Tomorrow, September 8, it will be a year without Queen Elizabeth II . And for a year his eldest son has been on the throne with the name of Charles III.
Great Britain takes stock of the activity of the new sovereign, 74 years old, inevitably considered "transitional", the oldest ever crowned in the history of the country.
To remember Elisabetta, events are being prepared but without particular public events, respecting her sobriety.
Still fresh in memory is the solemn announcement with which the BBC, closely followed by the other media, was authorized by Buckingham Palace on a late summer afternoon to inform British subjects, the Commonwealth of the countries of the former empire and the world news of the death of "His Majesty", which took place in the Scottish residence of Balmoral at the age of 96 and after a record 70 reign.
In the meantime, Charles sees himself recognized as "a good king" by about 50% of the British, according to the periodic surveys by Ipsos, while only 10-12% accuse him of doing "a bad job".
