Holidaymakers, locals, children, babies and dogs lined the streets of the picturesque seaside town, with royal fans calling out: “God Save the King – and Queen Camilla, too.”

Their Majesties shook hands and chatted to well-wishers as they strolled down to the harbour to meet lifeboat crew and lifeguards at the RNLI station, where the Queen was presented with a posy of flowers by three-year-old Ada Cocking, who was there with her sister Violet, eight, and their parents, coxswain Rob and his wife Charlotte.
