Elizabeth the Good

Just like Westminster Hall which, this week especially, encompasses politics, history and the monarchy, so too does this episode of Chopper’s Politics.

Historian Andrew Roberts joins Christopher Hope to talk about potential pitfalls facing Charles III, what the new monarch can learn from history, and why he's in favour of 'Elizabeth the Good' as a moniker for Queen Elizabeth II.

The Telegraph's own Charles Moore on how be thinks we're seeing the British constitution working before our eyes, and if the Royal Yacht Elizabeth could be a fitting tribute.

Plus Telegraph columnist Simon Heffer on the late monarch's audiences with their Prime Minister, and if you can trust Netflix's The Crown to tell you who the late Queen got on with best (clue: Simon thinks not...).
