The historic broadcast will begin at 10.15 a.m. on Coronation Day. The scene in the Abbey will form the subject of a descriptive talk by a narrator in a box in the treforium, while awaiting the arrival there of the King and Queen. Another narrator will be established in the specially-built annexe to the Abbey. Foreign commentators will he accommodated in separate boxes near the entrance to the annexe.
