Here was more evidence that things hadn’t panned out quite as expected for the Coronation Concert: with the greatest of respect to Olly Murs – who seems like a thoroughly decent bloke and has managed to spin out his career far longer than your average X Factor runner-up – if his is the name you’re reaching for to underline the world-shaking star power assembled for a concert to celebrate King Charles III’s ascension to the throne, then said concert is in a spot of bother.

And so it proved. “Over 100 countries are watching around the world!” cried host Hugh Bonneville at the concert’s outset, begging the question of how many of them would turn over when they realised there were no unannounced special guests, that the biggest name the show had managed to attract really was the three remaining members of Take That, and that the main surprise was an appearance during their performance by Calum Scott, Britain’s Got Talent runner-up and author of a weepy cover of Robyn’s Dancing On My Own that was briefly inescapable six years ago.

Enjoy.
