"Pilot to pilot, Your Majesty, you can be my wingman any time," Cruise said.

The concert, hosted by Hugh Bonneville, celebrated the Coronation of Their Majesties The King and The Queen. Approximately 20,000 members of the public and invited guests were in attendance, while millions were expected to be watching at home.
