I’m honoured to say that I’ll be at Westminster Abbey for the day. You’ll see the emotional arrival of the coffin but also the faces of the royal family. The focus is on the King, obviously, and then this extraordinary arrival of all the dignitaries from around the world. I’ll have something to say about each of them: their last comment about the Q...
Does it sound terrible to say that I’ve been so busy I haven’t had time to think about that? I feel like I’ve followed the Queen, as I’ve been in Balmoral, Edinburgh, Buckingham Palace and then Westminster Abbey. It’s one of the biggest things you’ll ever do in your life, so I feel a great weight of responsibility to get it right for the people at ...
It’s so extraordinary. The scale of the funeral will be beyond what we’ve seen in this country. You watch the footage of people throwing flowers at Princess Di’s funeral… but there’s a quietness to the grief here in this country. People have their own memories of the Queen or their own family members; it’s triggering all sorts of grief for people. ...
I think it was when I was in Ukraine. I got upset on day 22 of the war in Mariupol, when there was a baby wrapped in a sheet who died aged 23 days old. The baby was born in peace and died in war, and I was beginning to lose it. It was after that I got asked to do the funeral – I think because I have an emotional response to news. You need empathy t...
I did. It was when the plane was taking off from Scotland, and Alastair Bruce – our royal commentator – was saying, ‘All she wanted to do was make her father proud’. So he started me off. And then I spoke to Louise Tait, the Queen’s press secretary, who was in floods of tears. I stood there thinking, ‘I can’t look at the screen’. And then I asked L...
We have the royal brief book, which we’ve all been carrying around for a while now. I even took it to Ukraine. It’s so useful but also gets superseded quite quickly. You get palace briefing notes about the events, but they drop quite late, so I’ve ended up screen-shotting them and then reading them on air, which is quite stressful. But you get the ...
Well, we know that King Charles is emotional. You can see that with him getting flustered about his pens. We do hostile-environment training where we learn about stress and how tiny things tip you over the edge. If you watch him at Hillsborough Castle and at the Accession Council, the pen is his moment when he’s tipping over the edge due to stress ...
I did the evening of Prince Philip’s funeral. Dermot Murnaghan, who will be with us for the committal service at St George’s Chapel in Windsor, will take over in the afternoon from me, whereas I picked up from him in the evening of Prince Philip’s funeral. Prince Philip’s was during Covid, so it was the royal family all behind Windsor. So there is ...
I met her at the 150th anniversary of the Journalists’ Charity. She looked at me and held my gaze so I thought, ‘I think you might watch me on television in the evening!’ Then I interviewed the Lord-Lieutenant of Perth and Kinross in Scotland, and he said, ‘She looks at you with these bright blue eyes and she holds your gaze’. I’m like, ‘Oh, she ma...
Not much! On the night the Queen died, I worked until 2.10am and then got into my pyjamas and set the alarm for 2.30am because I was on at 5am! I then did nine hours on air straight through with no sleep at all. You have to think about every word and, luckily, we’re supposed to speak quite slowly so it allows you to think about your words carefully...
