Prince Charles has never shied away from getting down with the kids, and he was up to his old tricks on the streets of South London yesterday, when he was accosted by a group of local kids armed with cell phones and Dre headphones who co-erced the champion of the double-breasted suit into an impromptu photo shoot.

Charles was was visiting the Oval cricket ground and the youths were all working with his charity, The Prince’s Trust.

The group tried to get Charles to pull some gang signs, but he wisley pointed his finger at the camera instead.
