he is a lucky man thats all i can say
im quite looking forward to this in a not like me kind of way
 
I will probably watch it, growing up as a kid and living in Essex with family in London we always used to visit all the sights to do with the Royal monarchy, my mum was heavily interested in the Royals and I kind of grew up with it, I joined along the thousands of people who stood on the street and watched Princess Diana's coffin be carted to its final resting place.

Plus its generally on in the morning to mid afternoon where I will probably most likely be in my house

In addition I think that Harry and Wills and Kate seem to be so down to earth if you take the time to watch some of the TV doc's they have been on.

Missed the Charles and Di wedding so would be interesting to see how things are done.

I'm going to be watching, it's likely to be one of the biggest official events in my lifetime. I'm not usually a royals fan but it's not everyday you get to see a royal wedding.
 
I'll admit that I have very little interest in this, but it's easy to understand why some people are excited. My local paper trotted out a double page spread of very old people waving the union flag and looking thrilled to still be alive, pretty much every female I know in Kent has suddenly become all gushy and their fellas are looking nervous. Should be a good day for some.
 
Will try and watch it from 10. Looking forward to watching the Flyover as well. I think it's a great occasion and one I'm happy to get behind. Though, I am meant to be going to a party for it so I may be hammered by 11...
 
Will watch the ceremony, but I doubt I will be glued to the TV for the extensive coverage.

Missus wants to take the kids to the street party as well.

I am praying for rain. :D
 
The world's interest in the Royal Wedding highlights why the Royal Family is important. Delegates from all corners of the world will be attending. Not only is this event important for our economy, it is important for our relationship with other countries.
 
I'm on a stag do in the Lake District all weekend so won't be watching.

I'm not a big royal family supporter but I think the idea of a grand national occasion is a nice reason to get involved and I would've quite liked to have attended a street party in London or something.
