Royalty

from platy jubes to statey funes
what a rollercoaster year

It's the ultimate example of slow television. It makes that Norwegian train one feel a bit frantic by comparison

Love that Norwegian train one!

Is that the same one I'm thinking of? Shot from a driver's POV going through snow-covered uplands?
I love that.

Apparently leaders have been asked to arrive on commercial flights and they’ll be bussed in from west London pick up point (on the A40?).
Biden is coming with the First Lady. He’s not getting the bus. Trump is not coming (not enough places for former presidents) but the Obama’s may get a personal invite rather than a former presidential one.

has trump not had his passport confiscated anyway?

He got them back it seems…

Tbh if there was GUARANTEED no queuing and it was an open casket, I’d go take a look.

The crowed is so white

A product of all that staying indoors frothing at GB News from behind the Daily Mail, perhaps?

The royals look absurd in their uniforms but what are the medals actually for?
Harry, who doesn’t get to wear a monkey suit, fought twice in Afghanistan and did 10 years in the army. The nonce worried sheep in the Falkland’s. So fair enough.
But how did general Chuck and admiral Anne get theirs ????

Most are “Orders Of Mummy Loves You Very Much”

The sections of the queue o saw on my cycle back were extremely jovial, lots of smiles and laughing as people travelled along. No doubt sharing funny queen anecdotes. Have any of you heard the one about the American tourists who met the queen hiking in Scotland but had no idea it was her?

prince edward who was in training( 4 months ) to be a Royal Marine officer which he failed. He was only ever a recruit.*

*not fact checked

must have been an adventure filled heroic 4 months to get all those gongs

No need, it's out there already

What self-respecting British person wouldn't be beaming ear to ear at the thought of a massive queue

extremely jovial, lots of smiles and laughing as people travelled along.

This sound awfully close to revelling.

the period of reminiscing and telling tales of " THE QUEUE " will probably outlast King Charles

Although the scenery was not as spectacular as the Norwegian one surely was (I've not seen it),
the BBC did a similar thing with no commentary on just a regional bus service in Yorkshire, that if you just turned onto it by accident you were wtf and waiting for a crash or something epic to happen, or even anything to happen, but obvs it never does, but was strangely transfixing..

Honestly, I’ve seen them all. Big into this genre. It’s all filth.

" THE QUEUE "

A great James Herbert book alongside The Rats
The Dark and
The Fog

The culture secretary has said the government are working to help people in The Queue by working with various groups including the Samaritans

Is queueing that bad?

If its this bad at this stage of proceedings, people are really going to lose their shit at The Resurrection, when the lizard queen regenerates, bursts from her tomb, bites the head off Charles and reclaims her throne.

Apparently preparations in place for if the queue exceeds ten miles long, jeepers
