This is a bit weird.

It's like we know nothing about the Queen, she's sat there listening this to this shite.

DH has just said as much. I always wonder whether she thinks "Bloody hell not another celebratory whatnot that I'm obliged to attend. What I'd really like to do is stick my onesie on, grab a bag of Mini Eggs and watch my Breaking bad box set"

weemouse · 15/05/2016 21:11

It's painfully bad, no wonder she's got s face like a wet weekend.

bonnie1981 · 15/05/2016 21:12

I think its a bit weird too. a bit of a jumble. horses, music, history of the queen (yet again)

I didn't know Carson had married umbridge.

bloodypassword · 15/05/2016 21:13

It's cringe-worthy. Prince William looks bored shitless.

Gary Barlow has morphed musically in to Elton John. Poor queen.

bonnie1981 · 15/05/2016 21:15

probably the first time I've thought the queen earns her money, having to sit through things like this all the time.

she's probably thinking, okay I'm 90, fuck this, time to join mummy

Pieceofpurplepie

I just said exactly the same comment of the Barlow/Elton morph!!!

Equiem89 · 15/05/2016 21:16

As a rider I'm watching for the horses. I love the Shetland Grand National

WipsGlitter · 15/05/2016 21:29

The massive arena isn't really helping. Agree they all look bored shitless. It's not the Olympics opening ceremony...

TheFairyCaravan · 15/05/2016 21:31

I'm enjoying it. I love that the military are so involved in it.

PunkrockerGirl · 15/05/2016 21:31

Thought Helen Mirren looked good.

SoleBizzz · 15/05/2016 21:31

Some of the horses were frothing at the mouth and others looked uncomfortable with the bits. Is it cruel?

Equiem89 · 15/05/2016 21:33

No it's not cruel

LIZS · 15/05/2016 21:34

Eclectic mix , maybe they're going for British eccentricity. What is the choir and wtf is Katherine Jenkind wearing!

youngestisapsycho · 15/05/2016 21:34

I'm really enjoying it!

Shakey15000 · 15/05/2016 21:34

And now Katherine Bloody Jenkins. Right, it's going off Grin

janethegirl2 · 15/05/2016 21:35

The Queen looks bored, poor woman!

Whywhywhy1 · 15/05/2016 21:35

Definitely true re Gary Barlow/Elton John!

bloodypassword · 15/05/2016 21:35

Bet the queen is wishing she could bugger off back to Windsor castle for some cocoa and to watch 'gogglebox ' on C4. This is painful. I'm going to bed.

CousinViolent · 15/05/2016 21:35

Helen Mirren looks different. Kind of hamster-cheeked. Had to larf at the ironic jump-cut to Queen and D of E looking utterly naffed off as Mirren was talking about their inspiring marriage.

LIZS · 15/05/2016 21:36

Prince Philip looks ill. A bit OTT on the war for our German relations.

RoseDog · 15/05/2016 21:36

At least we can change the channel, although I'm watching as I keep thinking it will get better, the queen and prince Phillip are stuck there until the end!

Whywhywhy1 · 15/05/2016 21:37

It's not what I expected tbh

MintChocAddict · 15/05/2016 21:37

Christ, Gary Barlow and Katherine Jenkins on the same bill. Smugness overload. All we need now is Russell Watson.

And WTF with the cars at the beginning while Elton Gary sang that truly awful song.

I bet she's wishing they would all just feck off.

ItsaTenfromDen · 15/05/2016 21:45

The happy birthday tune sounds like one of those musical birthday cards

hope the battery runs out
