But King Charles will be 'very good' one local tells Manx Radio
Surprise at how much the death of Queen Elizabeth II has affected them and a sense that King Charles III will make a very good monarch.
Those are some of the feelings Island residents have shared with Manx Radio ahead of the Queen's funeral today (19 September).
The late monarch visited the Island several times during her reign - including twice to preside over the annual Tynwald Day ceremony.
These women from the Island told us how they felt about the change of monarch:
Island's first rapid EV charger being installed
Mooir Vannin could be first of many
'Significant investment or redevelopment' needed at Ramsey District Cottage Hospital
Braddan Commissioners open expressions of interest for TT camping at Roundhouse
