The Queen has been referred to as Brenda by some of her friends. But they've always called her Brenda, she says. She was either very close to death or had died already, it became clear. The coverage has been fantastic, the commentators managing to talk for a long time but in an interesting and articulate way.
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.
