As we approach King Charles<\/a>\u2018s coronation later this year, Channel 4 has announced that comedy series The Windsors is returning for a special to mark the occasion.<\/p>\n

The new episode will see the central cast all returning, with the official synopsis saying: \u201cCharles\u2019s (Harry Enfield) whole life has been building up to this moment and he wants the UK\u2019s first coronation in 70 years to be a spectacular affair with all the pomp and circumstance he deserves.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs does his Queen Consort Camilla (Haydn Gwynne), who can\u2019t wait to drape herself in diamonds and fur. Sadly, the UK is in the middle of a cost of living crisis and Wills (Hugh Skinner) thinks the coronation should reflect these more straitened times.\u201d<\/p>\n

It continues: \u201cAs for Harry (Richard Goulding) and Meghan (Kathryn Drysdale), with their Netflix series<\/a> and Harry\u2019s book<\/a> behind them, they\u2019re finally free of Windsor family issues to concentrate on their simple life in California. But can they really afford to miss Harry\u2019s father\u2019s coronation?\u201d<\/p>\n

Joe Hullait, commissioning executive for comedy at Channel 4, said: \u201cAny channel worth its salt has a landmark show with the word coronation in the title. For the BBC it was the world\u2019s first televised coronation in 1953.<\/p>\n
