The Royal Cornwall Show is currently in its second day and those attending have had a surprise visit from someone, and it's not members of the Royal family.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson has made a surprise appearance at the Royal Cornwall Show this morning on what appears to be a spur-of-the-moment decision to visit the much anticipated event.

According to some reports, the Prime Minister was seen travelling through Devon and will be joining three of Cornwall's conservative MPs - Scott Mann, Cherilyn Mackrory, and Derek Thomas - during his time at the event.

Alongside the Prime Minister, their Royal Highnesses, the Duke of Cornwall and the Duchess of Cornwall will also be attending the event.

The Royal Cornwall Show this year takes place the week after the Platinum Jubilee celebrations and also marks 70 years since His Royal Highness became The Duke of Cornwall. To celebrate this, many of the Show Sections are putting on special competitions in relation to this.
