2022-05-02 Ebata: "Personally, I'd like to watch a documentary recording the Emperor's accession to the throne, even if it's 10 years later." [長年日記]

I was watching the BS World Documentary "The Coronation of Her Majesty the Queen".

This documentary chronicles the 16 months of preparation leading up to the coronation event, with comments from Queen Elizabeth II and others involved at the time.

I love these behind-the-scenes stories of events and enjoyed watching them.

My senior daughter said, "I wonder how much the queen will be paid for this".

I replied, "I don't think Her Majesty the Queen is getting paid."

Senior Daughter: "Why, in the UK, can they make these programs?"

Ebata: "Perhaps, well, in a good way or a bad way, the British imperial family is certainly 'open' to the public."

Even after the divorce, it is hard to imagine the paparazzi chasing the former Crown Princess to death in a car accident in the Japanese Imperial Family.

Ebata: "Personally, I'd like to watch a documentary recording the Emperor's accession to the throne, even if it's 10 years later."

On the other hand, the wife said.

"I don't want to watch that."

Well, I thought that the "degree of opening and closing" of the Imperial Family is not only the judgment of the Imperial Family and the Imperial Household Agency, but also our public awareness might be a major parameter.
