Is anyone else watching alone and fancying a thread to chat about the coverage?

My bloody dh has chosen this moment to clean out the fire ashes next to the tv. Lots of clattered and banging. 'It won't take long'. 😡

Ooh, what does the blue signify on the carriage horses??

PerkingFaintly · 06/05/2023 10:22

Ooh, lead postillion just letting her neighbouring horse know she's got her eye on him.

Sunak's wife looked lovely, much better than her dress last night

Agree.

No idea but it's a lovely shade of blue

Can’t stand Liz Truss. Her unnecessary budget screwed the economy instantly, thanks to her I’m now over 2 k a year worse off because my mortgage payments increased by over £200 pm, after going onto a new deal.
She now has the privilege of being an ex PM, with all the niceties and perks that come with it.

Does Liz Truss feel no shame or embarrassment? She’s a disgrace.

Totally agree. She should be ashamed. I don't think she should dare show her face at all!

I've rather fancied John Major since Jonny Lee Miller played him in The Crown [facile alert]

Ha yes really elevated him

I think (could be wrong) that the Federation of Saint Christopher and Nevis is the official name.

Show quote history

You must be right. He rarely puts a foot wrong.

I still can't hear this with "king" in the lyrics.

MrsRobinsonsHandprints · 06/05/2023 10:22

Cherie Blair makes me feel so anxious. It looked like she was giving John Major condolences, hope not

Agree, hope not also.

Laughing away. Crazy

Chatillon · 06/05/2023 10:22

Anyone else getting poor sound occasionally on the BBC or is it just me?

I thought that. But thought he looked cheerful enough so didn't look like he was receiving condolences.

Buckingham Palace looks really grey and post-apocalyptic.

Surely with all of the time that went into planning this someone could’ve popped to a garden centre?

Especially as KC loves trees and nature.

HaroldeVwilliam · 06/05/2023 10:23

Wow

fireplacetiles · 06/05/2023 10:23

He looks terrified!

JamSandle · 06/05/2023 10:23

Aren't the horses beautiful?

NurseCranesRolodex · 06/05/2023 10:23

Wow, these horses and the carriage, bloody stunning.

Yes, wasn't sure if it was my TV.

AbbyGal · 06/05/2023 10:23

No, me too, sound keeps 'jumping'

polkadotdalmation · 06/05/2023 10:23

Just love the choreography of it all

fireplacetiles · 06/05/2023 10:24

Carriage is real fairytale stuff

SunnyEgg · 06/05/2023 10:24

Looks so incredible

MrsRobinsonsHandprints · 06/05/2023 10:24

I always think of Camilla and Kate, not born into this, they must be pinching themselves.

SoupDragon · 06/05/2023 10:24

The whole thing is amazing.
