This year's message from King Charles will reflect his green credential by including a living Christmas tree for the first time.
It was covered with “natural and sustainable decorations, including hand turned wood, dried oranges, brown glass, pine cones and paper” and it will be replanted.
There were no clues to content of Charles second Christmas address, recorded in the Palace’s Centre Room, part of the private quarters and near the balcony where he celebrated his Coronation.
Charles, 75, is said to have written the 10-minute speech without the help of his advisers.
His first Christmas speech, was from St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, where his mother is laid to rest. The King is reportedly set to knight Justin Welby Archbishop of Canterbury in the upcoming New Year Honours.
