It was, said Sir Kenneth Branagh as he emerged from Westminster Abbey, "moving".
The Northern Ireland-born actor, 62, was alongside his fellow 'Belfast' star Judi Dench at the end of the two hour coronation of King Charles.
Asked to elaborate on why he described the ceremony as such, Sir Ken, after helping Dame Judi down a steep bit of path in the wet weather, said in a friendly way: "It was just moving. That is all I can say about it just now."
