justice will require a formal apology. and a new opinion poll suggests support for the monarchy is waning, especially among the young. this, i think, is a problem for charles. how can he, as it were, recruit the young to support of the monarchy? the uk s very different today from when the king s mother was crowned 70 years ago. can he, and will he, change the monarchy? bells ring cheering charles and camilla are on a walkabout at york minster. it s exciting. the atmosphere s lovely. jack wants to see the king. big crowds have turned out to welcome them. i think they make a lovely couple and i think they re very dignified. amazed. really privileged to see that, yeah. god save the king! there s a small but noisy protest here, too. chants: not my king! all: not my king! republicans who want to get rid of the hereditary monarchy and have an elected head of state instead. across the country, there are millions of people who want the monarchy abolished. they spend so much of our mo
