Speaking on the show, which is called Music & Memories With HRH The Prince Of Wales and will be broadcast at 12 p.m. local time, the heir to the British throne spoke of how he has been “profoundly impressed by the dedication shown by our wonderful NHS [National Health Service] staff and volunteers right across the country.” He thanked them for their “sheer resilience and indomitable spirit” in “this most testing of times.”
