For the first time in 70 years, the United
Kingdom and the world are preparing for the coronation of a British monarch.
But what do we know about the role, function and character of our new King?
Join Telegraph columnist Simon Heffer as he
speaks to those who can give a glimpse of Charles III: friends, former staff,
and our own royal reporters and writers.
In this first episode, Simon Heffer explores what
it means for the King to be a constitutional monarch. For decades we had a
Prince of Wales who spoke his mind, notably on questions such as the
environment, architecture and opportunities for young people. Now the only
opinions he can voice in public are those of his Government. He appears to have
adapted superbly: but might it sometimes be a struggle? And how can he assert his influence?
