Many of you will know that we have another of our occasional royal weddings going on over here next week. This footage from rehearsals show that this one could be a little less stuffy than usual. YouTube - The T-Mobile Royal Wedding

There is some great stuff coming out of this, plus a holiday!
Some of the parody songs in the charts/on the net at the mo are great.

Generally I have zero interest in our royal family and despise the way that the media pushes them on the public as being somehow important or relevant. It's like some sort of crummy soap opera.
In a country where millions watch Eastenders or Emmerdale I don't find the phenomenon too surprising, just depressing.

But did you watch the vid?

Enough. I've just had enough ..... | Will it be shown on TV over there? The reason I ask is that one of my Dad's US friends has asked him to record it and take the DVD over when he visits next month (yes, seriously). If it's networked over there I'll tell him not to bother.

I am curious to know however, given the speed at which this wedding has been planned, is there a chance that perhaps the bride has something cooking in the oven?

Fishheadjoe | Ive been hearing about this wedding since, I think, sometime in November or October. If she's preggers some tabloid (TMZ?)would undoubtedly have photographic evidence.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jul 2007 Location: Yorkshire, England, UK | | | I don't want to hear anybody knocking the royal wedding. I am getting a gig out of it, my band declined so I am going as a duo with another muso in the village. Should be interesting. We haven't decide on the setlist yet but he sings quite a few and so do I so those will form the core of it.
I won't be watching it on TV, my 3 kids plus partners are all descending on me and they want to do something a bit more exciting than watching endless hours of virtually nothing. I suspect a good walk is probably being planned but I will find out sooner or later.
Don't get me wrong, I am not anti-royal (or pro-royal come to that), I just find that it is hyped out of all proportion, much like anything else that the media get hold of.
I do wonder how long this marriage will last. Most of the royal weddings in my memory are null and void now.
