To: Conservative til I die
BTW, what happens if the King or Queen decides to convert to Catholicism? Is he/she no longer head of the Church of England?

In a word "yes" and can no longer be monarch either. The Act of Settlement (one of the written bits of the British constitution) provides that the sovereign must be a protestant descendant of Sophia, Electress of Hanover.

Old fashioned? Us?
