Coronation concert viewers shocked by royal seats and joke they need binoculars

Coronation concert viewers noticed a strange issue with the seating arrangements - joking that the Royals have the worst seats in the whole house.

Many fans have been left wondering why the Royal family is sat right at the back of proceedings, claiming that they might be struggling to see what's going on thanks to their less-than-ideal positioning.

Twitter users have been saying that the Royal family must need binoculars to see what's going on.

People have been using the trending hashtag #CoronationConcert to keep up to date with the goings on at the historic event, but many have been left less than impressed on behalf of the Royal family.

One person was fuming on behalf of the Royal Family, writing: "The Royals should have been supplied with binoculars, it’s so bad that they’ve been seated that far away at a concert put on, especially for them.

"It's no wonder none of them are looking thrilled, they can't even see what's happening."

Another said: "The Royal box is SO far away, poor Charlotte and George should have brought their binoculars."

Someone else was left wondering why King Charles III didn't have a front-row seat as the concert is in honour of him.

They commented: "Please can someone give the Royal Family some binoculars or a telescope for the Coronation concert so they can see the stage…Thought King Charles would have got a front-row seat…"

A Twitter user jibed: "Bl**dy hell, the royal box have the worse seats in the house! Why are they so far away!! Hope they got binoculars in those goodie bags!"

The choristers of St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, sang the opening to Take That’s third song, Never Forget, which gave the show an uplifting finale.

Prince George and Princess Charlotte clapped along with the song.

The King also clapped along – and there was a dancing Queen, as Camilla moved to the music.

The royal couple held up their Union flags as the concert came to a close.
