For the first time in 70 years, the United Kingdom and the world are preparing for the coronation of a British monarch. But what do we know about the role, function and character of our new King? Join Telegraph columnist Simon Heffer as he speaks to those who can give a glimpse of Charles III: friends, former staff, and our own royal reporters and writers. The series will explore three arenas: The King and his crown; how a Prince of Wales who spoke his mind becomes a King who cannot. The King and the world; how the King takes on the role as the UK's figurehead and leading ambassador, and what he can do for the country in its international relationships and in his role as head of the Commonwealth. The King and his people; will the King bring a new style to the monarchy when it comes to relating to his people? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A taxi driver is shot dead in front of his children. A high-security room goes up in flames. Then terrorists are unmasked as spies. And behind it all, a shadowy unit of the British Army. Award-winning journalist Cara McGoogan investigates the biggest cover-up of the Northern Ireland Troubles and asks: is the British state getting away with murder? The first and second series of Bed of Lies are also available to listen to on this feed: Series 2: It was meant to be a miracle treatment, but it became a deadly poison.

Her hunt leads to other women just like her - and a web of state-spun lies. This is the untold story of one of Britain's biggest secrets. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
