The coronation - PROMO BBC

As the nation prepares to mark a historic day, Kirsty Young is joined by a range of guests who give personal insights into the King and Queen Consort as they look ahead to the coronation.

Some of the lucky invited guests attending the ceremony talk to the programme, along with those who have had close and personal connections with King Charles for many years. Kirsty speaks to celebrities who have spent time with the King, and hears from some of the people across the nation taking on once-in-a-lifetime roles in this historic ceremony.

Sophie Raworth joins from outside Westminster Abbey, while JJ Chalmers speaks to members of the military as they prepare for one of the biggest military parades in British living memory.
