During the premiere episode, which was dedicated to memories of Her Majesty, Mike got a little bit emotional as he spoke about tributes that had been left for the monarch. Reflecting on the large audience that had tuned in to watch the Queen's state funeral, Mike - who is married to the late monarch's granddaughter Zara Tindall - explained how the weight of the world's eyes hadn't affected him but was instead moved by how the world came together.

Fighting back tears, he added: "Even though being in London for a couple days through the week prior, what happened in Green Park, what they did with the flowers, and being lucky enough to go to Windsor and seeing all the flowers being put up the Long Mile.
"And her friends who were in the Long Walk sending me messages, sending me photos, that's where you gauge the importance."
He concluded that it had been a "positive" experience to attend the funeral, despite the solemness of the event.

Mike also praised the way that world leaders conducted themselves for the funeral, with all the invited dignitaries accepting their invitations and none of them "making it about themselves".
