TV’s switched on this coming May. Not many TV’s in 1953, all black and white anyway. Wonder if there will be parties in ‘Coronation Street’ yet again?
