On 6 June 1975, firefighter Norman Winnett was nearly six hours into a night shift when the call came in to say a train had crashed at Nuneaton railway station.

Zhihan Zhao and his mother, both Chinese nationals, were with her friends at the beauty spot on the County Clare coast on 23 July last year when he walked ahead of the group.The coroner embraced Zhihan's distraught mother after recording a verdict of accidental death.

The accident was the second fatal fall at the Cliffs of Moher within a three-month period last year.Zhihan and his mother, Xianhong Huang, had arrived in Ireland 12 days before his fatal fall.In her deposition, Ms Huang said that Zhihan was walking ahead of her on the Cliffs of Moher trail when she lost sight of him.

"My son walked very fast and was ahead of us by 50 metres," she said."As there was only one path, I thought we would meet him along the way.

"When I didn't, I walked to the visitor centre and I checked the visitor centre."

Unable to find him at the visitor centre, she returned to the path to search for him and when there was no sign of him, she reported him missing.It can feel sometimes, in football terms, as if Beckham has been man-marking the royals, as he's become an ever-present at royal occasions.

The Chelsea Flower Show, a Buckingham Palace state banquet, an Italian dinner at Highgrove, charity events, have all seen the Beckhams in the line-up of guests to meet the royals.Last month, Catherine, the Princess of Wales, wore a dress designed by Victoria Beckham at a British Fashion Council event.

There is an independent honours committee that considers who should get awards such as knighthoods, rather than the royals.But if he becomes "Sir David", the ceremony won't be the first time he'll have met the royals. There is already a close relationship.
