Erm- they would not be alone in doing this! The whole media circus for example!

I'll watch it on telly, yes. I'm not in favour of the monarchy, but it's a huge historic event, so I'm interested. I'll watch the coronation on telly when that comes around too, for the same reason.

LOL.

No, they don't have a TV, I'm expecting it to be quiet like it is when England are playing football.

There will never be another person like Queen Elizabeth ll. She was a very great lady

I disagree. I think there would be plenty of people that would be just as great and maybe even greater than she was, if they had the same advantages.

Why not? I guess if you want to mourn or celebrate or just watch a historic event with other people rather than at home it makes sense.

I'm very much hoping we can find somewhere open to eat in the evening, and wouldn't mind if they were showing footage from the day.

Wild horses couldn't drag me away from the TV. I won't be walking the dog or answering the phone or door all day. I want to see what they're wearing, I want to see any glitches live, I want to see all the interactions between them oh and of course show my respect to the queen

The old gal gave me a day off, so
will tune in for an hour.

No, I don't think so. I can't imagine anyone in this house will be, to be honest.
