Norway has a new King, Haakon the Eighth, who has taken the throne after the death of his father King Harald, who died at the age of 89.
Norway’s prime minister said the entire nation was in mourning, while the Union Jack Flag flew at half mast over Buckingham Palace as a sign of respect.
The country’s incoming monarch is surrounded by considerable controversy involving his wife’s past contacts with the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, and his stepson’s conviction for rape.
