James Gunn has revealed the small part Pete Davidson voiced in the Marvel film.

It was a royal night to remember: A magnificent coronation concert staged in the grounds of Windsor Castle, capping a day of street parties and community lunch events across the UK on Sunday in celebration of King Charles III.

More than 20 million people in the United Kingdom tuned in to watch King Charles III's coronation on Saturday, but the ceremony attracted far fewer British viewers than his mother's funeral last year.

During the King’s Coronation, a choir sang a song for the new Queen Camilla and everyone is saying the same thing about what it sounds like. On Saturday 6 May, King Charles III was officially crowned alongside The Queen, Camilla at a ceremony at Westminster Abbey in London. The ceremony, steeped in tradition and ritual, featured many musical interludes from various choirs and it was during one song that people thought they heard the word “vagina” being sung. In a viral TikTok clip by @the_two_games, which has been viewed over 29 million times, Camilla could be seen inside the abbey slowly making her way down an aisle between a choir whose members stood on either side. Text overlaying the clip read, “Please tell me you hear ‘I LIKE VAGINA CAMILLA’” and the person filming the TV could be heard laughing in the background.

Someone else commented: “I was thinking that too when I watched it.” Another said: “I CAN HEAR IT TOO.” “I thought I was the only one that thought this when I watched it live,” one comment read. On Twitter, others said the NSFW words were firmly stuck in their head. Someone tweeted: “After 14 vodkas ‘I like vagina Camilla is on a loop in my head and I can’t stop laughing.” Obviously, the choir was not singing about vagina, but was instead singing the words “Vivat Regina Camila!”. This means, “Long Live Queen Camilla” in Latin. Mystery solved. Have your say in our news democracy.

King Charles III coronation this weekend was an entertaining occasion that sparked memes, speculation about the might of Penny Mordaunt's triceps, and criticism for the enormous cost and arrests of republican protesters. But the show was partially overshadowed by a mysterious cloaked figure who appeared during the event, which social media users compared to the grim reaper. In videos of the proceedings posted on Twitter and TikTok, a hooded figure wearing black and holding a stick is seen quickly walking past the open door of Westminster Abbey outside. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Social media users who spotted the figure immediately came up with jokes, with some saying the figure was the late Queen Elizabeth II, or the late Princess Diana, or the grim reaper and others just finding it totally baffling. But there is a simple explanation. When contacted by Newsweek, Westminster Abbey identified the figure as a verger, a member of the abbey community who assists with religious services but who is not a member of the clergy. So there is nothing scary to see here. Have your say in our news democracy. Click the upvote icon at the top of the page to help raise this article through the indy100 rankings.

A new king has been crowned in the UK but all the internet cares about is the memes. It was a grand occasion at Westminster Abbey when Charles III was officially crowned King and Camilla was crowned as the next Queen. Amongst all the pomp and circumstance and usual royal traditions there was a lot of fun and mischief to be had for those folks online. From Katy Perry getting lost, to Ant and Dec pulling faces and Nick Cave being the only goth invited there was plenty of laughs to be had and that was all before the ceremony had even started. Sign up to our new free Indy100 weekly newsletter Once the main event got underway and Charles and Camilla were in place the memes were coming thick and fast. One of the biggest memes of the day was Charles reading a speech from a piece of paper which was the perfect format for some hilarious jokes. Some bangers were being played in the Abbey. Ant and Dec appeared to be having a very good time. Nick Cave looked right at home. It's actually a shock that Salt Bae wasn't there. Of course, Liz Truss was there. Multi-instrumentalist Karl Jenkins had our favourite look. There's always a Star Wars reference. Penny Mordaunt carrying a huge sword stole the show and caused some people to have conflicting feelings. Surely not? What were those shields all about? Here are some very niche references. 10 points if you can guess them. One final thought for this lad. Have your say in our news democracy.

Eagle-eyed social media spectators of King Charles III's coronation couldn't take their eyes off one guest, leaving them wondering who it was. The grey-haired man was sporting a mullet and moustache while sitting alongside Andrew Lloyd Webber. His look was completed with a pair of tinted sunglasses. Almost immediately, viewers turned to Twitter, asking who the mysterious "cool" man was, with one joking: "Meghan, you’re not fooling us…" Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Sadly it wasn't her as earlier this month, the palace said in a statement: "Buckingham Palace is pleased to confirm that The Duke of Sussex will attend the Coronation Service at Westminster Abbey on 6th May. The Duchess of Sussex will remain in California with Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet." The man is, of course, Sir Karl Jenkins, composer and instrumentalist. The 79-year-old composed a piece for Charles' coronation titled 'Tros y Garreg', translating to 'Crossing the Stone'. "I am very honoured. It obviously sums up Welsh culture - the harp - and he [the King] has always supported Welsh music," he told the BBC ahead of the event. "I don't know whether he chose it, but he was happy to have it there. I know he likes it otherwise he wouldn't have asked me." He spoke about the late Queen's 1953 coronation, saying: "We had one of the first TV screens in the street, in the village I guess...12in (30cm) screen, two rows of friends and neighbours watching." He added: "I am very honoured. It obviously sums up Welsh culture - the harp - and he [the King] has always supported Welsh music," said Sir Karl. Have your say in our news democracy.

Penny Mordaunt, former Tory leadership contender and Leader of the House of Commons and Lord President of the Council has gone viral after she played an important part in the coronation of King Charles III. The MP was presented the Jewelled Sword of Offering to the King after it was blessed by the Archbishop of Canterbury. It was the first time the sword had been carried and presented to the monarch by a woman. It had been carried into Westminster Abbey by petty officer Amy Taylor, who became the first woman to undertake the duty of carrying the sword into the Abbey after being selected to represent service men and women as a tribute to the King’s military career. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The sword was placed in the King’s right hand, then clipped onto his girdle and eventually unclipped. The King then stepped forward and offered the sword to the Dean, who placed it on the altar. The sword was then “redeemed” by Ms Mordaunt, who placed the redemption money on an alms dish, held by the Dean, before drawing the sword and carrying it in its naked form, without its scabbard. Although Mordaunt's role is no doubt important people couldn't help but be amused at the sight of her carrying a huge sword. Cue the memes. There was even a Warhammer joke.

To mark King Charles III's coronation, Costa Coffee have been prepping their baristas to provide "proper etiquette". The popular drinks chain enlisted the help of a royal butler to put the team through their paces as part of a new 'Barista Butler School'. Uniforms were complete with traditional white butler gloves before learning about silver service, formal afternoon tea service, and napkin folding should Charles ever stop by for his rumoured favourite toasted lunch choice. It comes after Costa launched its new Coronation Chicken Toastie. It features roast chicken with a blend of coronation spiced bechamel sauce, mango chutney, apricots and sultanas in coronation spiced cheese-topped bread, the new Coronation Chicken Toastie. Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Etiquette expert William Hanson has since lent a hand in etiquette after research by Costa revealed that less than half of us (45 percent) hold our fork in the left hand when eating, and over three quarters (77 percent) do not follow the ‘6:30 clock face’ rule when finished. Knife and fork "While cold sandwiches are designed as finger food, it’s perfectly acceptable to use cutlery for toasted morsels (despite etiquette from ancient Rome telling us to never to cut bread!). Spear and cut away to your heart’s content - don’t worry about upsetting our Roman ancestors. They’d relax a bit if they tasted a toastie." Getting handsy "If a knife and fork isn’t your vibe and you want to get tactile with your toastie, using your hands is fine too - especially in more relaxed settings. Clean hands, of course, are infinitely preferable to ones you haven’t sanitised or washed before tucking in." Triangles are better than rectangles "Should you be in charge of cutting your toastie in two, please note that in etiquette land, cutting diagonally to make triangles (rather than rectangles) is hugely preferred - not to mention it looks much more aesthetically pleasing." Napkin on lap "Regardless of how you choose to eat your toastie, please do ensure your lap is covered with a napkin - linen, ideally, but paper napkins are better than nothing, as it is best to have something there to catch any spillages. Regardless of your choice of dining establishment, it’s always correct to have protection in the form of napery. Tucking napkins into collars is fine when you’re 18 months old, but a bit tragic when you’re older." Eat the crusts "Since World War II, it’s been the rule to finish all the food on your plate, rather than leaving a little to show you’re full to bursting. This rule still stands - so don’t think you can get away with leaving the crusts. Eat up!" Finger bowl if using finger food "Hear me out, if you’re eating with your hands, it may be best to have a small cut-glass finger bowl close by so you can gently dab your fingers in cold water to wash away any mess on your fingertips. Add a touch of class to the proceedings, why don’t you?" Finished? "If using cutlery to devour your toastie, place the cutlery in the ‘6:30 position’ if you imagine your plate as a clock face. This is the British signal that you have finished eating - and something The King will always do when dining." Naomi Matthew, Food Innovation Director at Costa Coffee commented: "We know how much the nation loves a toasted sandwich and we’re excited to be taking it to the next level with our Coronation Chicken Toastie. "Our Baristas are the best of the best and are already experts in creating the perfect cup of handcrafted coffee, but we knew we had to take our training to another level in honour of King Charles’ coronation. "We’re thrilled to have been able to have a Royal Butler train our Baristas so we can make our customers feel like Kings and Queens during the exciting coronation period." The Coronation Chicken Toastie will be available until 31 May. Have your say in our news democracy.
