Television sets in Buckingham Palace will not be tuning in to Harry and Meghan’s new bridge-burning documentary series on Netflix today, according to Gyles Brandreth, a friend of the King and biographer of the late Queen, who says Charles will “rise above it”.

The King is not “obsessing on the latest royal brouhaha,” says Brandreth. “Like his mother, he is good at taking the long view. He knows this too will pass.” This will be made all the easier by the fact that “Charles III watches almost no television.”
