King looks in good health as he films annual Christmas message

Smiling and ruddy-cheeked, the King looks in good health as he films his annual Christmas message. For the second time in his reign Charles, 77, recorded it outside of a royal residence, this time inside the Henry VII Lady Chapel at Westminster Abbey, which was described by 16th-century historian John Leland as 'the wonder of the world'. The broadcast was filmed earlier this month after the Monarch had been given the good news by his doctors that his cancer treatment will be hugely scaled back in the new year.
