In full: King Charles III's speech plus analysis

By ITV News

King Charles III has paid tribute to his "darling mama" and praised her as an "inspiration" and "example to me and all my family" in his first address to the nation.

This podcast replays the speech in full, before Tom Bradby gets instant analysis from our Royal Editor Chris Ship.

The new monarch confirmed his son the Duke of Cambridge and Cornwall would inherit his former title of the Prince of Wales.

The King, who acceded to the throne immediately on the death of his 96-year-old mother in Balmoral on Thursday, got a very warm welcome from the crowd gathered outside the royal residency for the first time earlier in the day.
