A state visit always sends a buzz through the newsroom — and U.S. President Donald Trump’s trip to the U.K. next week looks set to deliver royal, political and business headlines, despite being his second such visit.
Wednesday will bring the royal pomp and ceremony.
Trump and First Lady Melania will be greeted at Windsor Castle by King Charles and Queen Camilla with a royal salute, followed by a carriage procession.
Later, the president will lay a wreath on the tomb of Queen Elizabeth II, which will be followed by a flypast of American F-35 military jets alongside the British Red Arrows. The day will end with a state banquet, during which both the king and president will make speeches.
On Thursday, it’s down to business.
