Post Single engine over London

Don't get me wrong, I think it was a fine gesture, but how did they get round the rules for the Spitfire fly-past at Westminster Abbey?

I believe the whole of London (including rivers) is treated as a 'congested area' for the 1500' and alight clear rules.

'because it was military?

'because CAA said OK?

Can anyone tell me?
