REVELLERS were astonished when the future King of England walked into a Bournemouth club.

Prince William, who recently arrived in Purbeck to begin a specialist training course in how to command reconnaissance units, was spotted partying at Elements in Fir Vale Road in the early hours of Friday.

The Prince spent almost three hours in the club where he had a few pints of Stella and happily posed for pictures with female admirers.

The 24-year-old, who is a member of the Household Cavalry's Blues and Royals, recently moved to the officers' mess at Bovington Army Camp from Combermere Barracks in Windsor.
