Oh that was really lovely. I was so ready for him to start crying, but he held it together very well. I'm impressed!

He really wears his heart on his sleeve which, ironically, I think he had a hard time about when younger as he was “sensitive” but I think this will serve him excellently as king. I really empathised with him.

Doesn't he just.
Thank you - that was exactly the phrase I was looking for. He will be different to the Queen for that reason. Not better or worse but different.

(I'm not fully up with royal protocol - does anyone know if Harry was still a working royal would he have had another title bestowed on him? I read he might become Duke of Cambridge now, but no mention).

Beautiful. Well done Charles.

(I took the reference to Harry and Meghan 'continuing life abroad' to mean they haven't been welcomed back into the fold.)

I took it as an expression of his love for his son and daughter in law

When it actually happened there was absolute uproar. Charles was absolutely vilified and I cannot stress the amount of abuse Camilla faced.

There was also the Diana 'Squidgygate' tapes of similarly recorded private conversation between her and James Gilby.

Their private telephone conversation were being picked by radio enthusiasts. Charles and Diana had already separated.

I love he referenced both sons. I believe he loves them very much.

People are going to read all sorts into the Harry reference but I am taking it as he said it. He loves him, he’s doing his own thing, everyone leave it.

That happened to my fil. He got up one day, had breakfast etc. Sat down on the sofa and collapsed. By noon he was gone. It was a few strokes.

Yes just a different approach to the Queen which I think is good and natural considering he is taking the throne 70 years after her. She served her duty excellently for the times she lived in and I believe Charles will do the same.

Oh my goodness that was amazing. We’re all in bits in my house. God bless The King

I think both his mother and father would be very proud of him with that speech.

I think she was shocked at the crowds reaction to Charles and most likely relieved.

I think he and Camilka are decent and try to do good things for their charities. If we are getting rid of Kinfs because they were adulterous, we'd have maybe one King ( The Queens father). The rest have all had open mistresses many of whom were part of the family.

So did I.

I think Charles will be a fine King. Ironically I think the length of time it has taken for him to become King will work in his favour. I think if he had become King 20 years ago he would have been a disaster. I think he will rely on William quite a lot.

It’s when he mentioned his “papa”

Same, the middle section talking about his family and his face lighting up at the mention of Camilla softened the sadness of it all and made me smile, but the end of them being together hit me
