One of the weirder things about the coronation of Sausage Hands Charlie (amongst a myriad of utterly bizarre things, honestly – we’ll get to that at the end) regards a man sat in the throng who looked like someone in disguise. The internet had a laugh and joked that it was obviously Meghan Markle in prosthetics.

It was in fact, Sir Karl Jenkins of Soft Machine.

He took to social media to say: “I understand there has been a lot of interest in me since I appeared at the coronation of King Charles III. I was there because I’d written some music for the service. I was quite surprised that some people thought I was Meghan Markle in disguise. Someone wrote I was there, whoever I was, to steal the Crown Jewels!”

“I look this way all the time. I’ve had this moustache since I was 18 years old. It was very trendy then. So that’s me… Nothing sinister about it or surprising at all.”

Jenkins actually wrote a piece of music for the ceremony, but at least it’s all a bit of fun in the face of a completely ogreish event, eh? Lovely stuff.

Anyway, we didn’t watch the show because why would we? BUT we did see something online that made us laugh, which was basically the appearance of the Grim Reaper from Bill & Ted, stomping off after someone sunk his battleship.

Great craic. Have a look for yourself. Shpooky.
