Noticed the guards putting on their headgear, presumably ready for the off. Dh and I have decided to use “I think it’s time to don busbies” as a code for ‘I’ve had enough, let’s go’ at social occasions from now on!

Or am I wrong and was everyone standing?

When it comes to this sort of thing, the Brits are pure Gormenghast… 🤩

Ha! Yeah 🤣🤣🤣

Ooh I think Huw Edwards has been mainlining Nurofen and Vocalzones. He'll stay upright ok.

Do you reckon all these kids taking part today … especially the “important” ones … go home later and play on their PlayStations like “normal” kids? Headphones and Fortnight?

I find the kids fascinating

Louis is back

the80sweregreat · 06/05/2023 12:55

Zadok was great.
I liked the gospel choir too

ShakeYourFeathers · 06/05/2023 12:55

Louis is back now

Louis is dressed similar to two of the pages so maybe he will have a place in the procession. Shame no female pages or any of colour.

William and Kate plus children are in the first carriage behind Charles and Camilla so I assume he'll walk out with them and into the carriage. But not a "role" as such.

Grip that orb

Louis is back

Probably needed the loo!

Bouledeneige · 06/05/2023 12:56

Such a dreary national anthem

Barbadossunset · 06/05/2023 12:57

Princess Charlotte’s tiara is so cute

GCAcademic · 06/05/2023 12:57

Penny Mordaunt looks like she is really suffering. I nearly feel sorry for her.

LIZS · 06/05/2023 12:57

Yes he's back. Yet another set of robes for KC.

Bouledeneige · 06/05/2023 12:57

Good ole Penny - she's been fab

Allwelcone · 06/05/2023 12:57

Yeah the Zadok moment was the best, with the screens and stuff.

mixedrecycling · 06/05/2023 12:57

OchreDandelion · 06/05/2023 12:53

Unless they have put some more in, there are hardly any loos there.

Show quote history

Presumably they can pop across Deans Yard to Church House - the HQ of the 'business' aspects of the CofE. Or Westminster School facilities. Or they hired is Methodist Central Hall across the road or that big conference. Or maybe portaloos in the cloisters 😂

Babymamamama · 06/05/2023 12:57

Second verse who knew

TheFluffiestHobo · 06/05/2023 12:57

SunnyEgg · 06/05/2023 12:54

What were you after?

Not sure how they could improve it as a ceremony

Show quote history

Jugglers, fire eaters, stand up comedian to warm up the crowd. Ds6 asked if the king was going to fight someone when they brought the swords out. Now THAT would have been entertaining.

Shame no female pages or any of colour.

They tend to be family don't they? Perhaps the Sussex children will be the first.

Charlie looks like his mum.

LIZS · 06/05/2023 12:58

Did Harry bow with the others?

Figgygal · 06/05/2023 12:58

Harry isn't singing is he?

SoupDragon · 06/05/2023 12:50

I know they've had a lot of rehearsals but it's amazing to bring together all the different choristers and musicians into one whole.

I just said as much to the husband
various choirs and an orchestra with two different conductors and military horns.
and not a thing wrong
