Charles III: The Coronation Year

On Boxing Day, the BBC broadcast Charles III: The Coronation Year following King Charles III and Queen Camilla in the aftermath of the death and state funeral of Queen Elizabeth II and the events around their subsequent Coronation.

After the death of Queen Elizabeth II, The King had to lead his family and the country in mourning. At the same time, he had to embrace his destiny on the most famous throne in the world.

With exclusive access, the cameras follow King Charles III and Queen Camilla through landmark moments of the first year of their reign, as they embrace their new roles and carry out their work and duties. Filmed as Buckingham Palace prepares for, delivers, and celebrates the first Coronation in 70 years, and in the months that followed, this historic documentary features contributions from members of the Royal Family and key players in The King and Queen’s Household.

With unrivalled insights from many of those involved, as well as moments of great poignancy and humour, this film gives a unique perspective on the inner workings behind a defining moment which marks a new era in the history of the monarchy.

  1. I watched this documentary this morning. I loved the behind-the-scenes and lovely moments leading up to the Corination. Great insight on the King, too – on his duties and responsibilities as Monarch and King n his lifetime achievements with the Prince’s Trust and his environmental campaigns… great documentary indeed.
