BBC News Published Hundreds of people queued outside a Coventry pub which opened at midnight as lockdown restrictions eased. Darren Lee, owner of the Oak Inn, said 260 customers were seated in groups of up to six at its outside tables - but 300 to 400 people were turned away. He said crowds at the Gosford Street pub were "very well behaved" and police were satisfied with the situation. However, Coventry City Council said it was investigating to see whether it followed rules. Shops, pub gardens, hairdressers and other venues have reopened in England, with rules also being eased in the rest of the UK.
