Is that ancient graffiti on the throne?

Victorian school kids graffiti I think

Dressing gown ( super tunica ) of doom !
Lots of sword action
Penny looks a bit scared

floraflo · 06/05/2023 11:54

So many steps to trip up or down 😬

Yes, it is, apparently.

Is that ancient graffiti on the throne?

Yep, from choir boys a few hundred years ago

Is Penny Mourdants dress some sort of uniform or did she just choose a nice dress and headband?

I was wondering that too.

It's a nice touch to have the Greek choir in reference to Philip.

I think it's her choice, she probably just went somewhere and said I need a very special outfit. It's fab, modern, but very suitable.

PickoftheMix · 06/05/2023 11:54

I bet they can't wait to go and have a glass of champagne cup of tea and some sandwiches!

Does anybody know what that song is that is being sung, when charles gets the sword it's sounds really old. Gorgeous!!

It's from the Greek Orthodox tradition in a nod to Prince Philip's Greek heritage.

Dp just pointed out all the graffiti on the throne, hadn't seen that before.

The moustache bloke is Karl Jenkins the composer, there's been a few answers but guess the threads move fast.

Absolutely loving the Greek Orthodox choir. Sounds more medieval than the plainsong.

Yes, it's brilliant isn't it. The Archbishop was explaining it in an interview with Huw

She must have been given a steer but the colour is unusual so must have been her choice. Think she’s first female in this role ever. I think it should have been floor length and would have looked even better

Strategically placed behind the feather in Anne's cap!

If Harry misbehaves she can lean back wearing her tricorn hat and poke him!

RealLife101 · 06/05/2023 11:55

The music is Greek Orthodox isn’t it?
Orthodox and Catholics have better church music <runs>

Waves back 🍷😁

Waitingfortaco · 06/05/2023 11:55

She's got it back now, without the holder! Poor woman!

ApolloandDaphne · 06/05/2023 11:55

I adore all the archaic symbolic stuff. It's both fabulous and slightly bonkers.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 06/05/2023 11:55

All this symbolism is making me quite shivery

the80sweregreat · 06/05/2023 11:55

Penny has a new sword ⚔️
They love a sword

MrsMariaReynolds · 06/05/2023 11:55

Agreed that Louis is suspiciously well-behaved. I also had a very lively one at that age, and there is no way he would have sat through an event of this length without "assistance" --and we are weekly church goers.

Penny must be relieved to set that sword down. 😁

BillStickersIsInnocent · 06/05/2023 11:55

Does this all get repeated for Camilla?

IAmNotOkay · 06/05/2023 11:55

Poor Penny doesn’t have the sword rest now but is back to holding one.

40thmonarch · 06/05/2023 11:55

Poor penny, back on their sword

TokyoSushi · 06/05/2023 11:56

I think if I were Charles I might be starting to feel a bit sick & faint!
