King Charles III's coronation oil was 'secretly' concocted on a housing estate in Hull over eight months, it has been claimed.
Retired church minister and pharmacist Mark Hutton said he used a clandestine recipe that dates back to Charles I and is a 'modern' incarnation of that created by Moses using myrrh, cinnamon and olive oil, as per the Bible.
The 66-year-old - who worked at a Lloyds chemist - claims he has been beavering away after office hours in readiness for the monarch's big day on May 6.
