Queen marks Coronation anniversary at Westminster Abbey

The Queen has joined 2,000 guests for a service at Westminster Abbey to mark 60 years since her Coronation.

Some who took part in the 1953 service were among the congregation.

Archbishop of Canterbury, the Most Rev Justin Welby, said the event honoured "60 years of commitment".

The Queen was accompanied by more than 20 members of her family, including the Duke of Edinburgh, who pulled out of an engagement on Monday night because he was feeling unwell.
