OXFORD Castle and Prison have been stocking up on Royal wedding merchandise fit for a king ahead of tomorrow's big event.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle mugs, pens, tea towels and notebooks have been helping staff get into the spirit ahead of the wedding.

Puppets/soft toys are also available for the princely sum of £15.

It's the first time that the castle has sold Royal wedding-themed merchandise.

Sales and marketing manager Saffron Bowdler, pictured above, said: "We have noticed a real excitement, especially with international guests.

"Old and young, foreign and domestic guests have all been excited by the transatlantic union. Lots of Americans keep commenting on it."

Oxford has long been linked to royal British traditions: in the 12th century, Empress Matilda - an heir to the throne - miraculously escaped the castle during a siege.

Miss Bowdler, 24, added: "It's nice that we can still keep our links to the royals - the tourists love it."
