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 episode, Simon Heffer and guests look at how our new King relates to his people.
How he operated as Prince of Wales, whether he will bring a new style to the monarchy, and what influence Queen Camilla has had, and continues to have, on the King.
