Campaign for city honour for Coldplay frontman

A campaign's been launched to get the Freedom of the City of Exeter conferred on the lead singer of Coldplay.


Chris Martin was brought up at Whitstone near Exeter and his parents still live there.

A Facebook page has been set up to gather support for the proposal before presenting it to the city council.

The lord mayor of Exeter Percy Prowse says his daughters are fans of Coldplay .. but he prefers the Royal Marines Band.
