royal correspondent daniela relph is in copenhagen and talked me through what was happening. well, there we have it, the new face of the danish monarchy out on the balcony there of christiansborg palacen, of course, we have to remember that there is also a new heir to the throne. we've seen some pictures there of the young crown prince christian, as he now is, just 18 years old. he is still at school, in his final year at school, expected to go to university next year and into military training. but he takes on a significant role in public life now, here in denmark. but this is the new face of the danish monarchy. i have to say, looking at the king frederik and queen mary there, they both seen quite taken aback by the size of the crowd and the response to them here in denmark. we saw the king wiping away a tear from his eyes, as he first came out on that balcony for the proclamation and saw the number of people, the response to him, the number of danish flags being waved, as the royal couple take in this moment in history, as this king and queen, both in their 50s, become the new face of the royal family here in denmark. and they take on a very popular legacy from queen margrethe. po
