‘Beautiful experience’: Enthusiasts watch partial solar eclipse as Moon covers the Sun

Eclipse is ‘bringing good vibes’ and fond memories for viewers in Greenwichpublished at 12:09 Greenwich Mean Time

We’ve been speaking to some of the viewers who made their way to the Royal Observatory in Greenwich to catch the partial solar eclipse.

Elizabeth Binney is visiting London from Thailand and headed to Greenwich this morning with a running group.

“It’s such a buzz, I didn’t think this was going to be part of my Saturday morning,” she tells the BBC, adding “it’ll be one of my memories of my time in London”.

Priyanka Prasher, originally from Birmingham and now living in London, says it’s a lovely atmosphere.

“It’s bringing good vibes… and it’s a nice symbol of saying hello to spring,” she says.

“My mum is visiting so I thought it would be a really nice experience to mark the occasion with the solar eclipse just before Mother’s Day.”
