00:00 Let's hear what some of Charles' subjects make of his first year as king.
00:05 I think he's done the right thing by not coming in and making huge sweeping changes and promises.
00:11 He's made long-term promises that he knows he can work with.
00:15 I'm still not getting over the procession of him in his golden carriage looking down
00:20 on all the peasants.
00:21 You know, when we're all starving and all our bills are going up and he's parading through
00:28 the town like king, whatever.
00:31 No, it means nothing to me to be honest.
00:34 He's very much kept to the traditional 'don't interfere with politics' and therefore he's
00:40 maintained respect.
00:41 But on the other hand, he's managed to continue his commitments to environmental things, so
00:46 I'm quite impressed with him for that.
00:48 She was revered by everybody because she was the longest living monarch.
00:53 So he's not going to have that accolade, but I think he will do extremely well.
