As King Charles III is officially proclaimed at a special ceremony on Saturday following the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, the nation has entered a period of reflection and mourning.
After the Queen's passing on Thursday in Aberdeenshire, attentions turned to the events that will occur in the next week in the form of Charles' official proclamation and coronation, as well as Her Majesty's funeral.
Naturally, the history and childhood of the nation's new sovereign has been explored in great depth, including his days as a youth in Scotland and how his experience at a school in Gordonstoun, Moray, left a long-lasting mark on his life.
