Had a good chuckle there, we have the subtitles on the TV and instead of saying Major Andrew Dickinson it came up as Angie Dickinson

Also the organ in the cathedral sounded like a five year old was playing it.

Must add watching it under duress.

I was banished from the living room an hour ago for taking the mick.

I normally listen to the radio on the afternoon ffs it’s even Radio Tees, how can it be spectacle if can’t see f. all !
Fortunately I have an Alexa so I can listen to some music.

Who is the birds with nice tits in the blue dress?

The music is epic.

The very lovely Penny Maudant.

Ahh yes i thought i had seen them before

She’s very lovely and moist

Still? After all this time.

Penny Mordaunt looked lovely and did a great job.
I really enjoyed the show especially the military precision and, like Pooly Imp said, the music was awesome and so where the choir and singers.
I was pleasantly surprised.

Green dress surely? One of us is colour blind - or has a TV on the blink.

Anyway, the hottest woman in the H of C, which is saying very little. Never voted Tory in my life but she could swing me if she played her cards right.

F**k the tories

Your sex life is your own business.

The biggest shock for me was who invited Ant n Dec….. so disgusted I made my excuses and left….. and carried on wiring the summer house.

Don,t think they were invited, You know what geordies are like.

Definitely blue on the photos - My tele must be knackered

Looks like Charlie is on a promise tonight...and tbf Camilla is looking more glamorous nowadays..

I thought the Four Tops were good.

Yes blue on my tv.

Sadly, they were.

Teslyn Barkman, the Falkland Islands representative, didn’t look half bad either.

FFS just put Sky News on and it’s a rerun of yesterday’s events !

Er, obviously, what did you expect…… the day after the Queen died did you expect TV to go back the ‘tits, bums and soap stars’……

I some times doubt the mentality of the people who run tv stations, I don’t think they have any idea what people like to watch, no wonder people subscribe to Netflix, Amazon etc. Ok some might have missed out on yesterday’s event but it’s the constant harping on about who there what they were wearing how the royal kids were behaving, even YouTube is inundated with clips.

proud to say i never saw a minute of it. the tele was not on until we went out at 10.15 not returning till 2.30. must have been the first time for years if ever i enjoyed being in supermarkets along with loads of other blokes which is a rarety. even the roads were no quieter than a normal saturday. infact i thought halifax town were at home when passing the ground about 2 with the traffic about.

should have gone all 2023 to have watched it in a dress with your own crown jewels.

It’s what women like, do the maths.

and the main reason why they watch anyway.

Getting the wife to give up her access to things like this is like approaching a mother tiger and asking if you can stroke her cubs….it won’t end well.

Very true but she likes to get wet.

Its like when the world cup is on. All there is is football football football. I don't care if lots of people are interested in it, it's a bit much.

Luckily coronations don’t come around every four years and don’t last a month, something to be thankful for.

god save the king

let sky tv have the full rights to show the world cup, coronations and everything else they push down our throats. think there would not be as much coverage before the events then.

I have to say the coronation drone show was very impressive .It's amazing what they can do with them now.

The highlights of coronation looked as if it was well organised no wonder it cost around £100 million, shocking.

I suspect the just over a billion spent by the visitors will compensate.
Tourists coming to visit the changing of the wheely bins outside President Sunak or President Starmer’s will be a niche market.

Joking aside, you make a great point about spending by visitors.

Using the arguments made by others, we would never ever host a world cup again. Russia spent 16bn USD on the world cup in 2018 and only got a bit back. Brazil spent even more in 2014.

Can we ask those companies who benefitted from the "over a billion spent by the visitors" to pay a bit more towards the costs currently being paid for by general taxation? A bit like a windfall tax on the power companies.

I would guess they are primarily in Central London so it could be it could be an additional Business Tax collected down there.

Most will be small traders so you’ll get no ‘windfall tax’ but they will be paying tax on it….. so the Government will benefit from it. Again, do the maths.

I can’t see the vendors selling souvenirs, ice cream and hot dogs etc passing much on in tax.

That's pretty harsh on the whole souvenir/snack industry. Calling them all tax dodgers.

Mostly cash in hand, one for me one for the government I think, wouldn’t you ?

Hotels, transport etc etc…a bit more than dodgy hot dog floggers.

the whole propaganda machine was worse than the whole affair. local news saying coachloads of people going down from barnsley for the coronation. the number who travelled was 80. the same number who we take the mick out of if a team only takes that number to the vic.
