Royal Wedding : (

[Undertaker]

Snooker is on all day as well. Watch that.

Not interested at all in the wedding but i do think the British do these things better than anyone else. Does Kate get a title? Princess of ???? She is a beautiful lady.

She is now the Duchess of Cambridge. Twas breaking news on Digital Spy earlier.

The British do these things better than anyone else. I've been listening to that jingoistic twaddle all week. Lol.

The Royal Wedding shows the BBC up for what it is: a conservative and reactionary institution with its nose so far up the establishment's fundament that it's just not funny.

Lest we forget, the BBC's former chief political correspondent takes out super injunctions to prevent the free press reporting on his jug-eared philandering.

The snooker's good though.

It's not 'jingoistic' at all. Pick up a dictionary sometime.

If for example Putin daughter will marry some guy, I don't really care... I don't understand why so many people are interested in it...
If this guy saved... koalas from burning forest - I think it deserves some attention. I don't know who that woman and that guy. Royal wedding, what those people did to get so much attention? Stopped a war or saved African children?

They're royalty, he is the future king not 'that guy'. They're following years of tradition...


Look at the cake!

I didn't see all of it this morning on tv as I had to go out, but I saw the actual ceremony, and watched highlights on itv this evening. They both looked so genuinely happy. Something which was missing from Diana's wedding!
Made me proud to be british seeing all those crowds of people and flags being waved.


Hahaha I cannot believe that radio caller! Is he all there???
'The country's on it's knees' yeah so a day of celebration is good for people surely??
People like HIM make me sick.

Careful, lest you be accused of being a jingoistic right wing Daily Mail-reading bigot.

It was a nice day. There was a big party. We all had a day off. Everyone looked happy. The music was great. All went according to plan. No-one died.

my mother said she was up at 4 in the morning till 6 watching it. she said it was awesome.

And so you should have felt, dear Lucy!

I noticed too the happiness and emotion during the ceremony at the Abbey. And the Middletons are such a beautiful family, aren`t they? Especially the young James - his reading from the Gospel was so nice to see and hear!

Lol, are things that bad now? (Btw what is 'jingoistic' I've never heard of that before..)
Soon people won't even put up british flags anywhere for fear of looking like a BNP supporter.

That's not the point though. You could do all of those things anyway. Some people just like being serfs.

I always find it amusing when William Blake's words (from his paean to the republican Milton) are used on such occasions.

[Radiophonic]

I think the majority of Britain just see it as something to celebrate - nothing more. Hasn't the news been grim in the last few years? Let's forget it FOR ONE DAY even with the usual pretentious party poopers.

Jingoistic, Lucy, is looking down on other nations as inferior than our own. It used to have a more sinister meaning. Celebrating Britain (by default, that's what today was all about) isn't being jingoistic, it's just having a knees-up.

I wasn't going to pay much attention to it, but I knew there was no avoiding it so I watched a bit of it tonight and I thought it was all very well done.
