The Coronation of King Charles III

[gossipgal21]

Why is the throne that way? No one can see?

Is it not because the coronation is really meant to be a divine thing between king and God traditionally speaking, so it’s not really done for an audience, they’re just there as a witness to it really. Can only assume that’s why.

Anyone think he suddenly looks a lot less happy than he did earlier?

Probably because he knows he now looks like an extra in Joseph

My partner is adamant it’s a Ukrainian flag on the floor of Westminster abbey!

I doubt it - why would we have such a political statement about a foreign country when the Royals are meant to be above politics?

 

[InkHeart]

He looks tearful, I think?

 

[Shesaidwhat?]

Is Camilla ok?

 

[stardust21]

I didn’t realise I’d spend so much time watching a sword today…

 

[FenellaTheWitch]

Penny Mordant has a bigger role than the PM.

 

[qwikti]

the Byzantine chant is good, but wish they wouldn’t talk over it, it’s discombobulating me

 

[BigMavis]

Is Camilla ok?

Needs another half diazepam probably

 

[mooseknuckle]

Oh no she’s got the sword back

 

[bubbadabut]

Penny looks like an air hostess on Olympic Airways but I am here for it

 

[Scragbags]

Penny Mordant has a bigger role than the PM.

I might have missed amongst the thread but is there a reason she was chosen for the role?

Bless him! My 5yo certainly wouldn't sit on her arse this long.

 

[Shesaidwhat?]

I’d be fuming if I was Penny, having to stand with the sword all that time and Charles has it for two minutes and hands it back “nah doesn’t go with the robe have it back”

 

[laughing]

Part of her role within the Government

 

[sourlemon]

I reckon that was just a bag of chocolate coins

 

[SpindleWhorl]

I think Penny is looking banging, MILF

 

[FrostyChops]

Is Camilla ok?

She looks like she doesn't know what's going on. I mean l think she might be pissed

 

[FenellaTheWitch]

Prince William looks emotional.

 

[elliebee27]

Penny's arms are the hero of the day

Camilla looks so tired. I wonder if it's true she hurt her back.
