I for one hope the Queen lives for many years to come!
I think Charles' Coronation would bring back alot of Brits who feel dissociated with the Monarchy, therefore boosting the public image.and feelings toward our great institution

I'd love to see a coronation in my time, but the way ole Queenie's going, it's going to be a good few decades yet.
We have been a rebublic in the past
owiginalwabbit, ok it may very well have a few hundred years ago, and then it was only for a decade, but it didn't work for us then, who's to say it'd work for us now? No, that's not a good enough argument I know, but having a monarchy is part of our heritage (our heritage sadly is something that isn't understood because it's no longer taught) and for that reason alone it's worth keeping!
A coronation would put that spark back into a dwindling institution. And for the good of the monarchy, the Queen should abdicate.

Looking forward to a King? Yes
Looking forward to Charles as King? No
Bring on Wills- a modern day King in touch with reality!

Given the length of time Queen Victoria was on the English throne, I think it was three generation??? I remember reading something that there was no one still alive to actually advise on the coronation of King Edward and Queen Alexandra. Yes, I think it will be fascinating to actually watch it happen. The pomp and tradition of it all will be living history. It is one thing to have your personal choices to live out your own fairy tales, but I have to agree with you. It will be interesting to actually see

Did I miss something? When did the queen die? Can't say as I'm looking forward to Charles becoming king. Not particularly a royalist, but the thought of THAT woman being queen makes me sick. What a pity we cannot disband the Monarchy after the death of Elizabeth. A dignified end to an archaic tradition.

As the Queen is only 22 years older than her son she may well outlive him yet!........after all Queen Mary outlived 3 of her children.
I think Charles may one day be King, but I doubt his reign will be a long one, his Son is much more popular with the public.

Is your question designed to find out how many people want the Queen to die? That is, after all, the step before getting a King, isn't it?
