About this episode
The countdown to the Coronation is on.
Eight months after the death of his mother, Charles the Third will go through his formal investiture as King, in a ceremony he’s been waiting for his whole life.
It’s the first time the Commonwealth has witnessed a Coronation in seven decades. So what can we expect from the pomp and ceremony, and is the public keen to mark the start of the King’s reign?
Jenni Mortimer (NZ Herald lifestyle and entertainment editor and co-host of One Day You'll Thank Me) who will be covering the coronation live from London – gives Damien the lowdown on what to expect, and NZ Herald senior writer Kim Knight shares the mystery of our lost golden coronation gift from 1911.
