The public and press were excluded from the sentencing of the Duke of Norfolk on grounds of national security as details of the coronation of King Charles III were to be discussed as part of his argument against losing his driving licence.
The earl marshal, 65, who organised the Queen’s funeral and has a key role in the orchestration of the king’s coronation, was banned from driving for six months after pleading guilty at Lavender Hill magistrates court on Monday to using his mobile phone while driving.
