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

I've just tuned in. What's happening?? Has he been crowned yet? Or is that at the end.

I'm impressed the King doesn't need glasses. Laser eye surgery?

Very big print on the cue cards!

TokyoSushi · 06/05/2023 11:19

They're showing a bit more of the Wales' now, Kate & Charlotte look so beautiful.

Not sure if it has already been mentioned but hasn’t he got rather podgy fingers?! He’s not a huge bloke but he’s got fingers that look like 5th belong to a bloated Henry VIII

I feel sorry for all those loons people lining the streets. We are just outside London and it's PISSING down.

Anyone know about the throne? Looks ancient. Surely not 12ish century?

It dates back to 13 something. First used by one of the Edwards I think.

YetAnotherSpartacus · 06/05/2023 11:19

Thank fuck they remembered the pen!

FormerlySpeckledyHen · 06/05/2023 11:19

Love the comb over

IthinkIsawahairbrushbackthere · 06/05/2023 11:19

@YetAnotherSpartacus I thought that. Looked like they needed ironing too.

PuppyMonkey · 06/05/2023 11:19

I think he might cry.

Not yet, nearer if not at the end I think.

polkadotdalmation · 06/05/2023 11:19

@WeWereInParis Wow. Thanks

Thank god the pen worked this time 😆

Haha DH just said "for God sake give the man a biro!"

KrasiTime · 06/05/2023 11:18

I’m recording both ITV & bbc so can rewatch later. Dh thinks I’m sad. He’s on tea duty.

Surely it will be on the catchup services?

Thank god the pen worked this time 😆

I was thinking this!!

TokyoSushi · 06/05/2023 11:20

He does seem emotional but I suppose it is, well, a lot!

JamSandle · 06/05/2023 11:20

I know Queen Elizabeth will be watching over Charles today.

Jetlaggedgirl · 06/05/2023 11:20

pleased the pen worked this time !

a1234567 · 06/05/2023 11:20

I'm so pleased to see girl choristers in the choir. That's a step forward.

HilaryThorpe · 06/05/2023 11:20

It is so extraordinarily close and personal. I watched the last one on our 9" black and white telly, but even allowing for that it was much more distant and partly hidden.

HaroldeVwilliam · 06/05/2023 11:20

Who are the ladies in white next to camilla

TheVanguardSix · 06/05/2023 11:20

Ok enough pen jokes.

"I come not to be served, but to serve".

I never cry, but I got a teeny bit teary at that moment between him and wee Samuel.

Did I hear the ITV commentator get that the wrong way round when he repeated it straight after ?

Might be wrong , just wondering

RobinaHood · 06/05/2023 11:21

Charles and Camilla look emotional and overwhelmed. It's quite sweet.

How did a chair almost a millennium old pass a health and safety risk assessment?
