Queen Consort Camilla’s son has revealed the foods that she would have banned from the Coronation Day menu. Food critic Tom Parker Bowles discussed what sorts of dishes would be fit for a King and Queen on the big day when he appeared on The News Agents podcast. The 48 year old writer also gave his verdict on Coronation Chicken – the dish invented to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II taking the throne in June 1953 – describing it as "really horrible" now, despite it being something "quite nice and probably quite exotic for the 50s".

Prince Edward has tried King Charles’ new “Coronation Quiche” as the recipe for the dish was officially revealed. The 59 year old royal - who was officially made Duke of Edinburgh on his birthday last month - joined The Great British Bake Off judge Dame Prue Leith in trying the official coronation pastry at a special Big Lunch at Westminster Abbey on Tuesday, attended by faith leaders from across the country.
