Did You Watch the Coronation?


Yay or nay?

I realized it's basically "grand spectacle" - centuries old entertainment before TV. After each oath, dramatic music played. Most of the coronation was a music concert. The important people wore capes.

I believe only France would've been able to compete with British pomp and ceremony if they hadn't guillotined their royals.

I couldn't help but think about Diana spinning in her grave especially when Camilla was crowned.

I watched it, but now I'm curious to see Queen Elizabeth's coronation for comparison.
