Whilst we waited for our fish and chip lunch to arrive people recalled watching the event on their TV at home, although  we have to remember that not everyone owned a television back in 1953.  Where were you on Coronation day?  " I was outside The Palace” one gent recalls, " on guard duty, I had a spectacular view of the event”
 "I watched in Church Street, Bilston, I watched the whole thing on a television in a shop window” said one lady  "well me and my brothers went next door with our mom and dad, "well, they had a telly, we couldn’t afford one.  "We went to the Town Hall at Bilston; they had a dance on that night, there was lots of folk about, everyone enjoyed themselves.
