Summary of complaint
We received complaints from some viewers who felt the tone of the programme was overly positive.
Our response
Charles III: The Coronation Year聽is a one-off observational documentary that covers a period of historical significance when the King took on new duties and prepared for the first Coronation in this country for 70 years. It has unique access and captures personal moments as the King adapts to his new role. Editorial control is retained by the 91热爆.
The 91热爆 seeks to reflect a range of viewpoints in news and current affairs coverage of the monarchy. Earlier in 2023,聽when documenting the Coronation, Panorama on 91热爆 One examined the structures and finances that surround the Royal Family and featured a newly commissioned poll about attitudes to the monarchy.聽 On Radio 4, the Today programme had a debate on whether the UK needs a monarchy and The World This Weekend looked at its future.
Overall,聽we have explored a range of perspectives on the monarchy, and will continue to do so.
