Show Notes

Queen Elizabeth II’s reign coincided with huge cultural and social shifts, so how did she respond to these changes? Following the Queen’s death, Ros Taylor is joined by Stephen Bates, former royal correspondent for The Guardian and author of Royalty Inc. Britain's Best-Known Brand to discuss changes seen in the Elizabethen era. 

 

  • “The Queen had to be persuaded to do things, and then she went along with them.” 
  • “The monarchy is very careful about its resources.”
  • “There was a huge backlash against the monarchy in the 90s, especially around them not paying tax.”
  • “The royals want to preserve the succession, so Charles will be a small c conservative king.”
