A knight to remember: Kate and Wills join Her Majesty for the annual Garter Day service as crowds line the roads around Windsor Castle despite the rain
- Queen was joined by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge for the annual Garter Day service at Windsor Castle
- Downpour meant royals and guests had to arrive by car and mini bus rather than the traditional carriage procession
- Prince Charles, the Duchess of Cornwall, Prince Andrew, Prince Edward and the Countess of Wessex also attended
- Crowds braved the rain to line the streets of Windsor in the hope of catching a glimpse of the Royal Family arriving
The Queen was joined by senior members of the Royal Family as she continued her gruelling programme of public engagements with an appearance at the annual Garter Day service.
Accompanied by Prince Philip, the monarch arrived in a chauffeur-driven car after rain put paid to the traditional procession of carriages through the grounds of Windsor Castle.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were also in attendance, as were Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall, Prince Edward and the Countess of Wessex, and Prince Andrew. Kate's vibrant red Catherine Walker coat and Lock & Co hat brought a splash of colour to an overcast day.
The poor weather did not dampen the spirits of the hundreds of well-wishers who had gathered on the streets of Windsor in the hope of catching a glimpse of the royals and their guests, some of whom arrived by mini bus.

Look regal in red like the Duchess in Catherine Walker
It's been a busy few days for the Royal Family and after celebrating the Queen's 90th birthday this weekend, they're now in attendance at the annual Order of the Garter service.
And of course this has been great for those of us with a keen interest in the Duchess of Cambridge's wardrobe. For keen interest read, 'obsession'. So after rocking Roland Mouret, Alexander McQueen and Roksanda in just a matter of days, what did she have in store for us today?
As you'd expect from Kate she brought back an old favourite with this coat and matching dress by Catherine Walker. This British designer is her go-to for smart event attire and this bold red look is gorgeous, adding a bold splash of colour to proceedings.
Beautifully tailored it nips her in at the waist and is matched perfectly with her Lock & Co hat and what we believe to be suede heels by Gianvito Rossi.

The Order of the Garter is the oldest and most senior Order of Chivalry in Britain, established by King Edward III nearly 700 years ago.
Knights of the Garter are chosen personally by the Sovereign to honour those who have held public office, who have contributed in a particular way to national life or who have served the Sovereign personally.
The Queen and Prince Charles, as sovereign and heir, are automatically given membership of the Order and are considered 'ex officio knights' with the power to admit new members.
The Garter is open to British and Commonwealth citizens, with former Prime Minister Sir John Major and Lord Sainsbury numbered among the 23 current members.
Field Marshall, the Lord Bramall, a former Chief of the Defence Staff, the Duke of Abercorn, the Duke of Westminster and Baroness Manningham-Buller, the former Director-General of MI5, are also Knights of the Garter.
There are also two orders of 'extra' knights. Members of the Royal Knights and Ladies include Prince Philip, Prince Andrew, Prince Edward, Prince Charles, the Princess Royal and Prince William.

A second order, the Stranger Knights and Ladies, is bestowed on foreign rulers such as Queen Margrethe II of Denmark and Harald V of Norway.
Although new additions are named on St. George's Day, the 23rd April, the initiation ceremony takes place in June during the traditional Garter Procession, which sees members parade through Windsor wearing their blue velvet robes, known as mantels, and traditional black velvet hats.
The service for the Most Noble Order of the Garter takes place in St George's Chapel at Windsor following a private lunch in the castle.
Once at St. George's Chapel in Windsor Castle, there is a short service in which new Companions, if any, are installed by the Queen.
This year, the two new knights were admitted during the service - former Lord-Lieutenant of Greater London, Sir David Brewer, and Charles Kay-Shuttleworth, chairman of the Association of Lord Lieutenants and the Council of the Duchy of Lancaster.

The Royal Family's appearance at the service comes after a weekend filled with engagements to mark the Queen's official 90th birthday.
Celebrations started with a star-studded thanksgiving service at St Paul's Cathedral on Friday. The following day, Princess Charlotte made her public debut as she joined senior royals on the balcony of Buckingham Palace to watch a fly-past by the RAF.
Thousands also turned out for the Trooping the Colour, which is held each year to mark the monarch's official birthday.
The festivities will culminated on Sunday with a street party on The Mall, where some 10,000 people enjoyed a picnic lunch and a special parade.
