The Coronation of King Charles III
Hoagy62

Posted on 05/05/2023 11:21:36 PM PDT by hoagy62

Is anyone gonna watch? This is something that you may only get to see one time in your life.

Most networks are going to start the telecast at about 5am Eastern time. PBS will start much earlier, simulcasting the BBC.

I could care less about king charles the turd. These people are on welfare and don’t even squeeze their own toothpaste. Everything is done for them. Really disgusting.

Fox was unwatchable. The ladies would not shut up.

US coverage was embarrassing. Guy on ABC called it a recession, before correcti g himself to calling it a procession. Other alphabet channels talked of diversity. FOX was nothing but chatter.

“‘Give her five points for balancing the crown during her curtsy to Charles.’

what does she do next...? count to twenty with her foot...?”

I think I heard that the Archbishop “accidently” placed the crown on her head backwards and that was why she had trouble with it. I could not help but think that the ghost of Princess Di was trying to keep it off her head.

I’ll watch it after the fact, as I did QEII’s funeral.

Not sure I’ll be too interested in Charles and his Queen Consort (if I were a subject, she would always remain the Consort and nothing else.)

I watched the marriage of him and Princess Diana and watched her sad funeral. I’m a Royal watcher, but not a fan of the current king.

Waiting for him to pass the crown to William.

Heard Andrew was soundly booed prior to entering Westminister. Must have happened before 5AM EST when US coverage began.

Heartiest congratulations on the coronation and best wishes for your King.

I was thinking that long ago you told a story of meeting HRH in your youth but I may just be confusing someone else.

My brother had a friend who had been a military attendant to Charles and Diana on a vacation in Belize when William was a baby and had nothing but great things to say about how they interacted with everyone.

It has the same impact on me as any other tourist attraction, but it is a cut above simulated events for kids at, say, Disneyworld.

Late in 1999 someone from National Lampoon joked that the UK was going to be acquired by Disney and the whole place converted to the United Magic Kingdom. The accompanying graphic showed the Queen and one of her guards with his head replaced by Mickey. :^)
