Coronation chaos in Glasgow as screens cut off at Cathedral before King is crowned

The screens at Glasgow Cathedral cut off before King Charles was crowned, leaving revellers gutted today. The iconic church was hosting a live stream of the event from Westminster Abbey when the TVs went blank at the pivotal moment.

Dozens of royal fans who had travelled from far and wide to soak up the atmosphere were heard sighing as the stream cut in and out. The revellers eventually resorted to watching the event on their mobile phones as a bizarre echo of the commentary was heard around the cathedral.

At one point the stream burst back to life as "God Save The King" blared over the speakers, before cutting out again. Several of the crowd then packed up and left as members of staff on the door apologised.
