TL;DR Summary

King Charles III's coronation will take place on May 6th at Westminster Abbey in London, and will be broadcasted on various platforms, including the BBC's hi-definition iPlayer streaming service. Unlike his mother's coronation in 1953, the event will be projected around the world, thanks to digital technology. The British royal family has faced criticism from anti-royalists who claim that the BBC misrepresents the monarchy and public opinion. The monarchy has transformed from a "magical monarchy to a public service monarchy," and is judged by whether it contributes to society.
