  • I could listen to the cello all day

    Loved the performance of Ave Maria
  • Must go and do a proper sightseeing visit to Windsor!

    Yes! Never been there.
  • ITV Coverage like that of the old BBC - informative, measured, professional. BBC Coverage like some dogshit Channel 5 reality TV programme. I think Perfect Curve might have been behind the planning.
  • What time is the reception on and on what channel?

    Windsor looking magnificent. Great advert for Britain. Makes me proud to be British

    And not a homeless person in sight. #proud
    and no one stabbing each other, or shooting up, or killing their spouse...so whats your point?
  • Pimms, presecco and now peroni. Super.! If only that fuckwit Dermot wasn't fronting the coverage.
  • Must go and do a proper sightseeing visit to Windsor!

    Yes! Never been there.
    Pubs are brilliant in Windsor, especially in the winter when they all have roaring fireplaces and lovely local ales.
  • Is it over yet? Can I put the TV on?

    Not a royalist by any stretch of the imagination but that was fantastic and showcased the fantastic, modern, country that Britain is. We should spend more time celebrating that and less arguing amongst ourselves.

    Yes, but we're British.

    A few of us have been saying this on every Royal thread on here for the last god knows how long
  • Absolutely fabulous (bar the American preacher and what sounded like red indians outside the chapel.

    Great Britain at its pomp, ceremonial best in the sunshine.

    Greatest country in the world and why what looked like a million people graced the streets to wave their flags

    Rule Brittania

    You've been saying that the Royals showcase "the fantastic, modern, country that Britain is"?

    Today was the first time I've ever felt that way about them really.

    Weather helped massively, this country (and London specifically) in the summertime is the best place on Earth.

    I think you need to get your passport out and travel a little more widely! :-)

  • Some random thoughts.
    God knows what would've happened if it had rained but the weather has been splendid.
    Apart from Major I didn't see many politicians.
    The packaging generated this morning by everybody wearing brand new shirts and socks and keks must've been awesome.
    I didn't see much mobile phone usage or hear one go off.
    I thought Meghans mum looked a bit lonely at times and wished she had a mate with her.
    The collective bladder control of everybody was impressive.
    A lot of the hats would have been useless in the rain, but on the up side most of them could be angled to give a bit of shade.
    The age group from about 8 to 17 looked underrepresented.
    The two familiar hymns were lovely and especially nice that local boy, and would've been Addick, Thomas Tallis, was featured in the music.
    We also had another Charlton connection when the splendid equine creatures went away, it was Goodbye Horse.

    I'm not a Royalist, atlhough I have nothing against the members of the Royal family, and I hugely respect the Queen.

    But on this you have my complete agreement.

    If you knew me you'd know my passport is very well used mate, I feel my point still stands.

    Got it wrong first time? Good effort though.

    Good that the foreigners didn't totally ruin it for you.
  • Good to see the Royal family become more multicultural and relevant to the modern age and also enjoyed the fact there were no politicians there.

    John Major was there.

    John Major was there.
    Meant current politicians as well as other heads of state. Did notice Major there but enjoyed the fact it was a lot less formal to reflect a more modern age.
