It was a bit like kind of stepping back into the past. Yes, it was. Very well. And the words the same as we used in Henry VIII's time and the proclamation happened in a Tudor building, you know, dated from the 16th century. It was very much like stepping back in time. But it was all sorts of silly things happened during it, which I was fascinated by because they had this sort of throne that Charles stood in front of me, didn't sit on.
Talking to my parents about events in the UK following the death of The Queen on 9 September, including the media coverage, the proclamation of King Charles III, comments about Charles as King and a discussion of the role of the monarch in the UK’s constitution. Also includes some comments about the new Prime Minister Liz Truss and the future of the UK government over the next 18 months.
