Monday, May 8: the “ Big Help Out” and bank holiday. The palace is encouraging Brits to spend their day off volunteering. There will probably be a handful of “leading citizens from the Commonwealth” as well as various heads of state, the prime minister, MPs — that sort of thing. Before 2,300 guests, King Charles and Queen Camilla went through the ancient rituals, with a twist of modern signals about diversity. The coronation concert will see music stars descend on Windsor Castle, with Take That, Katy Perry and Lionel Richie on the line-up. Asked what drew Americans to watch a British monarch ascend to the throne, Anderson said: “History, isn’t it?”

Also on display are some of the historic vestments worn by His Majesty for the moment of crowning. These include the Coronation Glove, worn to hold the Sovereign’s Sceptre, and the Girdle (or Coronation Sword Belt). The Stole Royal was newly created for the occasion and embroidered by the Royal School of Needlework, from a design prepared by the Royal College of Arms. It was presented to His Majesty by His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales during the service. Visitors will be able to see the final designs for the stole alongside the item itself.

As a duke (of York), Andrew would likely have had to kneel in front of Charles and pay homage if this coronation were ushering in an earlier rule. But Charles has reportedly excised that portion of the program, absolving himself of awkward encounters not only with Andrew but also with Harry, the Duke of Sussex. William will still have to perform the Homage of Royal Blood — kneeling in front of his father, holding hands with him, and swearing to remain his “liege man of life and limb” — but William is the future king ( of pegging?) so that obligation makes sense. Yes. He defaulted into the position as soon as his mother died; his siblings had to kiss his hands about it. But it would be unseemly to have a big multiday celebration on the heels of a family funeral, so the past few months have served as a buffer period for mourning and planning. Still, protocol demands that a coronation take place within one year of the previous monarch’s death. Live. Laugh. Love. Instant. Light. Lumpwood. Charcoal. https://t.co/tsNjb2XMOB— CoronationTat (@CoronationTat) April 25, 2023 More than 20 million people watched the service on television, many crowded around neighbours' screens, outnumbering the radio audience for the first time.A coronation,” as the Royal Collection Trust defines it, “is the formal investiture of a monarch with their regal powers. It is a grand, celebratory event in which the monarch is presented with royal ceremonial objects, such as the Crown Jewels, and it is where the crown is physically placed on the sovereign’s head, in front of many thousands of very important guests.”
