A date has been set… The coronation of King Charles will be held on Saturday, 6 May, at Westminster Abbey. His wife Camilla will also be crowned as Queen Consort. He will be 74yo making him the oldest new monarch to be crowned.

Speaking of stepping up later in life, Malaysia’s former PM Mahathir Mohamad will make another run for parliament at 97yo. He has already been the nation’s leader twice – the last time was in 2018 when he was 92yo.

And Outlander fans might be interested to know that one of Scotland’s oldest clans finally has a new chieftain after a 340-year delay.
