UK: Royal soldiers in red woolen tunics, bearskin hats faint in heat

The Royal Guards attempted to practise for the procession led by Prince William in London while standing in sweltering heat. The heat, of course, proved to be too much for the Gods in red, and it caused some of them to drop out. Several British soldiers were also overtaken by the heat and fell unconscious.
