ROYAL WEDDING THREAD

[Neversoft]

Three days to go. It's gonna be on the BBC all Friday and the highlights will probably be broadcast until 2015. Who's going to be watching?

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-12920036
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-13097243

And who is going to be an idiot and watch it on ITV?

I'd love to go to London and join in the celebrations, but unfortunately I'll be outta town during the wedding so I'll have to stick with the TV.

[Triz]

I'm not watching it at all.
I'm working, and yes I do live in the UK!

[Andys]

I'm recording it so I can play the royal wedding drinking game later ;D

[dirrty]

the ONLY way i'm watching it is if we do the royal wedding drinking game. hopefully though as it'd be jokes (minus the fact i'd have to watch that ****).

[Alkaz]

I am contemplating going to London but I've no idea where to go so not too sure yet.

I know I will probably be best off watching it at home but I just want to go, get a glimpse, feel the atmosphere. Urgh the excitement!

[Nemo]

I wont be watching it, i will be revising.


THE JOYS OF STUDENT LIFE.

[Misawa]

I won't be watching it because I could not care less.

[Shar]

I'll go to London if I can if not I'm watchin it on tv.

[Chris]

Doesn't really interest me, I have better things to do on a friday. :L

[Nicola]

I'll be watching it but I'm not gonna lie, I'm only watching it to see what her dress looks like haha.

[Shar]

I'll be watching it but I'm not gonna lie, I'm only watching it to see what her dress looks like haha.

LOL that's exactly the reason I'm going to be watching it :$

[peteyt]

Some people have money to earn.

I Don't really see the point. Wow they are getting married, the probably wont ever do anything for us. I'd rather sit through big brother (and I hate the show)

[Jssy]

Might watch a bit of it

[brandon]

I have no intention of watching any of it

[.x.miss.angel.x]

I want to see it ;) Since when we are all older they will still be talking about it, and it would be nice that you can remeber and join in ;) {Ok, and I want to see the dresses....}

[Inseriousity.]

not gonna bother watching, there will probably be 15 pages of the newspaper dedicated to everything from the wedding so I dont need to watch it :P

[luce]

i'm only watching because i will be willing it to fail. and my mum is doing a buffet and i never turn down food :-)!

[Mathew]

lol at the drinking game. Impressive.

I think it will probably be on in the background so I'll glance at it. My Mum's cousin is holding a party type thing (hopefully BBQ'ing but I'm not counting on it :P) so that should be a nice little get together. It's going to be a significant part of history whether we like it or not, so hey.. might as well watch it ;D

It was on Sky News this morning that someone is already there in London, sleeping out on the street.. ready to watch the wedding. Crazy, but hey that's dedication :P

[Deak]

Wedding... What wedding ...?

I will probably just look to see whats happening and then watch something else

[Accipiter]

The emotions that will run through me while watching this show just entice me into it.

No it's full of ****, who on earth wants to see snobby people born into wealth rub it in our faces?

[Cheryl]

I might do. It looks like it's going to piss it down on Friday aswell :P Should be interesting

[Red]

I wont be watching it, i will be revising.


THE JOYS OF STUDENT LIFE.

ahh this should be me also. my mum was gutted when i told her i was going back to uni before the wedding. Think I'll watch it live on iplayer tho :-)

[Rozi]

http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Royal-Wedding-Drinking-Game-2942011/170990552921694


ahah this.
I'm probs gonna go jam around London on the day and then head back to my friends and play the game

[Ed.]

I'm going to a Royal Wedding Party. We're all dressing up in Farmer Fashion / Red White and Blue and having a pardy.

[RyRy]

I won't be watching it because I don't have a TV LOL

[Janet Snakehole]

I'm not even interested in the Royal Wedding, however I'll be in LDN on the friday so no doubt I shall see what it's all about if I get the chance to! It's gonna be packed.

[dbgtz]

my wedding gift to them is gracing them with me watching
well ill shove it on the tv whilst playing something on my pc. Unless psn is back on thursday night so I can play coop on friday. Portal 2 > royal wedding

[Fez]

I'm boycotting this nonsense. Half of what the UK currently spends on its unemployed will be wasted in one day to watch two unimportant people get married. Bless them, I'm happy for them but it's been really blown out of proportion the bill that the taxpayer will have to pick up.

My mum and family are still trapped in the fifties so are excited to be watching with them all hoping to cry.

[Accipiter]

They'd probably get more media coverage and fame out of having a small wedding. Like respectable folk would do.

[Sharon]

i don't care in the slightest at all, i'll probably look at the after pics.

[Ed.]

But what about?

http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Royal-Wedding-Drinking-Game-2942011/170990552921694?sk=info

[Ceilidh.]

I'll only watch a bit to see what her dress looks like :P

[AgnesIO]

Only be king and queen of the country. But no, nothing really.

--

I will watch some of it, just as the scenes will be amazing and seeing what everyone is wearing etc :P Isn't it being shown on youtube?

http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Royal-Wedding-Drinking-Game-2942011/170990552921694?sk=info

Because that wasn't the second reply to this thread.

[Ceilidh.]

I'm wondering, will she be known as "Princess Kate" or "Princess Catherine" ?

[AgnesIO]

I'm wondering, will she be known as "Princess Kate" or "Princess Catherine" ?

If it has anything to do with the royal family, Katherine I assume

[Katty24]

I dunno whether to watch it or not cos Facebook and Twitter are gonna be full of watching it so I don't know. Also depends on what I'm doing... hmmm, decisions.

[-:Undertaker:-]

The emotions that will run through me while watching this show just entice me into it.

No it's full of ****, who on earth wants to see snobby people born into wealth rub it in our faces?

Judging from that reply i'd call into question who is the real snob.

Unlike the politicians, the monarchy do actually do some good you know.

If we had a President we would still get the same officaldom ceremonies, just it would be without the British pomp (which fuels the tourism and embodies our constitution and thus our country) and it would be somebody like Mr Blair or Mr Cameron sitting in Buckingham Palace. Now is that what you republicans really want, a President Blair and his first lady Cherie sitting in Buckingham Palace? personally I can't think of anything more that would signal the destruction of our country as that horrid image.

I shall be watching - the monarchy helps gurantee our ultimate liberty, avoids consitutional uprisings/political crisis and symbolises our country.

[GommeInc]

Both :P Officially she will be Princess Catherine, but people will call her Princess Kate like they did with Princess Diana (Princess Di).

I can understand that and the masses of tourism money/trade the event will encourage, but I just can't see it being right that we spend billions of pounds on the event to get a return of millions. I understand the monarchy is the only reason Britain is still a tourism hotspot and trade place, but I just don't want to see two people get married on the television at the expense of billions of pounds while my education is trickled down the drain.

[Hecktix]

She certainly looks very beautiful.

[Mathew]

Agreed. There's some very proud people there today!

Good old Queen Elizabeth looking as natural as ever in her famous canary yellow outfit.
I noticed Camilla couldn't be bothered singing either, haha :P

Mike Middleton looked so proud, I can't help but wonder what he thought when she phoned him up and said "Hey Dad, I'm dating Prince William".... I bet he's trying to get Pippa off to a rich man now :P Harry?!

Now we have a religious version of Brian Blessed on lolol.

[sammy]

I WOKE UP LATE AND MISSED MOST OF IT.

it's actually really interesting so far, kate looks stunning!

need to wait for the kiss and all that yet :D

[Nicola]

I've been watching since about 10am, it was actually quite exciting watching them all go to the church and when William was on his way he just looked so happy bless him.

Kate looks beautiful and I love her dress. She was proper gripping onto her father's hand as they were walking down the aisle :P The bridesmaids look cute too.

They looked so happy when they saw eachother for the first time - best bit of the wedding!

[Mathew]

Yeahhhhh, I really enjoyed watching them all drive there - I don't know why :P This whole event is SO traditional, it's amazing. I wish I owned Westminster Abbey.

[Hecktix]

It's certainly a lot of bloody fuss, just kiss the bride and go get pissed I say. If I was Will there'd be one thing on my mind.

[Deak]

There might be :P

lol

Who said romance was dead? :D

[smiffy70]

Swear to god the ring nearly didn't fit

[Nicola]

All the singing is a bit much for me though, it takes so long. Prince Harry and I have got something going on though, watch this space ;)

oh oh oh GOD SAVE THE QUEEN.

[Aidenn]

Im not going to mention what i seen when Kate Middleton was walking into the church, despite my whole family even my sister who is 8 seen it.

I must admit i was drooling over all that gold or w/e it is.
Red carpet <3
and the transportation was by far the best.

[Mathew]

Let poor Phillip sit down, his back must be killing him! :P

I love how the Queen doesn't sing the National Anthem, oh the perks of being in her position!

[Hecktix]

Okay... I was going to post "would the queen sing this" but then it showed her.

"YEH, THIS IS MY SONG, SING IT FOR ME *******"

[Mathew]

Prince Harry and I have got something going on though, watch this space ;).
Can we be expecting an "Ask Prince Harry" in place of "Ask 0rca"? :P

[Moh]

Russell Howard: "God save... me?"

[Nicola]

No he's not good enough for our forum ;l

http://images.ctv.ca/archives/CTVNews/img2/20110429/800_kate_will_married_ap_110429_430241.jpg?2

How cute is that picture, they look so happy :D

[Aidenn]

Can we be expecting an "Ask Prince Harry" in place of "Ask 0rca"? :P
LOLOLOL

Prince Harry has the same hairstyle as me, he blates copied, but im not ginger.

+ My Grandad would of flipped if he was still alive when Prince Charls done something disresptful near the beginning. (taken his hat and glves off, blow his nose in between his thumb and finger then shaken peoples hands)

[iBlueBox]

friend just posted this on facebook LOL

http://i52.tinypic.com/2rc0f1g.png

[Hecktix]

I like how they talk about her being a commoner but her family was worth millions before she met Will. I'd love to see a Royal marry a true commoner, oh the scandal.

[Mathew]

LMAO apparently a lip-reader on Twitter said that William said to Kate's Father - "We were supposed to have a small family affair" :P:P BBC News just said.

I'm surprised they're travelling in open-top when the Queen is in her bullet-proof cabinet.
William is saluting everyone left right and centre too lololol.

[Hecktix]

omg did you see the Queen jolt forward as her carriage stopped quite abruptly.
Love how everone else gets coaches when the others have Horse drawn carriages or Rolls.

[Nicola]

Woo I finally found a picture the Princesses, Beatrice and Eugenie:

http://www.usmagazine.com/uploads/assets/articles/40721-pic-see-princesses-beatrice-and-eugenies-fascinators/1304071108_beatrice-eugenie-290.jpg

What the hell are they wearing on their heads? I feel sorry for whoever was sat behind them :P

[Red]

ahhhhh she is gorgeous. makes your proud to be British! =]

[Mathew]

Hahaha. I thought William & Kate set off, then the Queen... then Harry. Did the Queen take a wrong turning cos she was beaten back by Harry lmao :P


What the hell are they wearing on their heads? I feel sorry for whoever was sat behind them :P
LMAO. Yeah I think some of the hats in that Abbey are a bit too modern :P


ahhhhh she is gorgeous. makes your proud to be British! =]
Agreed, it's so cute and traditional!! :)

[Misawa]

Half-brother Harry was looking like a zombie.

[AgnesIO]

Loved how when the Queen got the Abbey, the guy opened the door for her, and she got out of the other side :L

[Mathew]

Half-brother Harry was looking like a zombie.
Rubbish lol.


Loved how when the Queen got the Abbey, the guy opened the door for her, and she got out of the other side :L
I noticed that hahaha :P

[Misawa]

Harry is almost certainly James Hewitt's son. Doesn't take a genius to work that out. Diana was an utter *****.

What is it with you?

You just seem to want to cause controversy - constantly.

What the hell are they wearing on their heads? I feel sorry for whoever was sat behind them :P
they're obviously trying to emulate the evil step-sisters from cinderella

[Misawa]

It's hardly controversial when Diana has so many detractors.

[Nemo]

contains a swear wordhttp://i.imgur.com/5pWNv.jpg

Had to be shown.


Gotta say a lot of that wedding was bloody boring though

[Misawa]

The only time Harry is glad he's not Charles' son is when he looks over at Will and sees that he won't be balding before age 30.

[Moh]

did anybody else find it funny how when they opened the doors on the queens car at the church, they opened the queens door yet she got out the other door.

[matt$]

I was waiting for those planes to do more then just fly past lmao

It's called a fly past for a reason ;)

[matt$]

It's called a fly past for a reason ;)

Oh lmao i wasn't paying too much attention to what they were saying just saw that some planes were arriving + i should of gone hyde park looked like it was fun.

[-Danube-]

She did look alright didn't she ;)

I was watching the big fat gypsy wedding thing last night, was thinking how funny it would have been for her to turn up in one of those dresses.

I haven't seen Prince Philip for ages and i couldn't believe how much he looks like this:

http://i.thisislondon.co.uk/i/pix/2009/10/scrooge500.jpg

He's look very old now. 90 this year isn't it?

[Technologic]

They look like the ugly stepsisters

[Triz]

Nice to know that if I ever do go to a Royal wedding I can wear what ever I like on my head.. I'll fit in quite nicely!
In fact I think I might wear a sombrero and then stick my cat on the top of it, with his scratching post up there.

[Ceilidh.]

I honestly thought the ring wasn't going to fit her D: She looked amazing <333

haha, my mum can lip-read and seen him say that too. I liked the fact he was driving the car himself :)

[dbgtz]

I loled when they went on the blacony and the crowd went mental at both kisses lolol.

woowoowoo
*kiss*
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMFGAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHH

[Triz]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMFGAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHH


Kiss.. Ha. they were pecks.
They started going mental as they got closer..
I'd have had fun with that.. There be me going in for a kiss, then back out, then in again.. and listen to the pitch of the crowd change :)

[Alkaz]

I was waiting for those planes to do more then just fly past lmao
I was in Hyde Park when they flew over, was pretty cool.

I was in Whitehall a little way up from where they was coming through from House Guards and literally saw everyone :D I didn't know either that they're now but HRH Duke of Cambridge and HRH Duchess of Cambridge :o

One of the police horses on the way back from Westminster Abbey bolted for some reason as well :S

[dbgtz]

are there any official viewing figures out? bit early but it will be interesting to see how many watched it.

[AgnesIO]

are there any official viewing figures out? bit early but it will be interesting to see how many watched it.

Would be very hard to calculate.

I mean 300k were watching from the screens at Hyde Park, but actual figures would be, I imagine, near impossible to get.
