William Makes Touching Speech Ahead Of Concert

Taking to the stage in front of 20,000 people at Windsor Castle, Prince William praised the King's dedication to the crown, as well as his environmental and charity work.

William said the King had "warned us of the risks to our planet's health long before it was an everyday issue". He also highlighted the Prince's Trust, established by his father, which he said "has supported over a million young people, many from disadvantaged backgrounds, to realise their ambitions."

An eclectic mix of entertainers, from Take That to Andrea Bocelli, performed at the special concert. Early in the evening, Olly Murs gave an enthusiastic rendition of his pop hit "Dance With Me Tonight" - though it wasn't until later in the evening, when Lionel Richie launched into his 1983 hit "All Night Long (All Night)", that Charles decided to bring out his own seldom-seen dance moves.

Hugh Bonneville served as the evening's host, blending well-spoken gravitas with flashes of gentle comedy. For: many, the most memorable skit was when Miss Piggy from The Muppets engaged the Downton Abbey thespian in a bit of comic back and forth, before the pair were joined by Kermit the Frog.

United stuck in 'purgatory' and facing only one way out

When one prominent football figure caught a glimpse of the Manchester United dressing room recently, they immediately recognised a scene they had seen from rival clubs. That was a squad that \"doesn't know what next\" and feels like it's \"going nowhere\". It isn't intentional, of course, but is a feeling that starts to grip a group when there's no sense of clarity.
