Can King Charles fix the special relationship?

This episode was recorded before the events at the White House Correspondents’ Association on Saturday.


King Charles arrives in America today for a state visit to mark the country’s 250th birthday. But with US-UK relations at a low over Iran - and the Epstein scandal still looming large - the stakes are high. Last week Trump said the monarch could help repair the special relationship so will soft power bring the allies back together?
