bore da 3 croeso. good morning. welcome to our coverage of a very special day for wales as charles iii, the man who was prince of wales for more than 60 years, returns for the first time as king. we have to go back to 1958 when queen elizabeth announced that her eldest son, aged just nine, would become prince of wales and as she became the longest serving british monarch in history, he is the longest serving prince of wales. wales, in his own words, "the country whose title i've been so greatly privileged to bear during so much of my life and duty." we had seen him visit scotland and northern ireland since the death of the queen and today marks the final visit for king charles on his tour of the nations of the united kingdom. it will be a momentous moment for the nation when he arrives in cardiff and takes his first steps on welsh soil as king. let me tell you what is going to happen today. king charles will arrive at around 11:10 by helicopter, together with the queen consort. they will be escorted directly to llandaff cathedral for a service of prayer and reflection. after the service, the royal party will proceed to cardiff bay where at the senedd, the welsh parliament, the first minister will propose a motion of condolence on behalf of the people of wales. their visit to the welsh capital finishes at cardiff castle with a private audience with the first minister and llywydd, we also expect the biggest crowds there. llywydd is the presiding officer, followed by a reception with representatives from royal patronages and faith communities. the king'sjourney will take him to some of the oldest locations in the city as well as one of the newest — the seat of power of the devolved nation at the senedd. at llandaff, a city within a city, crowds have already gathered on the green, not only to pay their respects to her majesty the queen but also to get their first glimpse of king charles. and in llandaff cathedral invited guests are taking their seats for a service of prayer and reflection. to witness the occasion is gethinjones. bore da from llandaff cathedral, looking its very best due to the morning sunshine and the beautiful blue skies. i am very familiar with this area, i got to stay with my mam and dad last night and i made my way here on foot which is probably the best way due to the crowds gathering in anticipation for seeing the king and paying their respects to her majesty queen elizabeth. shortly the kick will be making his way to the service. —— shortly the king. this has been the scene of many a royal visit in the past — including his majesty king george v and queen mary over a century ago in 1912. queen elizabeth and prince philip visited on numerous occasions, including celebrations marking her majesty's silver and diamond jubilees. today is a very different. a more sombre occasion. an atmosphere of quiet reflection as people look forward to that service of remembrance and prayer in about half an hour. the last time the king was here was as the prince of wales in 2018 in a service to mark the 70th anniversary of the nhs. the following year, 2019, he celebrated 50 years as prince of wales with a tour of wales which started right here at llandaff cathedral. he will make its way to the cathedral, where that will be invited guests representing politics, culture and religion from all over wales, gathered to pay their respects to her majesty the queen. and inside to guide us through proceedings is gareth lewis. thank you. this is a cathedral that stops you in your tracks as soon you step inside. this is the magnificent majestus, christ in majesty, by jacob epstein. apps not something you would expect to see in a cathedral dating from the sixth century. it was installed in 1957, a symbol of the cathedral rising from the ashes of war after it was bombed by the luftwaffe. this place has a history of rising from the ashes, the organ dates from 2010, the old one damaged beyond repair into thousand and seven when the cathedral was struck by lightning. it is big, almost 5000 pipes and there is a strong royal link. his majesty the king was patron of the £i.5 majesty the king was patron of the £1.5 million fundraising campaign to gareth lewis there for us at llandaff cathedral. beautiful. i should say that if you would like to follow today's events without commentary then that option is available on the red button. so, as we wait for the new king to arrive let's take a look back at her majesty queen elizabeth ii's long relationship with the people and places in wales. she always showed a concern for every single person who lives in the uk, and being welsh is an important part of that. she was always one to make the people she met feel at ease. you knew in the future these moments would become very, very— important. queen elizabeth's long relationship with wales had its roots in her early childhood. a miniature welsh cottage, y bwthyn bach, was gifted to the six—year—old princess on behalf of the children of wales. it has since been loved by generations of royals. look in there first. often under the original owner's watchful eye. this early bond with wales grew steadily. in 1916, a 20—year—old princess elizabeth came to the national eisteddfod in mountain ash to be honoured with her own bardic name. elizabeth windsor. but her first official tour of wales as queen came later, two years after her coronation. it was a huge event, and the first chance for the welsh people to show their affection for the young monarch. she, in turn, found plenty which chimed with her own passions, not least her love of horses. the queen and the duke - made their way first to see the welsh mountain ponies being judged. and one of them, called - 0wain glyn dwr, was to show an unsuitable appetite i for the royal carnations. in subsequent years she visited wales frequently, through times of celebration and of grief. in 1966 tragedy struck. in aberfan, a coal heap collapsed onto a village school, killing 116 children. the queen, herself the mother of young children, visited the village and was visibly shocked. i think it is a difficult thing that she did, having children herself, of course, being a mother herself, she could empathise with people there. it was a wonderful thing to come to the village. people needed something at that time because it was such a terrible thing that had happened. the queen vowed to return to aberfan, a promise she fulfilled on several occasions to share in the community's rebuilding and remembrance. the lives of those who serve in the welsh regiments and their families were always close to the queen's heart. in 1995 simon mainwaring was one of a group of welch fusiliers taken hostage in bosnia. his wife sandra had recently given birth. it was just total dread and fear, got a tiny baby, and i just thought he would never know who his dad was. on a visit to the regiment�*s barracks near haverfordwest, the queen requested a private meeting with sandra and the wives of the hostages. she was a genuine mum, and she could understand that i was a mum and how i must be feeling. in fact, she did say she was leaving, and she looked back and she said, "we will try our best to help your men." thankfully the hostages were released a few days later. the queen asked to meet them. she wanted to see them and see how they work and i remember her saying to me, "oh my, hasn't the baby grown." —— and see how they were. throughout her long reign her majesty was a regular visitor to wales, supporting her charities and leading national events like the spectacular gala opening of the wales millennium centre. her last visit at the age of 95 was to open the latest session of the welsh parliament. it is a pleasure to be with you today, and i congratulate you on your recent election. over the years it is clear that her majesty's commitment to wales and interest in its people never waned. there is something incredibly brilliant about meeting her majesty, and the days i met her, these are the ones that shine. in all the times i - met her she was kind of warm and welcoming, _ every single time she made you feel that you were really important. she always carried out her duties as long as she was able to do it. and that, i think, is a lesson to us all. it's well known that her majesty the queen has a deep underlying faith. in fact, she swore an oath to be the defender of the faith, something she took very seriously. joining me is dr barry morgan, former archbishop of wales. great to see you this morning. some fabulous footage of the queen's relationship with wales. how do you assess that over a lifetime? it is assess that over a lifetime? it is uuite assess that over a lifetime? it is quite obvious — assess that over a lifetime? it is quite obvious she _ assess that over a lifetime? it 3 quite obvious she was very assess that over a lifetime? it 1 quite obvious she was very fond of wales, came quite often, very touching but she went back to aberfan several times because that really touched a chord with her, i think. it was not a one—off visits, she came back again and again and again, and people in aberfan will tell you she took an interest in what was going on. i tell you she took an interest in what was going on.— tell you she took an interest in what was going on. i was

suppose as a mother herself she understood something about the pain of what those parents must have been going through, and therefore she really empathised and sympathised and came back again and again to that village. and of course other parts of wales too, she came to llandaff cathedral several times when i was there, she came to open the parliament several times and always seemed very glad to be in wales. ., ., , ., , . wales. you would be in that select u-rou wales. you would be in that select a-rou of wales. you would be in that select grow» of clergymen _ wales. you would be in that

you would call it select, _ what was that like? i'm not sure you would call it select, it _ what was that like? i'm not sure you would call it select, it is _ would call it select, it is nerve—racking. i think i had to preach in front of her three or four times and of course there were preparations for when she would eventually die, for this service today. i did not think i would still be in office when she died, to be honest, so i am glad i am not the one who has to preach at the memorial service today but one of my successors. she always puts you at ease about it. i remember preaching in front of her at sandringham, the drill was that you go for the weekend and i think it is unusual for the archbishop of wales to go because normally it is just restricted to bishops of the church of england, she forgot the church of wales was established and i was invited. you had to preach, and i remember i gave the blessing in welsh, not realising that in fact the choir sang the amen, but they came in beautifully at the queen was highly amused and said to me, you must have told you would give the blessing in welsh and i said, actually, i didn't, blessing in welsh and i said, actually, ididn�*t, ijust blessing in welsh and i said, actually, i didn't, ijust gave the blessing spontaneously, as i do. she said they were perfect. i said, yes, i could take them back to llandaff, some parish choirs still do not have it, they do not come in on time when i give the blessing in welsh. it it, they do not come in on time when i give the blessing in welsh.- i give the blessing in

to reflect and to remember the queen, for wales and to remember the queen, for wales and for the cathedral? very important because she has been to edinburgh, she has been to belfast... the king, i mean, the king has been to belfast and he has been to edinburgh and now he is coming to wales, and it is a service of reflection and prayer in llandaff cathedral. it's different from the other places because not only is it an ecumenical service but it is an interfaith service in the sense that the secretary general of the muslim council for wales is offering a prayer, as indeed is somebody from the jewish faith and the prayer, as indeed is somebody from thejewish faith and the chair of thejewish faith and the chair of the interfaith council for wales and it is also totally bilingual, the hymns, there is one him in welsh, one in english and referred here, there is a third verse in welsh, they are well—known hymns, one by rhys nicholas, which talks about the importance ofjesus christ and the queen herself of course talked about the importance of the christian faith for her personally, and how she prayed. and she saw herself as well as having a vocation. we tend to think that only clergy have vocations but she saw herself as having a vocation to this role that she had been anointed to and took it very seriously. i remember her telling me once that she saw it as a lifelong thing, unless of course she became totally incapacitated by dementia or motor neurone disease she would carry on to the end, as indeed she did.— indeed she did. interesting stuff. we will get _ indeed

where most of the congregation are now in their seats. amongst the guests expected today is liz truss who, just last week, was appointed prime minister by the queen. his majesty the king and his queen consort camilla are currently making their way to wales in a helicopter. they are due to land at around 20 minutes' time. 0ur colleague gareth lewis is inside the cathedral and has details of what we can expect from today's service. some of those guests were arriving very early, been here the best part of two hours already, but as you said it is really filling up now. that is adam price nearest the camera, the leader of plaid cymru, jane dodge, leader of the welsh liberal democrats next to him and then andrew rt davies, leader of the welsh tories in the senedd, there is party unity, that is the llywydd, a plaid cymru senedd member, two andrew rt davies's right. as gethin said, you have politicians, you have members of the armed services. the emergency services, farming unions, businesses, and right at the back on the left you can see the cadets and various younger people have been invited especially along for the occasion today. they reckon about 440 people in all is the capacity and they come i can tell you now, have been all smiles since they got here about an hour or so ago. the first thing you'll notice at home today when the service gets under way, particularly if you're watching outside of wales is it will be bilingual, so in english and in welsh, and a lot of the people speaking or officiating today are either fluent both languages, or have welsh as their first language. they have just spotted themselves! and talking of language, that is a william morgan bible from 1588. william morgan bible from 1588. william morgan bible from 1588. william morgan translated the first complete bible, so old testament and new testament into welsh from greek and hebrew. that one is on loan from the national library in aberystwyth and will be carried down the aisle at the start of the ceremony by two youngsters from the cathedral sunday school alice and toby. the print quality is absolutely outstanding for a book of that age. also today the harpist considered wales's national instrument and we have two welsh harpists playing today, that is the current royal harpist alice hughes from powys and alongside her catrin finch, one of her predecessors. you can see the detail on the harp, it is decorated with welsh motifs, the prince of wales's feathers at the top and also leeks and daffodils, it is synonymous with wales after the prince of wales reinstated the role for the first time in more than 120 years that there had been a royal harpist. in terms of who will address the congregation today, i will have a reading in welsh from the first book of kings from wales's first minister mark drakeford, it is the granting of wisdom from god to king solomon during a dream, reading i suppose about what it makes to be a good leader and also hear from the archbishop of wales the most reverend andrewjohn who will give the address and the blessing, quite a day for him, he's been archbishop not quite for a year yet. players will be led by the archbishop of llandaff, and there will be multi—faith prayer is, and prayers from across the denominations. —— prayers will be led by the archbishop of llandaff. at the end both national anthems will be sung. the welsh national anthem, land of my fathers, then god save the king. and as the politicians wait to come at the end of the service king charles and the queen consort camilla will sign the visitors' book which has a very special and relatively recent royal history of its own. and there is the book in front of the triptychs which we have seen already. the two youngsters, by the way, will be carrying the bible a little later on. that book part of the history, part of the unique fabric of this cathedral, as we will find out now, as we look back at some of the historic royal visits to llandaff cathedral. llandaff cathedral in cardiff has been the focal point of many a royal visit to the welsh capital. queen elizabeth ii had a long—standing connection to the cathedral. her first visit to llandaff was to attend the official reopening in 1960. the building had been almost destroyed by a german bomb during the cardiff blitz in the second world war. 20 years later the cathedral was reborn with a new statue of christ by sculptor jacob epstein at its heart. arthur impey was a steward on the day. it was a very big occasion. all the stops were pulled out, all the high and mighty of the land were invited to it. she looks now at the great epstein statue that soars over the nave. the queen arrived, looking up at the epstein statue. i wouldn't like to say what her reaction was to it. i was a very young steward, onlyjust over 20, so i ended up, in fact, guarding a far distant door and i was rather annoyed because i really didn't see anything of the actual service. but then the queen left the cathedral and came to my door, so i had quite a close—up view, in the end, of the queen. her majesty visited llandaff on three further occasions. the most spectacular during her silverjubilee. she returned again in 2012 to mark 60 years of her reign. my role was to greet her and to welcome her, and then to preach, which was an unnerving kind of experience. she just remarked about how lovely the cathedral was, and how glad she was be back. and the queen is not the only royal to have made an impression at llandaff over the years. in 1991 prince william visited the cathedral with his parents to make his first public appearance. to great interest of all the press they discovered that _ prince william is left—handed. nobody had noticed this before, as far as the general public- was concerned. days like these live long in the memory, and none more so than when queen elizabeth was present. the christian faith was important in her personal life, and she took her— duty as queen, therefore, very seriously. to have her majesty marking an occasion with a royal- visit, they are important events in the life of the nation. - she was held in great affection by the people in wales, and you could see that when on royal visits people would turn out in their thousands just to greet her and to wave to her. wonderful watching some of those memories of her majesty visiting llandaff and two people watching with such enjoyment and interest were former welsh guardsman, author, broadcaster simon weston and brilliant director of music at the royal welsh college of

first time, it is a real historic moment, isn't it? it is hugely significant and former prince of wales, now king, just being here, and just knowing that he's always been such an active prince of

you over to my colleague gareth lewis. nick, thank you. it is a wonderful setting, even the weather doing its best this morning. the cathedral in a little hollow hidden from view, even hidden from view of those at the top of the hill, it is intimate and private, and also very public at the same time with the eyes of the whole world on what is happening in llandaff here this morning. the royal couple being greeted by the vice lord lieutenant of south glamorgan and then as we have seen throughout the week the greetings before the entrance to the service itself, that is so robert buckman, the welsh secretary at westminster, the welsh secretary at westminster, the first to greet the king. and next to him mark drakeford, wales's first minister, who is giving one of the readings later. next to mr drakeford is rustling moriarty simmons, the high sheriff, a tireless campaign and she is the lead of the thalidomide memorial. you will have sensed, this morning, to the excitement, yes, it is sombre, there will be dignity, but the crowd absolutely delighted to get their first glimpse of the king on welsh soil, and moment i'm sure no one here today will ever forget. ——rosaleen moriarty—simmonds. the police officer isjeremy vaughan, the police constable of south wales police, pointed during wales's vibrate lockdown during the pandemic. the gentleman with the grey hair with the robes is the acting dean of llandaff cathedral who will then introduce the leaders of other faiths abdul as ahmed, chair of the muslim council in wales and the gentleman with the white beard is the reverend aled edwards, chief executive of churches together in wales, and he always has a smile for whoever he speaks to and a a story to tell, and i'm sure he will have many more to tell after this morning. everyone of those leaders will give a prayer during the service. that isjune 0sborne, the bishop of llandaff, one of the original 1500 women ordained in england back in 1994 as priests. she is only wales's second ever female bishop. she has had some momentous days before, this may well be the most momentous of the lot and next to her is the archbishop of wales, also the bishop of bangor, the most reverend andrewjohn. the cross you can see is the metro political cross, which is always carried before the archbishop of wales in procession. and as the religious leaders make their way in, final words before the royal party enters the cathedral. the acting dean very relaxed in rehearsals yesterday, it looks completely at ease this morning too. 440 people from all walks of life across wales waiting for this service of reflection of remembrance, thanksgiving to begin. # tydi a wnaeth y wyrth, 0! # grist, fab duw, tydi a roddaist imi flas ar fyw,' # fe gydiaist ynof trwy dy

went up the mountain; and after he sat down, his disciples came to him. then he began to speak, and taught them, saying: "blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. "blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. "blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. "blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, "for they will be filled. "blessed are the merciful, for they will receive mercy. "blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see god. "blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of god. "blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, "for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." you are the light of the world. a city built on a hill cannot be hidden. no one after lighting a lamp puts it under the bushel basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house. in the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory this is the word of the lord. all: thanks be to god. # almighty god, whose faithfulness is like the mountains # and whose mercy like the rain # whose wisdom ordained # that the lines should fall

to god for the life of queen elizabeth ii. here in wales, wejoin with the whole united kingdom, the commonwealth and with people across the world, to grieve her passing. we remember her service and dedication. this was truly a life of grace and wisdom. today we recognise too the sorrow of our new king and his family. in their grief, we assure them of our love and care for them and of our prayers. your majesties, it is an honour to welcome you here and to have been invited to host this service. wrth inni fyfyrio ar ei bywyd, rydym yn ymestyn yn ol ar draws yr oesoedd. ei theyrnasiad o 70 mlynedd a 214 diwrnod oedd yr hiraf o unrhyw monarch brydeinig a'r ail hiraf a gofnodwyd o unrhyw monarch mewn gwlad sofran. anrhydeddwn heddiw etifeddiaeth ryfeddol o wasanaeth a defosiwn sydd heb gyfartal yn hanes ein cenedl. across the country many have recognised the impact our late queen had on our public life as well as in the lives of individuals; on how, from the earliest days, she transformed the monarchy bringing an accessibility to a country still emerging from the ravages of war. her skills of diplomacy are well known but she had the ability to relate to the man or the woman on the clapham 0mnibus or here the merthyr tydfil 0mnibus — to the person on the street, with an attentiveness that made you feel you were valued, you were understood. born, perhaps, of her experience as a mother, grandmother and great grandmother as much as queen, this kind of skill is learned over the decades, by interacting with life in all its joys and sorrows. when matched with the dignity of her office, it is lifted to a higher level still. a christian word for this is grace. the queen shaped her role within a constitutional monarchy with its boundaries and responsibilities. her ability to influence, to utilise soft power, no less significant, no less authoritative, illustrates the wise and careful thought she brought to her role. parhaodd yr arweinyddiaeth hon ar draws cyfnod o newid aruthrol — diwylliannol, gwleidyddol a thechnolegol — ond i ni, chynigiodd sail i hyder drwy ganolbwyntio ar bethau a barhaodd. roedd ei chysondeb mewn cyfnod o her genedlaethol yn rhoi sicrwydd. nid oedd hyn erioed yn fwy felly na phan ddarlledodd neges i'r genedl yn ystod y pandemig. but we also saw a monarch who could surprise and delight us. we will never look at a jar of marmalade in the same way again, nor watch mr bond without remembering 2012 and that extraordinary leap into the void. her late majesty was also a towering figure on the world stage, embodying a stability and continuity but perhaps more than that, values — values which are shared across nations and cultures. she received countless heads of state as well as innumerable prime ministers. and it was her abiding trustworthiness as well as her hospitality which kindled friendship and confidence. in her role as head of the commonwealth she presided over a growing fellowship of nations and she embraced our diverse histories, cultures and languages, delighting in the sheer variety of this unique assembly. and at times when countries threatened to walk threatened to forsake each other, she displayed the skilful use of that soft power which i mentioned earlier, that way of exercising power that has reach and depth. in wales that skill was never more evident than when she visited aberfan in 1966. that community finding her presence deeply consoling and her majesty would return four more times to that community. in one of our bible readings we heard of solomon's request for the gift of wisdom at a time of significant change and transition: solomon following david as king. as wales gains an even stronger sense of nationhood and our place within the world, we should still remember that shared traditions count. on st david's day in 2006, the queen marked a new chapter in the life of our country when she opened our senedd. mae ein gwreiddiau fel pobl yn ddwfn, mae ein diwylliant a'n iaith, ein straeon a'n chwedlau yn ein gosod mewn treftadaeth unigryw ond hefyd yn ein harwain ymlaen at ddyfodol ag addewid a photensial. mae arnom angen y gras a'r doethineb a ddangoswyd gan y frenhines wrth inni gydweithio i adeiladu cymdeithas lewyrchus a thosturiol. finally, many of us will recall with gladness her deep and committed christian faith which shaped her sense of duty and public service from as early as 1947 when she pledged her life to the service of god and the people. in celebrating her 90th birthday she reaffirmed the importance of faith saying: "i have and remain very grateful to god for his steadfast love. i have indeed seen his faithfulness." hers was a personal faith: she spoke ofjesus christ and her relationship with him as well as his teachings and the way that his life, death and resurrection opened the possibility for new life, for restored relationships and a commitment to a kingdom not of this world. and so i end with her own words, as she reflected on the meaning of christmas for what turned out to be the last time. having lost her beloved husband and yet found consolation in the love and support shown to her from across the world she said: "it is this simplicity of the christmas story that makes it so universally appealing, simple happenings that formed the starting point of the life ofjesus — a man whose teachings have been handed down from generation to generation and have been the bedrock of my faith. his birth marked a new beginning. as the carol says: �*the hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight.”' we thank god for this faith and this life, so full of grace and wisdom. amen. # god is love: let heav�*n adore him # god is love: let earth rejoice # let creation sing before him, and exalt him with one voice # he who laid the earth's foundation, he who spread # the heav�*ns above # he who breathes through all creation # he is love, eternal love # god is love: and he enfoldeth all the world in one embrace # with unfailing grasp he holdeth every child of every race # and when human hearts are breaking under sorrow�*s iron rod # then they find that selfsame aching deep within the heart of god # god is love, and, though with blindness sin # afflicts our human hearts # god's eternal loving—kindness # holding, guiding, grace imparts # sin and death and hell shall never o'er us final triumph gain # god is love, so love for ever o'er the universe must reign. # the apostle paul, writing to the christians in philippi, encouraged them with these words: "have no anxiety; but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to god. and the peace of god which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and minds in christjesus. let us, seeking that peace, pray to the lord. lord god, we give thanks for the life and reign of your servant, our most gracious sovereign, queen elizabeth. anointed by you to be both sovereign and servant of others, she governed and graced the life of wales with love, dignity and courage, rooted in a living faith in you as her guide and strength. grant to her the peace and life promised to your faithful servants. lord of life and promise. lord, give us your peace. we hold before you, our most gracious king charles iii. may your wisdom inform him, your illumination guide his heart and your truth inspire his words and actions. may he serve in righteousness and truth, doing justice. rabbana, grant us peace. lord of the call to serve. lord, give us your peace. yr ydym yn cydnabod cyflwr drylliedig

victims of natural disasters. may their needs be seen, may their cries be heard and, in the recognition and answering of their needs, may they find strength and peace, and a sure knowledge of the love which you have for them. lord of healing and wholeness. lord, give us your peace. we pray for ourselves and the lives we live day by day. give us a deep knowledge of that peace which is your gift and, too often, beyond human understanding. by thought, word and deed may we be your instruments for that peace in our time and in your world. lord of hope of truth. lord, give us your peace. heavenly father, your son, jesus christ, has promised that, when we meet in his name and pray according to his mind, he will be among us and will hear our prayer. in your love and mercy, fulfil our prayers, that all for whom we have prayed will know your peace in heart and mind and being. we pray through christ our lord. amen. # guide me, 0 thou great redeemer # pilgrim through this barren land # i am

remember before you this day your servant queen elizabeth, rendering thanks for the gift of her friendship and for her life of service and devotion and we pray for our king and all of the royal family. # mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi # gwlad beirdd a chantorion enwogion o fri # ei gwrol ryfelwyr # gwladgarwyr tra mad # dros ryddid collasant eu gwaed # gwlad, gwlad # pleidol wyf i'm

# long to reign over us # god save the king.# that concludes the service of prayer and reflection for the life of her majesty queen elizabeth ii. poignant, uplifting, even humorous at times, a celebration of a long life well lived and well loved. for all of those here, and undeniable excitement at getting to see and even to meet the new monarch and the queen consort. sounds very familiar hymns, thy great redeemer, message of a pilgrimage through life, bringing us safely to heaven. a poignant and very popular choice. the royal couple now making their way to the visitors' book which they will sign. way to the visitors' book which they willsign. plenty way to the visitors' book which they will sign. plenty of royal significance here. signed by prince william in 1991 on st david's day when he was just eight years old, his first official royal engagement. 0ne his first official royal engagement. one of those nonverbal insights into william, he signed the book with his left hand. the pain clearly worked which is a relief —— the pen clearly worked which is a relief. warm words from the king for the bishop of llandaff. so too for andrewjohn, archbishop of wales. they will remember this day. a nod to the modern face of the monarchy with his stories of the queen, having sandwiches with paddington bear, jumping out of a helicopter before the olympics with james bond. laughter again. before the olympics with james bond. laughteragain. i before the olympics with james bond. laughter again. i think he will tell the story many times about how he managed to make the king chuckle at the marmalade reference in the reading. and this is a lovely moment coming up. the little girl who you can see is young kira at the sunday school, she will present the queen consort with the posy. she was born in wales to american parents, that is her mum. she has onlyjust become a british citizen and she received her british citizen and she received her british passport on the morning of the queen's death. she was really excited yesterday and this morning too. favourite shoes and dress on for the occasion, apparently. what a moment for that little girl as the king and queen consort come out into the sunshine after rousing renditions of the national anthems, so from one archbishop of wales to one former archbishop of wales, barry morgan, what did you make of the service? i barry morgan, what did you make of the service?— the service? i thought the service was absolutely _ the service? i thought the service was absolutely splendid. - the service? i thought the service was absolutely splendid. it i the service? i thought the service i was absolutely splendid. it covered all the bases. the three hymns, i think, where well chosen. 0ne all the bases. the three hymns, i think, where well chosen. one by a nonconformist minister who won a prize for his hymn singing and the queen spoke about her personal relationship tojesus queen spoke about her personal relationship to jesus and queen spoke about her personal relationship tojesus and that hymn reflects that. the other hymn, godet is love, written by previous bishop of land off, he was a monk, a community of the resurrection, and that hymn is lovely, god is love, human hearts are breaking and they find that selfsame aching deeper than the heart of god, in other words when we are going through desperate times ourselves we are assured through jesus desperate times ourselves we are assured throuthesus christ desperate times ourselves we are assured through jesus christ that god is their too and the last verse about sin and death and hell shall never all the universe reign but love will have the last word, again reflected in the queen's faith and guide me like great redeemer sang both in english and in welsh. yes and some with _ both in english and in welsh. yes and some with a lot of gusto. emily, the archbishop of wales court quite a contemporary outlook, gareth alluded to it, talking about how

time. . the mood has changed quite a bit, hasn't it, simon, during the past week? of course, initially it was sad, sombre, a lot of reflection, but the last couple of days around the uk, actually,

serving prince of wales. let's take a look at charles' long established relationship with wales. the tradition of the monarch's eldest son becoming prince of wales dates back to the 14th century. and charles held that title for longer than any other prince of wales in history. what an ovation for prince charles. it was his first public visit to the principality since he was given the title prince of wales. prince charles was just nine years old in 1958, and at school when the news went public. we were all watching television and i remember being acutely embarrassed when it was announced, for a little boy of nine, it was rather bewildering. the official investiture was to take place 11 years later. as part of the ceremony would be in welsh, prince charles was enrolled at aberystwyth university to learn the basics of the language. it's quite a heavy syllabus, he will have his plate quite full. tutor and well known republican teddy millward was charged with teaching the young prince. he was quite easy to get on with, i must say. he learned quite quickly and quite well. 1969, the year of the investiture was a time of rising welsh nationalism, and there were fierce protests across the country. but for many in wales it was a thrilling occasion and the anticipation reached fever pitch. hello and good evening from caernarfon. you can just about cut the atmosphere with a knife as the excitement builds up to the climax which will be reached here at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon. it was the biggest royal event since the coronation. i, charles, prince of wales, do become your liege man of life and limb. millions around the world watched as the queen formally presented her son to the welsh people. for me, it is a way of officially dedicating one's life, or part of one's life, to wales. in the half—century which has followed, this dedication has developed into a very personal connection. as well as championing existing ventures, he's also inspired new projects, including the restoration of gwrych castle in north wales. i used to pass gwrych castle every day to and from school, so i saw it fall into dereliction. i was shocked by the level of disrepair and vandalism. so in a moment of desperation i wrote to the prince of wales and he wrote back wanting me to try and save the castle for the nation. i ended up meeting the prince about a year or so after the first letter. that meeting led mark to set up a trust to rescue the castle. it's all come from that initial passion that he had for history and architecture. the prince's strong views on architecture were well known. when he bought a home in wales in 2007, llwynywermod was restored in a way which would reduce its environmental impact with a focus on traditional welsh materials. emlyn morgan is one of his neighbours. you know, he's one of us. when i greet him now i always greet him, "welcome home." and i think that's very important. he has been a powerful advocate forfarming, helping wales's beleaguered rural communities through his charities. and a long—time patron of welsh arts, charles also revived the role of royal harpist for the first time since the 18705. the prince specifically asked if it could be for a young welsh harpist, so it was his way of giving some support to a young musician coming out of wales. it's clear his majesty holds in deep affection the country he has served for so long. doesn't matter if you are young, old, black, orwhite, he's got time for everybody, and people like that in this part of the world. the royal couple make their way to the senedd. different perspectives now on the new king. i am joined by professor sir deian hopkin and former labour and government minister, kim howells. aberystwyth formed part of that piece, you

we were delighted the university was being recognised in this way. there was a lot of excitement. i cannot recollect any protest but maybe saw —— someone saw something i didn't. he became a student, he mixed with the other students. there were no lectures, it was the summer term. therefore, he had his tutor. we in the department did not teach him. he had his own tutor and he was taught by teddy who you saw in the film to speak welsh. it was a very light visit in the sense there was no security guards around, you could not see police wandering around, and they were a lot of well—wishers every day hoping to see him. but generally speaking, it was quite low—key until then came the investitu re. low-key until then came the investiture.— low-key until then came the investiture. , ' ., .,

laughter in your dealings, you have met the king as well, how did you find him? i have to say, we saw earlier how in fact scheduling his visits is a bit of a problem because he does want to break ranks and meet people. we had a very clear example of that in the centenary when he came to the welsh memorial and of course it was the centenary of a death as well and it was moving and he spoke and in welsh as well, lovely moment. when the time came for him to leave, do you think he would? he kept on mixing with the audience, and i could see the security guards tearing out their hair, saying, please, move along. he wanted to talk to people. i suspect, had they said, do you want to stay on? he would have said yes. but he had to move onto the big eventin yes. but he had to move onto the big event in the evening. that is the kind of tactile, engaging with people, people have now seen it. we saw at the very first day. that has a ways been the case. i think that approachability will probably serve him very well. whatever people might say about republicanism, monarchy, although i am very surprised kim has become a royalist, but that is another story... the truth is we now recognise there is a new relationship to be built with wales. it is interesting. what we saw today in front of, coming out of the cathedral, nothing new, in terms of the relationship with the public. it has been there for a while. now moving into a different phase of the visit today. on his way to the senedd. just to talk to you about the relationship with politics. you were not involved in devolved politics, you are an mp at westminster, but do you think people have talked about the new relationship as the king, a lot of us know what his views are in his time at the prince of wales, to what extent will he have to change things? could it pose problems? it will be a problem because he is very much _ will be a problem because he is very much involved in... he has a great sense _ much

thank you. as the king continues to cardiff bay and the senedd, we canjoinjason mohammad who is there for us. good afternoon, prynhawn da, welcome to cardiff bay, lots of people gathered outside the senedd and now the beating heart of political democracy here in a very modern wales and it was back in 1999, when her majesty the queen accompanied by the duke of edinburgh and the prince of wales officially opened the very first session of the newly created national assembly for wales, as i say, now known as seluk cymru and today, his majesty the king and queen consort camilla will be here to receive a motion of condolence in the building behind me —— now known as senedd cymru. there will be mark drakeford, alanjones and the senedd members who are gathering inside the building as we speak ahead of the ceremony. to discuss what's going to happen this afternoon is professor laura mcallister from cardiff university. good afternoon to you. this building is a magnificent symbol of a very modern wales that the king is about to say. i modern wales that the king is about to sa . ~ , �* , modern wales that the king is about to sa . ~' , �* , ., to say. i think it is, it's a fantastic _ to

emblem of how much to say. i think it is, it's a _ fantastic emblem of how much wales has changed over the past 23 years since we've had devolution here. this fantastic building designed by lord richard rogers is many ways is meant to encapsulate all that is new about the welsh democracy, transparent building using natural light, a consensually designed debating chamber but in many respects the building itself shows how different wales is now of course to the time when her majesty the queen acceded to the throne back in the 19505, when wales had no effective democracy of its own. find. effective democracy of its own. and, laura, a effective democracy of its own. and, laura. a very — effective democracy of its own. and, laura, a very welsh _ effective democracy of its own. and,

designed by lord - proud of. i think they are, yes, a| building designed by lord richard rogers but built entirely out of welsh materials, wood, steel, slate, and anything about the building is meant to represent the new, modern wales. the people of wales are clearly proud of this place, it's used for celebrations and on days like today less about celebration and more about respect and gratitude to the queen and a recognition of the new king was like you and i were here in 2006, when the senedd was opened by her majesty, and i remember we had a studio for bbc wales today, i was doing the evening news, i think you are here too and a studio on the water and the atmosphere here is quite similar, because what you've got here is a very respectful crowd, lots of schools have travelled over from penarth, just across the water, because they wanted to be part of this historic occasion. i think so, the mood is very sombre, clearly, a great deal of sadness after the death of the queen, but also people wanting to be part of an historic moment and king charles' first visit to wales as part of his tour, of course, around all the nations of the united kingdom, and i think it is significant that wales features so prominently on that tour because for king charles and indeed for queen elizabeth, their recognition of devolution and the new political apparatus of wales has been constant since devolution began and the national assembly was established backin national assembly was established back in 1999, always present at every official opening and indeed as you say, jason, at the opening of this magnificent building too back in 2006. r , in 2006. absolutely, right, the ro al in 2006. absolutely, right, the royal cars _ in 2006. absolutely, right, the royal cars are _ in 2006.

as the motorcade with the royal party comes around the corner, approaching the senedd. to signify the arrival of his majesty the king. in fact we can go now to sian lloyd, who will be leading us through proceedings in the senedd today. yes, a huge... yes, a huge crowd gathered here in front of the senedd, waiting for the cars to arrive. they are just around the corner. cheering proceeding along the side of the senedd building. cheering many people have their cameras up, waiting to take a photograph, as the horses arrive. cheering a cheer going up from the crowd, a huge cheer. a5 a cheer going up from the crowd, a huge cheer. as the car pulls up in front of the building. and we can see the royal party now being met from their car by the lord lieutenant of south glamorgan, morfudd meredith, and a huge cheer from the crowd is there. they will be heading up the steps of the senedd building, past members of the armed forces leading and lining the way, and representatives of the navy, raf and army, here today. the sun really beaming down on those crowds. 0n the sun really beaming down on those crowds. on this very modern building, which has become part of the landscape of cardiff bay. they wave their from the king. the landscape of cardiff bay. they wave theirfrom the king. —— and a wave theirfrom the king. —— and a wave there, from the king. reaching the top of the steps. and, waiting there to greet them, we can see llywydd, the presiding officer, alanjones, shaking hands, and mark drakeford, the first minister of wales. they are officially welcoming their majesties. fanfare a trumpet fanfare there to herald his majesty the king's arrival into the neuadd, that main entrance we can see the king talking to adam price, leader of plaid cymru. he represents carmarthen east and the senedd and waiting in line to be presented are the leaders of the political parties, represented here in the senedd. this is a very light and airy part of the building. and now meeting jane dodds, the leader of the welsh liberal democrats. senedd regional memberfor mid and west liberal democrats. senedd regional member for mid and west wales. and also being formally presented, the deputy presiding officer, david rees. harp plays and all along beautiful music, accompanying them, from the harp. this area surrounded by glass and it is a fantastic view out to cardiff bay and there the king dates manon antoniazzi, the chief executive and clerk of the senedd —— meets manon antoniazzi. she was a senior private secretary in the office of the prince of wales. now she has responsibility for running the machinery of the senedd, staffing and the property. the llywydd leading the way. and the first minister escorting the king and queen consort downstairs to the court. and there we see the harp being played beautifully by clare jones, former royal harpist. she was harpist to the prince of wales from 2007, until 2011, and now waiting for them in the court, two people who will play a key role in the more ceremonial elements of this motion of condolence. the wales herald of arms extraordinary, thomas lloyd, who we see there, is actually an expert on the historic buildings of wales. he has been wales herald since 2010 and also in front of him we see is a mace bearer, shahzad khan. they will be approaching the siambr, the main debating chamber of the senedd. leading the procession there, the mace bearer, shahzad khan, actually he is a member of the security team here at the senedd. of course the historic function of a mace bearer was to protect the monarch by beating off potential attackers, so quite a fitting role that he is playing here today. you can see the queen consort walking alongside the first minister, mark drakeford. a5 first minister, mark drakeford. as they make their way through the court. and now they enter the siambr. 60 senedd members already waiting in here for them. it is the only completely round debating chamber in any of the parliaments of the uk. the mace bearer now making his way to place the mace in its scones. —— sconce. and the royal party waiting there. the macy's made of gold, silver and brass. your majestys, senedd, and guests. we welcome your majesty i5 we welcome your majesty is today and offer our sincere condolences on the death of your mother, the queen. many have been saddened and shaken by their loss and hold you and your family in their hearts and prayers at this time. as we meet here today to offer our motion of condolence it's poignant for us to think that the queen's final visit to wales was merely 11 months ago at the official opening of our six senedd. the queen was on fine form that day. many members shared their anecdotes of that visit when we met to pay tribute to the queen and discussed our motion of condolence in the senedd on sunday and as she left us that day, 11 months ago, i hope that her majesty carried with her the beaming smile of the last person she met that day in wales, the young actor from verna and lynette lee, who smiled broadly as she handed the queen a posy. the stories and tributes paid by members to the queen when we convened on sunday were warm and witty. a5 queen when we convened on sunday were warm and witty. as you may imagine, there were many mentions of corgis, her constant lifelong welsh companions. corgi, a welsh word, literally small dog, and of course the members here representing pembrokeshire were particularly keen to champion her preference for the pembrokeshire corgi and the member for ceredigion me, was silent and ever so slightlyjealous of the queen's choice of the pembrokeshire corgi over the cardiganshire corgi. she speaks in welsh the queen was with us in 1999 for the opening of our first fledgling assembly. she shared ourjourney of devolution. she partook in each of our six openings commenting each time in the development of our powers and becoming a national parliament, senedd cymru. the queen respected this parliament because she respected the democratic choices of the people of wales, she saw us come of age and was interested in our next steps. from the first senedd of the 15th century, to the one in which we are gathered today, our story is old but our democracy is young and ambitious. it is my sincere hope that the modern relationship between this country, this senedd and the royal family will be rooted in respect and mutual understanding. she speaks in welsh a5 as we remember today the queen's enduring commitment to our parliament, we also look forward to the future association with the senedd and our work on behalf of the people of wales. i now invite the first minister to present the motion of condolence to his majesty the king. he speaks in welsh personal reflections, as you said, llywydd, often focusing on the queen's many visits to the senedd, encounters and conversations with members here. historical reflections focusing on the many changes which have taken place in wales over the last 70 years and constitutional reflections too, emphasising the commitment showed by the queen to this democratic institution and its place in a devolved united kingdom. many of the contributions were sombre, they reflected a sense of grief, of loss, and of national significance. butjust as many were human stories, of a life devoted to service and to duty, but interviewed by the keen sense of interest the queen always showed in the people she met and in all those things which in our case make wales what it is in the 215t —— but embued. we know because we saw it here in this chamber less than a year ago. today there is a sense of transition in wales. this morning we came together in a service of reflection at llandaff cathedral to look back over a reign unrivalled in its length and reach. latertoday, people in a reign unrivalled in its length and reach. later today, people in wales will have the chance to meet the new king at cardiff castle for the first time. the start of a new era. he speaks in welsh. he speaks in welsh iam i am deeply grateful for the addresses of condolence which so movingly paid tribute to our late sovereign, my beloved mother, the queen.

brings our proceedings to a close for today. harp plays the wales herald leading the procession from the siambr, the motion of condolence having been made and responded to by his majesty the king in welsh as well as english. and we heard from the king, he said that wales could not have been closer to the heart of the queen. and now alongside the llywydd, his majesty the king is meeting 12 representatives of wales's youth parliament, senedd ieuenctid cymru. they are made up of elected representatives of young people aged from 11 up to 18 from right across wales. some lovely smiles there. they debate and discuss issues of importance to young people. and it is an opportunity for them to work with those in power to reflect the views of their generation, their needs, as well as their achievements. interestingly, they now meet in the building behind the senedd, ty hywel, where assembly members meet and conduct sessions before the assembly building was officially openedin assembly building was officially opened in 2006. his majesty the king, of course, has a long association with youth organisations. now taking the opportunity to have a good chat with these members of the welsh youth parliament. among the group today we know iestyn jones parliament. among the group today we know iestynjones i5 parliament. among the group today we know iestynjones is being presented from carmarthen. i am sure this is going to be an occasion that really will stay with these young people, as they journey through will stay with these young people, as theyjourney through their lives. also today, leola being presented. the king really taking time to chat to these members of the welsh youth parliament and the queen consort, camilla. this taking place just after that reading of the motion of condolence. a ceremonial role. this now really just a chance to chat, as we have seen the king doing already this morning in llandaff as he met the crowds. harp plays the king seeming to enjoy, and again, big smiles that we can see. the first minister mark drakeford there also having a chat with these members of the welsh youth parliament. and there, a partner elected member. one of the 12 young people being presented today. other members of the welsh youth parliament also here today, they've been able to follow proceedings. the other members up in the public gallery, where they've been able to watch enfield park of this significant occasion —— where they've been able to watch, and feel part of, this significant occasion. it was in 2014 that the senedd signed up for the youth engagement charter aware young people's opinions were listened to, acted upon, and respected. and now the royal party, with the senedd llywydd, moving through the building. jason mohammad macro so the motion of condolence made, a ceremony a ceremony full of tradition despite the very modern setting. professor laura mcallister from cardiff university alongside me. your thoughts?— from cardiff

there was a very nice blend of the old and the newcomer with the pageantry and heraldry of the entrance but then some more informal anecdotes communicated by the llywydd of the speaker of the senedd, and i think some nice representation of the next generation as well. we saw the new king meet with some members of the senedd ieuenctid cymru, the future generation of let's hope future politicians in wales and i'm sure they communicated their wishes for they communicated their wishes for the future of wales to the new king, so i think overall it was a powerful representation of wales as a distinctive nation with an identity of its own, particularly in the use of its own, particularly in the use of both of our official languages, of both of our official languages, of course, and the king himself, who learnt welsh whilst he was studying at aberystwyth, used some of that welsh in the siambr, the debating chamber, and it reflects in many ways what we are about as a modern nation in wales.— nation in wales. indeed, there is one we word _ nation in wales. indeed, there is one we word we _ nation in wales. indeed, there is one we word we use _ nation in wales. indeed, there is one we word we use in _ nation in wales. indeed, there is one we word we use in the i nation in wales. indeed, there is| one we word we use in the welsh language which means the importance, very important, a very powerful hearing the new king using the welsh language board. i hearing the new king using the welsh language lhoard-— language board. i think so, yes, particularly _ language board. i think so, yes, particularly for — language board. i think so, yes, particularly for viewers _ language board. i think so, yes, particularly for viewers who i language board. i think so, yes,

same status here in wales by law and of course this institution, the senedd, operates entirely bilingually with the same status for welsh has four english and i think hearing the king use welsh in the siambr is hugely significant because it's such an important part of our national life. he is very interested in the welsh language, having spoken to him when he formally opened the bbc to us at the new central square buildings at bbc cymru wales, he asked me about my learning of welsh and you get the feeling he is fascinated by the language. i feeling he is fascinated by the lan . ua . e. ~

so and it will be interesting to see how the new i interesting to see how the new prince of wales, prince william, takes that forward, of course, somebody who has very close association with wales throughout his life and his father suddenly embraced the welsh language board must some would say it's not easy language to learn but in fairness to the king he spoke clearly and well in welsh and that reflects well i think on his engagement with everything that makes wales a distinctive nation. find everything that makes wales a distinctive nation.— everything that makes wales a distinctive nation. and here we can see his majesty — distinctive nation. and here we can see his majesty now— distinctive nation. and here we can see his majesty now chatting - distinctive nation. and here we

politics of each of the nations of the united kingdom and in many respects it's that continuity that has a real contribution to protecting the union, perhaps the monarch's is more respectful of that than some politicians, dare i say, because there is a different politics in scotland, wales, northern ireland than in england and the king will be mindful of that and will be respectful of that in terms of how he operates. you will be respectful of that in terms of how he operates.— of how he operates. you are absolutely — of how he operates. you are absolutely right, _ of how he operates. you

wales and it's worth describing this to our viewers across the uk and around the world of how wales is now politically compared to when her majesty the queen opened the senedd building in 2006. i queen opened the senedd building in 2006. “ queen opened the senedd building in 2006. 4' , ., ., 2006. i think there is no real comparison- _ 2006. i think there is no real comparison. if _ 2006. i

few powers. it merely had powers over the secondary legislation. now it's a fully fledged parliament with primary lawmaking powers. it controls aspects of taxation and scrutinises the welsh government, so the status of the senedd is really entrenched in welsh public life now and i'm sure the king will be respectful and mindful of that because this institution is very much part of the fabric of the new wales. �* ~' ., much part of the fabric of the new wales. �* ~ ., ., wales. one thing i'd like to mention as well, wales. one thing i'd like to mention as well. laura. _ wales. one

course, and it was meant to bring the communities and the people of wales together. we have a circular debating chamber, the only one of its kind in the united kingdom, which was meant to create a less confrontational environment, and i think that notion of equality and i think that notion of equality and inclusivity runs through the fabric of everything that we are trying to instill in our welsh democracy. figs trying to instill in our welsh democracy-— trying to instill in our welsh democracy. trying to instill in our welsh democra . r , democracy. as you can see, the king there

everything that's touches the lives of the most people are scrutinised here in the senedd under significant change, i move away from the centralised westminster sense to a devolved system and that's

prince of wales, prince william. prince william is a patron of many organisations in wales including the welsh rugby union and i think that apprenticeship is very important for his engagement now with the next phase of this work. i think it's fair to say too, jason, the announcement of prince william as prince of wales wasn't met with complete acceptance by the people of wales. some people feel that that was inappropriate in terms of timing. but nevertheless i think we wait to see now whether prince william follows in the same footsteps as his father did in that role. , r, , footsteps as his

laura? iia: prince of wales title think it was in reality, laura? i““ia: prince of wales title itself has no official constitutional status but i think it was fairly clear that this would be bestowed on prince william. i think the timing might have surprised a few people, as it was done very quickly, of course, but i think if you look at prince william's own engagement with wales, it gives you a fairly strong steer that this was going to happen. he was based in and is more with his wife and small child when serving with the welsh raf and has been involved in most institutions, not as long an apprenticeship as his father had in that role but let's see now what happens next. in fact durin: see now what happens next. in fact during that — see now what happens next. in fact during that motion

public debate. those debates will happen, won't they, laura, in the forthcoming days? i think they will, we are in a period of mourning and we must be respectful and that's what the people of wales would want but i think the debate about the monarchy andindeed think the debate about the monarchy and indeed about the title prince of wales will happen and i think it's right that it happens because we are a mature democracy now. we want people's voices to be heard. there will be different opinions on this, of course, and they should be heard, but i think that happens after this period of respect

democracy, showing that we have two official languages here, some of the culture and music of wales and the status of this institution i think it's important notjust within wales but for the rest of the united kingdom, because sometimes we can be seen as the invisible part of the united kingdom and today has been about showing why and how wales is different. find about showing why and how wales

majesty the queen with prince philip and prince charles attend and looking at documents that have since emerged, it was against some of the advice they were given because the model of devolution we had in 1999 was not as strong as the model in scotland. the fact her majesty chose to attend was a very important decision on her part as well because it showed the legitimacy of every part of the uk and particularly the legitimacy of a very fledgling institution which of course has changed out of all recognition in the last 20 years. would you say that has grown in the past five years laura? 25er

was a continuum offered. when he talked about the prince of wales, for example, he did not say, edward the first is prince of wales, he went back earlier, he talks of the princess of wales before the

on that point, i would like to thank you, sir deian hopkin, kim howells, both of your contributions this afternoon, thank you very much indeed. now the next stop for the royal party is cardiff castle, originally a roman fort built and famously extended by one of the wealthiest men in the world at the time, coal baron 3rd marquess of bute who engaged the architect william burgess to design his ideal castle. at the castle for us this afternoon, my colleaguejennifer jones. afternoon, my colleague jennifer jones. , , , , , jones. yes, this castle is steeped in 2000 years — jones. yes, this castle is

in the heart of the welsh capital will honour and welcome the new monarch. there will be echoes of queen elizabeth ii's first visit to cardiff castle shortly after her coronation in 1953. today feels like just such a historic day. it all started relatively noisily here at cardiff castle this morning with a royal gun salute fired by reservists from 104 regiment royal artillery. following that, they opened the castle gates and visitors and well—wishers flooded in, all eager to welcome the royal party. we spoke to welcome the royal party. we spoke to those at the front of the queue who arrived at 4:45am this morning. slightly colder than they were expecting but they stuck it out to be the first in through the gates and into the castle grounds. i don't know if you can see behind me, the regimental band of the royal welsh entertaining the crowds for the last hour. there will be a god of owner when they arrive made up of young cadets —— a guard of honour. following that very moving service at llandaff cathedral and the more formal events at the senedd, it is expected the proceedings here will be a little bit more relaxed and personal. the king will hold a private audience with the first minister mark drakeford and the llywydd presiding officer elinjones and that will be followed by a reception where the king and queen consort will meet representatives from local charities, from the prince of wales's charities and the queen's patronage us and they will meet faith leaders of all faiths from across wales. a slightly more informal relaxed feel at the castle. the royal party will make its way up st mary street, thousands of well—wishers lining the streets. we cannot see them yet, obviously, but we will keep an eye out and let you know as soon as they get here. thank ou. a

in their roles as the prince of wales. we met some time ago at the royal shakespeare company. i was a member of the company and prince charles as was was president, still is, i think, i'm not sure how that changes, of the company, and the play was henry iv part one, which takes on the story of the prince of wales and how his wayward life is changed by becoming king, and so there was some sense of, i don't know, prophecy, but i'm not really sure, but he definitely said to me on occasion, how did he know, how did shakespeare know how this would feel? there was insight that he wasn't really prepared for and how he loved that. and from that we, over the years, have spent some wonderful times discussing poetry, performance, and he has asked me to be part of that and very much with the story of, it was the 100th birthday of the dylan thomas and i was doing under milk wood on a nationwide tour and i was invited tojoin him because he had chosen fernhill, a wonderful poem by dermot —— by dylan thomas, to commemorate this wonderful occasion, but the point was, he was going to be the one recording it, not me, so i've done many times where i'd go along to venues sing for my supper, and on this occasion i had to come to clarence house and come in through the back, through the warm offices, then into the cold house is famously he doesn't like the central heating and the windows open, and i was deeply grateful because i tend to get a bit overheated, and with that i am in a sitting room, you know, his sitting room, and i'm fully loaded with a cup of tea and cucumber sandwich and i'm very, very happy, and he has put me at my ease, he is so kind as we are watching him greeting people, his empathy, and at that moment i realised, no, i'm not going to have to perform, you are.

was twinkling. it was that wonderful humour you've heard people talking about. he was putting me at my ease. he was wonderful. he did it, isaid, that gives me at my ease. he was wonderful. he did it, i said, that gives me such on did it, i said, that gives me such joy because it's a poem that is overwrought and often done to the hilt and there he was, in his own way, it was broadcast on radio
