A man has been charged over a 1982 car bomb attack in central London which killed four soldiers.
The Irish Republican Army (IRA) claimed responsibility for the Hyde Park blast, which happened when members of the Royal Household Cavalry paraded towards Buckingham Palace.
A further 23 soldiers from the Household Cavalry, the Queen’s official bodyguard, which carries out ceremonial duties on state occasions, were wounded.
The soldiers had been due to carry out the Changing of the Guard.
John Downey, 61, from County Donegal in Ireland, is accused of four counts of murder and a charge under the explosives act.

Survivors of Monday’s massive tornado which flattened the town of Moore in Oklahoma have been picking over what’s left of their homes to see if anything can be salvaged.
With at least 24 dead including 10 children, and more than 240 injured, some seriously, locals have realised just what their priorities are.
“Just a few walls that are on the ground, but we were able to save our family, that’s the most important,” said Moore resident Justin Stefon.
The town’s mayor, Glenn Lewis is one of many showing that the spirit to rebuild rather than to leave the region known as Tornado Ally remains strong:
“Where would we go? This is home. Yes, we will build it back, we will probably put safe rooms in all of them to make sure everybody is okay. Everywhere you go there is some kind of disaster but this is home. So we are going to rebuild.”
Harrowing tales have emerged of fear as the tornado approached and of how most of the children who died did so from suffocation when the roof of their school collapsed on them.
Experts have said trauma counselling for their surviving classmates will also be a necessity.
As rescue workers made their final sweep through the ruins making sure no one was left beneath the debris, others have already begun the next stage of putting Moore back on the map.

Is this the endgame in Syria? 18/12/2012 04:06 CET
Anti-government fighters in Syria are continuing to clash with the army in the border town of Al Qusair.
It is some of the fiercest fighting seen in months in the country’s two year old civil war, which is now said to have cost over 80,000 lives.
Government air strikes and shelling have rocked the town as the two sides battle it out for control.
Syrian TV claimed scores of opposition fighters had been killed.
Strategically, Al Qusair is important. It is right on the border with Lebanon and the latest fighting has once again drawn the nearby city of Tripoli into the conflict.
With the death toll mounting, the Lebanese army has been put on the streets of two of the city’s neighbourhoods in an attempt to bring calm.
Supporters of both the Assad regime and sympathisers of the insurgents have been clashing even though the actual conflict is in a foreign country.
The city has seen sporadic violence since the civil war in Syria started, but residents say this latest upsurge is the fiercest yet.
