When the couple were making their vows - heads firmly in programmes

who?

SparklyMagpie · 19/05/2018 16:48

Kate looked bored out of her tree to me

The camera views that I saw on the BBC showed Charles looking down during the vows, hopefully he was watching the rest of the time.

Sho is RF? Ralph Fiennes? Confused

HolyMountain · 19/05/2018 16:52

who's RF?

e1y1 · 19/05/2018 16:52

Would assume RF is Royal Family

sparklepops123 · 19/05/2018 16:52

Yes I noticed during the vows the families heads were down, surely that’s the main moment you should be paying attention

juneau · 19/05/2018 16:52

Royal Family.

I couldn't help seeing Kate staring at her lap throughout the vows. I wonder if she realised she was in shot and how it would look? Maybe she's just knackered with a new baby? She looked great, but looking at the couple would've been good.

Do all the guests look enraptured at weddings? Most are wondering possibly about the food & drink etc.

The wedding or any wedding is about the bride & groom.

Did anyone see HRH Prince Charles of Wales sleeping, then The Duchess of Cornwall nudging him? Shock

hidinginthenightgarden · 19/05/2018 17:20

I though most people looked pretty bored. It went on for ages!

dayinlifeof · 19/05/2018 17:23

Was anybody else a bit Shock about the BBC presenter asking the gentleman from Botswana if it was the first time he had worn a suit?

elephantscanring · 19/05/2018 17:24

Yes! Kate didn’t look up once. Pretty poor show. That’s the bit you want to see —and cry at—

Didn’t they realise they’d be on camera?? If I was Harry i’d be upset.

KittyMcKitty · 19/05/2018 17:28

I thought they were deep in contemplation- didn’t think there was anything off about it at all.

I’m not religious but it was a religious ceremony and surely it’s about contemplating the meaning of things rather then gawping at the bride?

Moonkissedlegs · 19/05/2018 17:29

I did notice that none of them seemed to be looking at the couple during the vows and it was a bit weird. They barely looked up at all.

CherieBabySpliffUp · 19/05/2018 17:30

I noticed Prince Charles wasn't looking during the ring exchange bit.

MagicFajita · 19/05/2018 17:31

Kate has recently given birth and is probably knackered and recovering. I know she's a royal but she's still human.

elephantscanring · 19/05/2018 17:31

Well, a bit of both, Kitty - guests are there because they love the b and g and want to see them married... it’s not a theoretical discussion of marriage, there’s an actual wedding going on!

Thought meghan’s mum behaved better than the rf.

elephantscanring · 19/05/2018 17:32

So kate’s too tired to look up for 5 mins? Nah. I don’t buy that.

SabineUndine · 19/05/2018 17:33

I think you mean ‘uninterested’.

savagebaggagemaster · 19/05/2018 17:37

I think you mean ‘uninterested’

Nope I think she means 'disinterested'. Smile

NambiBambi · 19/05/2018 17:40

It was a little odd and very noticeable. Charles, Duke of Edinburgh, Kate, Camilla all just looking down during the vows or very obviously reading the order of service.

DrEustaciaBenson · 19/05/2018 17:40

They wouldn't have been able to see much from where they were sitting, would they? Behind Harry and Meghan, and sideways on.

ICantCopeAnymore · 19/05/2018 17:42

It's definitely uninterested.

Olddear · 19/05/2018 17:43

Maybe Kate's miffed there's a new, glamorous kid on the block
