I remember seeing programme about the queen and was mentioned in that, that the queen has made her position very clear to Charles that she will never step aside and that the only way he will become king is when she dies.
I think Charles is a bit of a dinosaur. When he becomes king, whenever that may be, I think there will be a certain apathy towards his coronation.
