2023 - 19: A Coronation Celebration

Katherine Jenkins celebrates the coronation of King Charles III in the magnificent surroundings of Hampton Court Palace and explores how his faith and spirituality will shape his reign.

Inside the Great Hall, Katherine talks to royal historian Dr Tracy Borman to discover how echoes of the past still resonate in our monarchy and nations today. Pam Rhodes visits broadcaster and friend of the King, Jonathan Dimbleby, to find out more about His Majesty's deep Christian faith and how this, along with his interest in and respect for other faiths, will influence his role as monarch. Archbishop Angaelos of the Coptic Orthodox Church also shares personal insights into the King's care and support for different Christian traditions and persecuted communities.

With favourite hymns from across the UK to celebrate the occasion.
