Have you seen this “Tea Party” game:

What is your Royal Wedding guest name? Start with either Lord or Lady. Your first name is one of your grandparents names. Your surname is the name of your first pet, double-barreled with the name of the street you grew up on. Have fun! (swiped this from nephew)

Mine is Bertha Dooley from Chapel

too fun

Hsb's is : Lord Peter Sniffy from Elm

I agree with you about BBC America. As an alternative, may I suggest The Learning Channel. They have had some lead-in programs that were interesting and informed, without the People magazine-E!-TMZ tone set by so many of the other channels.

Thought maybe the Dancing/with/Stars group might want a bit of “pomp” and frivolity and join us.
