Meanwhile, the scale of the event could be even larger than the Queen’s funeral in September, partly because overseas leaders will have more time to plan their travel.

A Coronation Committee, composed of privy counsellors, will be appointed to make the arrangements for the King’s Coronation.The palace has revealed new details on plans for events that will take place over the coronation weekend from Saturday May 6 to Monday May 8. According to a briefing document for Parliament on the Coronation: “On the death of the reigning monarch, the person entitled to succeed to the throne does so as soon as his or her predecessor dies, as summed up in the phrase: “The King is dead; long live the King!”. This is because of the “common law that the King never dies”.

Meanwhile, people are invited to gather for a “coronation big lunch” on Sunday, overseen and organised by the Big Lunch team at the Eden Project. That could mean pubs in England and Wales being allowed to stay open until 1am on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. Monday, a bank holiday, has been set aside for volunteering and is being billed as “the big help out”. Later in the week, Amy lies to Steve and Tracy, making out the march went well and she’s off to hand in her essay. Amy assures Asha that she’s learnt her lesson, she’ll look for other ways to make herself heard and is off home to do some coursework. But after coming across Dylan, and urging him to stand up to Mason and not be a victim, a steely Amy ditches her plans for an early night.The Queen Consort has been patron of the Big Lunch since 2013. The palace said thousands of events are expected to take place in streets, gardens and parks in every corner of the UK. The Queen Consort will become the first consort to be crowned since 1937, as Prince Philip, as a man, was not entitled. The performances will be supported by staging and effects located on the castle’s east lawn and will also include a selection of spoken word sequences delivered by stars of stage and screen.

Teasing the storyline, Amy star Elle, 21, said on Monday's Lorraine: "Amy sees herself almost as this saviour type person, she wants to stop other girls and women going through what she went though. So I think that's why she obviously sets out on this path to basically find the people who are doing this and put a stop to it herself."
