Twitter users predictably tittered over the coronation of King Charles III in London on Saturday.
Much fun was poked at the Westminster Abbey ceremony, with the social media platform seeing a flood of gags about the new monarch, Queen Camilla, Prince Harry, singer Katy Perry, a suspected appearance of the Grim Reaper, and more.
Here’s a roundup of some of the funniest posts so far:

This coordinated walk has screwed up chess for me. Surely the guy in the middle should go one step at a time and the other two zip around diagonally. pic.twitter.com/7sl2Cwfw2p
