In his first Christmas Day message, King Charles broke from the tradition set by his mother by delivering it standing up, while the venue had particular poignancy. "I am standing here in this exquisite Chapel of St George at Windsor Castle, so close to where my beloved mother, the late Queen, is laid to rest with my dear father. I am reminded of the deeply touching letters, cards and messages which so many of you have sent my wife and myself and I cannot thank you enough for the love and sympathy you have shown our whole family. Christmas is a particularly poignant time for all of us who have lost loved ones."
Service to others a theme of King Charles' first Christmas speech
"The humanity of people ... who so readily respond to the plight of others"
