As Britons prepare for King Charles' Speech, GB News asks its members if they make time to tune in for the monarch's Christmas message.

King Charles, 76, will deliver his third festive address since taking to the throne in 2022.


Britons can watch the speech at 3pm on Christmas Day, as the annual tradition continues.

The speech, which will air on GB News, was pre-recorded at London's Fitzrovia Chapel.

The location change breaks with royal tradition by ending a 14-year stint of delivering the highly-anticipated speech at a royal residence.

King Charles recorded his speech at the former chapel of the now closed Middlesex Hospital on December 11.

The last time the Christmas Day speech was filmed outside of a royal residence was when Queen Elizabeth journeyed to the Southwark Cathedral in 2006.

King Charles posed for the Christmas speech, wearing a navy blazer, a white shirt and a blue patterned tie.

The blue and white colours may have been a nod to the NHS, following the King's year of receiving cancer treatment.

Buckingham Palace announced in February that the monarch was beginning a course of treatment for an undisclosed form of cancer.

He has received this treatment as an outpatient in a London hospital for much of this year.

Princess Kate, 42, also underwent chemotherapy for an undisclosed form of cancer.

The Princess of Wales confirmed in September that she had completed her treatment.
