Mitchell Pearce, Boyd Cordner, and even Nick Politis, the club's supremo, were among the finalists whose gold screen debuts, and the footballers only learned about it on their trip to the United States.

Ben Lawson has written a heartfelt tribute to his Designated Survivor co-star Adan Canto, who died on Monday after a fight with appendiceal cancer. The Australian actor, 43, expressed his sorrow over the news and remembered his talent and humour. In a post on Instagram, he wrote, "I am extremely sad to hear the news that @adancanto has passed."

As early risers descended into British pubs in Manhattan to commemorate the historic event, the Big Apple has brought in the Coronation in style. Only hours after the Empire State Building lit up in Union Jack's iconic red, white, and blue, Times Square was packed with early-morning festivities.
