Eight months ago, the United Kingdom brought out its flags, although for a less festive event, the death of Queen Elizabeth II. After seven decades of reign (she was the longest-reigning monarch in the United Kingdom), seven decades during which her eldest son, Charles, was already heir apparent – that is, next in line to the throne – the prince for so long became king. And although he has since officially served as monarch, it is not until now when He is officially crowned King of England. Together with his wife, Camila Parker Bowles, they are the two protagonists of the day.
The coronation ceremony starts in the morning, with the first monarchs procession, from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Abbey. The official act of coronation, directed by the Archbishop of Canterbury, primate of the Anglican Church, takes place between 12:00 and 14:00 (Spanish peninsular time), at which time Carlos III receives the crown, the scepter and the orb. You can follow the coronation live both within the United Kingdom and outside; on laSexta there will be a special program about one of the most important events for the British.
