Practicing for what would be the biggest moment in his time as a member of the clergy, Justin Welby can be forgiven for a case of nerves. And new footage of rehearsals for King Charles III's coronation, released by the BBC ahead of being broadcast in full on Boxing Day, reveals that not even the Archbishop of Canterbury is immune to fluffing his lines. Charles III looks amused as the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, fluffs his lines during the rehearsal for his Coronation as seen in the documentary Charles III: The Coronation Year King Charles III is crowned with St Edward's Crown by the Archbishop of Canterbury on May 6 - with no lines forgotten this time Queen Camilla is crowned by Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby during her coronation ceremony in Westminster Abbey The Archbishop later joked that his memory was 'about as good as our spaniel's — in other words, zero' King Charles III and Prince William at the Coronation rehearsal in Westminster Abbey The off-the-cuff remark prompts laughter from everyone present - including the King.
