The eyes of the world will be on the UK today with the Coronation of King Charles III. It will be a historic event and for many Scots it will be a hugely emotional day.
The monarchy retains majority support largely because of the way the late Queen Elizabeth conducted herself throughout her reign. She was hugely popular across the social classes and a role model for women across the world.
While many Scots will be excited by the big day, others will be looking on with a sense of detached bemusement. A hereditary monarch jars with modern values and many young people struggle to connect with the institution.
