- 'Don't go woke!' Royal experts weigh in on King Charles III"s coronation | Palace Confidential. Plans are starting to emerge about King Charles’s coronation next year, with some concerned that political correctness with triumph over tradition. One sticking point is over whether Queen Consort will wear the famous Koh-i-Noor diamond in her crown. The Mail’s Royal Editor Rebecca English reports that but the paper’s Diary Editor Richard Eden says to bow-down to criticism would be a ‘crazy’ mistake. ‘The Royal Family should not go woke, it’s crazy, if they go down this route, there’ll be no end to it!’ he tells the programme. ‘The Supreme Court of India in 2016 ruled that the diamond wasn’t stolen, it was a gift from India, that was accepted then. So there’s no reason to think there’s a problem with it. It’s part of the Crown Jewels, they have these jewels, it’s part of our heritage, so wear them.’ Our panel also discuss the very modern move made by Mike Tindall, husband of Princess Anne’s daughter Zarah Philips after it was reported that he would join the cast of reality show I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!

What did you think of this week's episode?
Wonderful as always. Jo, not only would I vote for you to be my neighbor, I think you'd make a great monarch. I'd love to see an Aussie on the throne.
I watch so many different places to keep up to date on the royal's but this program is above the rest with keeping it true, and to the point so thank you for your guests that are very informative with information.
Cheers.
🕊️
14' : the lady has got the point. People keep this quaint form of gouvernance for a reason, the pomps and the theatrics!
Beware not to slim down the institution too much!
Stay dignified and appear humble and attentive to the people but keep some objective visibility, otherwise what is the purpose ?!
Going all margaretha of Danemark would be ridiculous, stripping her own son and his wife who served her well and decently from their titles is a major fault.
This episode is quiteinteresting regarding the coronation and mr tindall (who is a big opportunist) although you all look a bit bored and tired, lacking the usual flame.
Richard...you NEED to sharpen up your OBSERVATION SKILLS!!...Harry did NOT have the ER Insignia on his uniform at HIS WEDDING!!....Grrrrrr!🇦🇺
I thought it was great. Diversified, interesting, informing and entertaining. Can't ask for more than that.. well done, indeed. Have a wonderful week ALL ands many Blessings till next time.👍👍👍👍
I'm a year older than Diana was and I never thought William would find a wife who could live up to her as a fashion icon. And he didn't. He found someone who is even better. Camilla may be the new Queen, but Catherine is the new royal fashion queen. She proved that with the gold number she wore to the James Bond premier. She was absolutely stunning.
Diana's fashion is overrated. Many of her clothes are dated, but you can wear what Catherine wears in a 100 years, and it'd still look chic. Catherine is more like Jackie Kennedy.
@@Kezia.G I totally agree. Her look is timeless. Can you tell I loved that gold dress? She really knocked it out of the ballpark with that one.
Catherine knows what suits her... Simple as 👌
@@Kezia.G I agree. Diana was a frumpy until after the divorce when she blossomed. Men were interested in her because of who she had married not for her looks or intellect.
@@anitawilkinson6943 BS!!! You've got this the wrong way around; SHE was the first reason anyone was ever really excited about milquetoast Charles, who couldn't get a picture of him doing anything dashing and really sell it--from being invested with the ping-pong ball crown to sailing away on his first command that saw him promptly out of the Royal Navy! Meanwhile, the first picture of Diana "to go viral" 80s style (as in get printed in publications far and wide, including Newsweek in the US, where as a kid I saw it in one of those collected tidbits-of the-week pages up front) wasn't her standing beside her future ex-husband; it was the one that exposed she wasn't wearing a slip when the sun suddenly shifted as she widened her stance and held a toddler on her hip! She didn't need Charles or William to have every straight male thinking "MILF" from that alone, but then in addition to the way her long legs looked was the way she played those eyes beneath her hats and bangs that read the kind of demure but with comedic timing that you just knew had something more was there, especially with her alternating sparkling smile and pouty model-like expressions that got her lots of magazine covers where no one really cared what she was wearing long before they cared what she was wearing down the aisle!!!!
Honestly, no one cares about more whining from Harry regarding the Queen’s funeral. What gobsmackingly awful manners he has. His wife’s aren’t so wonderful either. They think they’re popular. They aren’t. 💜🇺🇸🌵
They haven't said a word it's you clowns doing all the whining so you can stop lying
I learnt today that the story of William having an affair was started apparently by MM herself, the gossip lawyer put out a blind item about that, no ones sued them over that little nugget, if this is true is a disgrace
Interesting that Princess Anne can travel without major protection--and can carry her own bags! I am also puzzled about the book release, the constant bad mouthing of the family and at the same time PLANNING a year of reconciliation! You really couldn't make this up--first we are going to damage the family as much as we can, then will take a year to reconcile with you!!!! What is wrong with their thinking? Is it just me who finds this ludicrous?
Its the thinking of the narcissist. They say and do whatever gets them what they want. It isn't the thinking of someone responsible for their actions. They will always feel they have been hard done by no matter what you do.
So, after they bash, how do they reconcile?
Say they are sorry for all the bashing?
What sort of apology is that?
L.Dawley takes a bit of madness and self-importance.
It's all money. They trash the RF for money then suck back up to them for more money.
I agree with you.
I don't mind that shortened version, but I would absolutely love to have the full regalia brought out for the coronation. Unlock the royal jewels, shake the dust off the robes, and let's all enjoy this spectacle. This has not happened in 70 years.
I agree, the shorter service works for me but I don't know what the thinking is about the robes. Every year the garter ceremony parades robes around so why not dust them off for the coronation
@@naomania3619 Maybe they're thinking that the Lords is just now full of people who won't know how to behave?
@@annamack5823 I don't think it's the members of the house of Lords that would be invited but the hereditary peers who should know how to behave
I couldn’t agree more
Well as an Irish woman who whole heartedly followed the 10 days of mourning after the passing of QE2 and was blown away by the magnificent funeral I would be so disappointed by a slimmed down coronation. KC hopefully will have at least 20/25 yrs on the Throne which means for myself and many we won't be around to see Prince William and Princess Catherine become king and Queen. ( 😭 ) I know I'm not a British taxpayer but I plan to visit Britain as a tourist again very soon after the funeral. So fingers crossed the coronation will be as beautiful you should absolutely go all out. I'm sure billons will tune in .. show it all off xx
I’m with Richard cut down the time but keep pomp and pagentry, a large majority of us grew up with the late Queen and many didn’t get to see her coronation, I want to see it all 🎉
Totally agree!
I agree with Richard, people do want to see all that pomp and circumstance at The Coronation of King Charles III
Yes! We do!
Yes, show the world of celebrity and woke mob that the royal family is above all that! We need some national pride and encouragement during these hard times. Roll in the golden carriages, the crown jewels and the velvet robs, they need to be seen to be believed (quoting the Queen here).
Totally agree!
Sure but a shortened ceremony sounds perfect. I found the queens funeral to be quite long, honestly
@@graphiquejack The Queen’s funeral at Westminster was only one hour long. Prince George and Princess Charlotte had no problem sitting through it.
Hello Daily Mail Royals ❤. You asked for questions - here is ours - why can’t you have a full hour broadcast - we don’t get enough of Richard - yes - we’re the ones who want to adopt him. 💐
Join the queue, Violeta.
Me too
Yes please. Much more frequent, longer , with more Richard Eden.
ME TOO🤩🤩
@@eshaibraheem4218 Oh dear, oh dear. And we thought we had first dibs so many episodes ago. 😔
Thank goodness no more angry “Dr. Tess” 😅
She sure takes the panel down a few notches. More Andrew please
Love Richard Eden...he should have his own show...we can listen to him for hours as he has so much input...can't have enough of him here
I absolutely agree I always wish to hear more from him
Wear the jewels, wear the robes! Just do it! It is a once in a lifetime occasion! Go woke and lose the mystery and majesty!
I couldn't put it better! Lose the magic and you lose the reason for monarchy.
Perhaps that's the plan in Wokeist circles?
I agree let it be what it was meant to be. Some kids can't even read Dr Seuss now. Because someone had too much time on their hands. We know someone is going to complain but I think the most of us would be amazed.
He may not be there that long!
Wear the jewels and wear the robes but PLEASE don't kill the animals for their fur!
@@vanessagregory8835 bad show!
I don´t understand this debate on Harry and the uniform. The queen took it away from him, how could he get it in her name when she is dead?
Who cares
He quit the service, you don’t wear your uniform once you quit the job.
The Queen always thought it so important to be seen. Look at how the funeral hearse was lit up. She really did find it important for the people she served to see her in life and in death.❤️
I love watching the discussion amongst the panel members. Great models of how to have a civilized debate.
Without that annoying Tessa
@@guitardee1 so true
@@guitardee1 absolutely
This huge blingy diamond . . . the world should be grateful that it is kept in such a safe and secure place where it can be seen and appreciated from time to time.
It was striking to me, watching this montage, that the clothes seem to wear Diana while Catherine wears the clothes. They are both lovely, and it is a subtle thing.
I noticed that the clothes seem to be wearing Diana too, good eye:)
Always enjoy Richard Eden's input.
Did I hear right, Bastia Briggs (whoever she is) just said we have to keep the people of ENGLAND happy. Surely she should have said the people of the UK.
Totally agree I was appalled by her comments
Bring out the jewels. If you put them in a museum -no one gets to see them.
Yes no one, except the 3 million visitors to the Tower each year.
That cuts out how many million watching round the world
An American here. I can understand the shortening of the coronation but hopefully it won't compromise the serious and spiritual nature of the ceremony. I think the peers and their ladies should put on their full regalia for the occasion. I can't understand why you would have such beautiful items for such sacred (and rare) occasions that may come once in a lifetime for the peers . And yes, Queen Camilla deserves the crown as she is now the queen. I agree with Richard Eden; there's always a complainer in the bunch with an axe to grind. You can't please everybody. Ermine are simply short tailed weasels in winter coats and are not an endangered species. But there are some fabulous fake furs on the market if a compromise must be made. I'm looking forward to the coronation. Thank you for your insightful commentaries on the British Royal Family.
oh that british humor...just can't get enough. i laughed so hard my chest almost moved.
Absolutely ❣️King Charles and Queen Camilla! As an Irish woman ( and obviously not a British tax payer ) I would love to see a magnificent Coronation like the magnificent funeral of Queen Elizabeth. Royal Family minus the Harkles is England USP xx
Richard saying people didn’t last 70 years either when ermine robes were mentioned, priceless! 😂😂😂
I feel that taking from the traditional coronation would be almost as detrimental as if the Queen's death ceremonies had been "economized". There's many ways the cost of The Firm's and the BRF can be modernized and made more cost effective but I don't think the Coronation is the time and place.
well said. NOT The time to nickel and dime. Push the Boat Out. Rule Brittania
Maybe the King has a short attention span and that is as long as he can cope especially after the prolonged funeral episode so recently.
The RF has the money to pay for the extras if they wanted to. If it was told to the public that their tax won't be paying for the extravaganza, that they are doing it for the people to see the full ceremony as it doesn't happen often. Just an idea.
@@vanessagregory8835 The Chuch Service Is 4 Hours Long Thats a LONG Time for a 75 Year Old Man and his Queen 2 Hours Tops needs to put in place
@@lesleymcshanemitchell9651 I agrée it is over the top for a 75 year old man and his wife. It is also too long for a good TV show. They need to determine the significant parts and take it from there.
Love your show. Twenty five minutes goes by so quickly! I agree with Richard with regards to the Royal Regalia. It would be wonderful to see Camilla wearing those beautiful jewels with all the pomp and pageantry that should go along with a Coronation.
I hope the Coronation’s pageantry isn’t scaled back too far, I agree with your panel this is History in the making !! Come on Britain 🇬🇧 show us how it’s done !! (plus We’ll probably need cheering up by next May) Love your channel by the way 💕from Canada 🇨🇦
Sorry but Catherine knows how to wear the clothes and she outshines ever the Sainted Diana, Catherine has so much confidence in all the clothes she wears. I love all the female Royal members but when Catherine walks into a room all I can say is Wow.
Absolutely agree with you.
@@Emmajaymusic Almost all of Diana's fashion flops were at the beginning when she was choosing her clothes herself but when she started letting others choose for her the clothes were better.
In 2016 Indian Solicitor General Ranjit Kumar said that the Koh-i-Noor "... was given voluntarily by Ranjit Singh to the British as compensation for help in the Sikh Wars. The Koh-i-Noor is not a stolen object". Should that not suffice?
Ranjit who????
Also adding that the Koh-i-Noor is attached to superstition. It should be worn by female persons only. It is said to bring bad luck to any male owner or male person wearing it.
Some people are always looking for a fight. I agree with you Doris, this should be a done deal !
The provenance of Kohinoor itself is very disputed. It definitely does not belong to India.
@@Kezia.G It belongs more to India than it will ever belong to the firm.
I think Mike's the only member of the royal family who has a chance of doing the "I'm a Celebrity..." show and keeping his and the Windsor's dignity intact. I still don't think it's a good idea--I don't like reality shows, so tawdry--but Mike has a good head on his shoulders, and, as others have said, he's an accomplished man in his own right and not married to a titled, working royal.
He's certainly got good shoulders.
I think he'd be supported in this. What great family fun!
I don’t like reality tv shows. So I hope this doesn’t come back to bite the RF in the backsides
Being titled should have nothing to do with it. He's cashing in and trying to be a celebrity because of who his mother in law is. You're only okay with it because he's white! There's no difference in what he is doing and what Prince Harry and his wife are doing except Prince Harry married a black woman and that's really why he's always criticized. He's trying to make a living off of his married into family for his own fortune. What's next a movie, a book, a Tshirt with his face on it!
@@reneec.venegas6560 What rubbish! Mike is a celebrity in his own right, and one before he met Zara. Not having titles they have to earn their own income. I suspect that you're not British and this is beyond you.
Jo does a great job hosting this show!
I think with regards to mental health and Prince William having suffered getting overlooked most often, it was very telling, when it was William who mentioned that the Queen's funeral reminded him and brought back memories of the funeral of his mother. It was also telling that he did so during a casual statement with a citizen during one of his engagements, instead of during a big interview or speech. It was simply a very authentic statement about his feelings instead of making it into a big deal.
Those two don’t deserve to be invited to the Coronation. It’s unbelievable that no matter what Harry & Megain do and no matter how bad they behave, and no matter how many lies they tell, and no matter how many people they hurt, they would get to be part of the pomp and ceremony of King Charles III Coronation. HOW IS IT THEY ARE NOT HALF IN AND HALF OUT ?
Because his father might want to have BOTH of his SONS there don’t you think. Sometimes parents have to make sacrifices like that.
Maybe they'll hide her face behind a candle again!
@@derekliso1211 The coronation is a state affair. Horrid Henry is a family affair. Not sure how you are not seeing the differentiation between the two? Harry has repeateldy, eyes wide open, sliced and diced his Queen, his country, and his family (not to mention numerous countries around the globe). If KC desires for his reign to be a success, then he must separate the two. You realize that if H is invited, then by default his wife will be attending with him, wearing a tiara? If KC allows this to happen, his reign will effectively be over, and pronto. And rightly so. I've supported the Monarchy for decades. Not that my opinion matters, at all, but I'm giving KC the benefit of the doubt and some breathing room to do what he must know needs to be done to sort out his traitorous son and the swamp creature that slithered into the BRF. God save the King!
I, personally, have as much right to be there as Harry. I stand proudly and sing God Save the King while Harry glared in anger! It is NOT a family reunion!
The montage of the Princesses of Wales was fabulous. Thank you. Two beautiful ladies.
I'm an American who just found your show the week before the Queen's funeral, now I'm an avid fan! Totally agree with Richard on the coronation (if anyone cares what an American thinks), a shorter ceremony is great, but get all the beautiful things out and USE them! Also, I'll take any of you for neighbors! 🙂
Harry and that snake Meghan are running towards your house Hide quick!!!!!
No to murdering the ermine for new robes, and tell that rude woman that Charles is not just king of England, so ill informed
@Tab Ford its time the English were put at the top of someone's list its predominantly our Monarchy at the end of the day
I hope Charles who is so environmental concerned puts a stop somehow to animal cruelty...
I am just going to say that I have had dogs that needed to have their anal glands expressed, so that is not cruelty. Keeping these non domesticated animals in captivity is though.
@@PS_testing321... So, perhaps Palace Confidential will clarify this i.e. it is not animal cruelty
I don't care for those reality shows...I find them demeaning,and certainly below the dignity of a member of the Royals extended family.
Bling it up! Make it as flashy and as extraordinary as possible! People love it! I’m from the U.S. and we love it AND EXPECT it from England. While most of us don’t want a king, not one of us, going to England, would refrain from going straight to “Buckingham Palace” hoping to catch a glimpse! If they try to make it too common it will just BE common. Who wants that?!? No, no, please tell King Charles to make it as fancy as he can.
You don’t want a king yet look what you get every four years as a president. Especially the current one.
Greetings from across the pond from Dallas, Texas, USA! I love this program. It’s the best royal reporting ever.
As an American, I really want to see ALL OF IT! Pretty please!!!! We don't have anything like that here in America so we have to live vicariously through all of you!!! So polish up the gold carriage and that big fat diamond and put it on that sweet Queens head and be proud of it! I do like the idea of maybe having it go to Africa next, after the coronation. I can't imagine that KC3 couldn't come up with some reasonable compromise. Love from America🇺🇸
Since she allowed Harry to marry that woman, I think she'd allow Mike to participate. Harry's marriage is the absolute WORST thing she ever allowed.
Love this panel. Very interactive and interesting topics and now I’ve become addicted to this show 😅.
Basia Briggs why are you talking about England only? Don't Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland count?
Woke doesn’t even deserve a response! It needs to retain it’s dignity and tradition, it’s an important ceremony for Great Britain, and wokeness is just silliness. It can be slimmed down without sacrificing the greatest bits.
Apologies for this suggestion in advance if anyone might be offended. Why not update The Coronation crowns? Use a deep very very dark purple velvet. Replace the tufted cap look with straight lines that would highlight the jewels. Replace the Ermine with the same purple velvet. An updated look for a new Reign.
Sounds like a dogs breakfast what you are suggesting. As I said above, there’s nothing wrong with slaughtering a few ermine every 70 years or so. If it makes you happy yes I am offended.
Love Love Love you guys....What a great program. .All three of you are so cool! I love you Jo and Richard...and Charlotte so great and funny!
I love this tv program. It's great finding out about people and things we didn't know. Fun to watch and addictive. Here in Australia it's a big program and we all love it. Just how brave is he lol.
Good on him, he's gonna have a ball and let's see how far he'll go to to reach the end and be crowned lol😂😁👍
I think it's both fun and brave.
Hahahahaha classic ✌️
Question: What's going to become of Angela Kelley, and what will happen to the Queen's wardrobe and especially her jewelry? Love the show! from Oklahoma
Excellent question. I suppose Angela will enjoy a well earned retirement. I'm confident that HMTQ made provisions for her in her will. The jewels? Who knows? 👐
Perhaps she will stay on as an archivist of the Queen's wardrobe.
@@PS_testing321... Great thought!
Can we stop calling Camilla the queen consort. It goes without saying. She’s Queen Camilla. We’re not morons, we know the difference between queen
monarch and queen consort and don’t need to be reminded every second. Come on Daily Mail, stop acting like a sulky teen.
You're right! We didn't keep calling Queen Elizabeth, Queen Regnant so drop the Consort bit, please!
I don't know the difference nor will I need to know it. A king's wife in any crossword would be Queen. Simple is best.
I thoroughly enjoy your program. It is so nice that you explain all things royal to Americans. You do a wonderful job of dumbing down the discussion so that Americans can understand. Please do a program about the royal properties. I would love to know which are owned by the family versus those owned by the crown. How much do nonworking royals have to pay i.e. Prince Andrew? Does staff stay at each property? With a slimmed down monarrchy, won't there be many empty palaces and houses? Any information would be a treat to those of us across the pond. Thank you in advance for your consideration. Maybe a longer program would accommodate current royal news and a discussion of the properties.

I ❤ your show Jo.
Richard is funny and Charlotte so polite, Rachel is also, just too great!
What about start to “educate” the foreign public regarding the diamond? A strong and constant, over the next months, documented campaign. Short, modern, to different ages, fun; utilise media!
A strategy that will make us feel curious, instead of critical “woke”.
Since the problem involves different cultures, use that! Turn it around-
Richard’s right… I want to see that diamond on Queen Camila. Wow, talk about “soft power”. Greetings from Costa Rica.
The great traditions of England should continue. It's fine to cut back but the people love it all and it would be a shame to go woke. Our history in the US of A is being erased and cancelled, I hope this doesn't happen across the great pond. I'm now living vicariously through British Tradition because it makes me feel wonderful and I feel a part of something ! 🎉💖🎉 It's amazing how everyone comes together to celebrate. Your show is wonderful and thank you !
The Queen Mother chose the styling of her crown why shouldn’t Queen Camilla?
Wouldn’t it be lovely to see the Burmese Ruby rose motif as the centerpiece of a new crown for a new millennium?
There's a reason why its controversial to wear the Kohinoor right now, and its not being woke. The UK government is trying to clinch a trade deal with India, which would benefit the UK economy a great deal, especially after Brexit. And Queen consort wearing a crown with the Kohinoor is just not good optics right now with the trade deal and relations with India.
God Bless William and Kate
Just think of all the embroiderers and other craftspeople who will be employed for a coronation. Support your local artisan! Royal School of Needlework rocks!
I love all the "reliable" TH-cam royal commentary channels but I must say, *Palace Confidential* is the one show I always look forward to. Unless, of course, the unappealing, manic, & tedious Miss TD is a panelist. Everyone else, whatever their stance on the Royals, is fabulous.
Thank you for another great show - you’re the best royal reporting around.
Here, here!
We want all the jewels out, no compromise, this is what this day its all about surely! and I'm NO monarchist!!
Curious choice for Mike Tindall to join a reality show. I hope it won't be a slide down the dignity pole. Between H & M's high profile antics, a lower profile might be better. Lady C isn't part of the royal family.
I agree. I really admire Mike Tindall and how he has managed to balance being connected to the royal family with having his own life and the freedom to do his own thing. He has managed to stay real while maintaining respect and keeping his dignity. Reality shows do not support dignity.
@@janetclaireSays Yes. If they aren't hurting for money, why do it? I don't know their financial situation and perhaps I sound judgmental. The royal family need dignity and a certain amount of pomp to survive.
I agree, this is a bad choice and I'm surprised at him.
He's a man's man, doesn't work for the monarchy so can't damage it, he's the type to get stuck in I think he will do very well
I admire Mike and Zara, as they have been successful in their own careers and behave with dignity. I'm sure the Queen loved having Mike around, as he is a grounded, normal citizen. I just want him to remain dignified, but I am sure he will. He has a lovely wife, three children, and his mother-in-law and Sir Tim to think about in his choice of actions.
Kate is too thin. Why won't somebody address this instead of talking about the Priness's new clothes?
Simple solutions using new, natural, and creative things: Use synthetic ermine and English walnut oil! Design a new crown for Camilla, made by a British jeweler. Richard, you’re a dear, but YOU wear the civit oil on your forehead, and let King Charles wear the right end of something “fresher.” Great show.
No WOKE!!!! Full power please
The montage in the end, Princess Diana is soo beautiful (this word can't even describe fully her true radiance and beauty), everything she wears even in the 80s look soo iconic!
Princess Diana should have been the crowned queen. But you are stuck with Camilla! I bet Prince William will be thinking of that on the day of the coronation.
@@reneec.venegas6560 I like Camilla and happy to see her as Queen. It's odd for you to still think Princess Diana 'should have been' Queen. Did you not read the histories and books? Charles and Diana divorced before she died and Camilla was always Charles one true love and Charles was forced/arranged to marry Princess Diana out of duty to the country (they met a total of 12 times before the wedding). All three of them were in an impossible situation. You need update your outdated views!
@@reneec.venegas6560 Diana had a lovely smile but she could never have been a good queen - she was moody, often sullen, unable to put her personal feelings on hold and "thick as a plank." William loved his mother but he is too smart not to realize her limitations!
As to the New Queens coronations crown , I do agree with Richard but… I think Camilla will wear a different crown and make it her own 🤔
Kind of like from rags to riches, from adulteress to queen. She should wear a new crown.
First time I've stuck around for the photo montage at the end. IMO, in most cases, Catherine wore it better.
To RICHARD EDEN... you seem to have forgotten that now King Charles actually made quip about "perhaps" William and Catherine will eventually move to the "big house" (referring to Windsor Castle... I see it as only fitting now that they are Prince and Princess of Wales and with William,becoming heir to the throne... hardly fitting to cram their family into a house that does not even have room for a nanny...
I think not having room for a nanny is exactly what William and Catherine wanted for their children - as normal a life as possible while they are children.
Why is the 'fashion' sense of royal Princesses 'so' important to the media? Yes many ladies love to 'follow' the fashion choices of Royalty. What we have lost is a sense of respect for members of the Royal family. The Princess of Wales is a 'senior' member of the Royal family and needs to be seen and respected as such. The British Monarchy is an institution that needs to be respected. Yes it is 'traditional' but if it is just regarded as a 'photo opportunity' in order to sell more newspapers, then it has been turned into a 'commodity' and is not being given the due respect that should be given. The United Kingdom is a 'Kingdom. It is not a Republic and as such, the King and members of the Royal family should be treated with respect including by media writers and photographers. Pop stars etc etc are not members of the Royal family.
This is my favorite show on the Royals. I love the discussion and humor as well as very dependable information. Love Jo ❤️ from Pensacola Florida 🇺🇸
It's my favorite show on the royals as well, watching every week in San Francsico!
I think they will miss thé coronation because they have a birthday party😂😂😂😂
We can hope .....
Come on everyone, don’t wipe out history or ignore history. We are our history, face up to it and be honest. A Coronation is unique, I hope and pray it’s not altered to fit the unrealistic whims and over sensitivity of those for whom history doesn’t matter. The King is capable of whittling out the duplications and truly un necessary all by himself alone !! Love your programme, thank you xx
The current Princess of Wales, although 10 or more years older than the photos of the late Princess of Wales is more elegant and more beautiful.
The late princess of Wales had a nose which was too large for her to ever be a classic beauty!
“i’m sure he’s a lovely guy but he himself is no super-model” 😂
He's looking distinguished these days with his beard though
No he is down right ugly but he has ironed shoe laces an has them tied by servant he is a SNOB and witout the butler
He can not exist well God bless it will come the time that all this circus will be just THE HISTORY
Diana was adorable but watching so many photos in quick succession I fear she may have been 'given to moods' - unfortunately. Sometimes joyous, sometimes sullen. Whereas Catherine still shows us the contented child at her father's knee during her childhood in Jordan. Interesting.
Diana was moody and emotionally unstable while Catherine is well balanced. Catherine also has much better taste in clothes and is much prettier!
Regarding the Coronation. Less is more. There is certainly enough bells and whistles that a trimmed down Coronation, less people, shorter, can still be very beautiful and traditional.
I just came across your show a few weeks ago and I really enjoy learning more about GB and the Royal Family. I am looking forward to King Charles' coronation and hope they keep all the pageantry! Please, do not go 'woke'! It's destroying the US. Don't let it destroy GB as well!! 🇺🇸
It’s interesting when listening to William I had the feeling he was referring to Harry suffering, having to face huge changes and having challenges dealing with it, not being prepared how to deal with this situation…..it did not occur to me he was referring to himself…
Saying they want to do edits is being done to boost sales. When the publisher says no then everyone will really want to see what is in there that's so awful.
Camila will love it, the bigger the stone the happier she will be.
I would like to see the full fanfare. If they keep slimming down then they will slowly end up like everyone else, regular people. I don't think they want to go down that path. Everyone in the world, including myself, waits for the big fanfare. And I'm American. I shared the love with my French grandmother. If they take it away, then what's the point?
I agree!
No problem with a shorter Coronation, but please give us the “magic” of Royalty!
It’s an historical event and I am looking forward to it, I am thrilled: please, no disappointment!
I am a Swiss in love with pageantry and British uniforms and robes and coronets.
Surprise, Harry’s Wife is Upset …. TOUGH ✅
Love the idea of a design competition for the robes Richard. Could all Commonwealth artists take part? I'm in with bells on!!!! No bells on the robes though - I promise.
I so hope the Coronation is full of all the pomp and ceremony, as in days gone by.
Our country loves all the Regalia. It won't be the same if its a watered down Coronation.
There is nothing better better than a coming together to celebrate.
Silly. We want the Queen in her crown. Period.
I’m from Florida I’m United States , I love your show. ❤
Isn't this a bit ridiculous when a "friend of the Royals" says that the Royal family has to keep people happy, "and by that I mean people of England". What about Scotland? What about Wales and Ireland? Doesn't it sound offensive towards them?
The lady commentator....as always with the random, eyeorish, remarks. Of course the robes from 70 years ago won't have 'disintegrated', of course they can design something that won't include real ermine. I bet she'd just be happy if everyone wore morning suits....the woman has no understanding of British pomp and ceremony. Latest comment on Camilla wearing the controversial crown, "it's just not Camilla", silly comment. She always focuses on the negative, Eden is much more clued in.
I also hope that the decision isn't taken to leave BP or to make Balmoral a museum. KC will be making a poor choice to abandon the heart of the country.
"Sudden Changes" It's not always about diana!!! Stop it, please. Losing a job, Losing a family member, a sudden change of living arangements, moving across the country (USA here, it's a huge country). Old age, medical stuff! Not everything has todo with Diana.
I am SOOOO sick of hearing about her!
I saw the Queen's coronation in 1953 on TV and I think it would look glorious in colour. It would be a shame not to have the Lords in their (fake fur?) robes placing their coronets on their heads when the King is crowned.
Greetings from California,
I am so amused by all this talk about Archie being snubbed by the coronation being on his birthday. The reality is that no one in the family even has a relationship with the kid. I doubt anyone even gave it a thought. Imagine picking a date based on a kid who has only been seen a couple of times by the RF.
In regards to which PC host I would like to have as a neighbor, Richard wins hands down (only if he is single 😊), if not, Jo gets my vote.
Definitely Richard
"WOKE" Sick to death of this word and the people using it as an excuse and also fueling the constant fire it sparks. I personally would love to see the whole shebang to be honest, I think we as a country and people want it as it is our history, tradition and who we are, its our culture and its grown with each monarch and new age.
The host should post her entire look for every episode. Love her outfits.
Oh for god's sake - USE FAKE FUR!!! Who in the world could ever tell the difference watching it from the crowd or on TV? This is beginning to seem totally ridiculous!
Use fake fur and use coconut oil. Problem solved.
I am astounded that Civet cats are still kept for the properties of their anal glands. This was traditionally an ingredient used in all expensive perfumes, but I thought the practice had ceased. Poor civets.
I was really surprised and think this is bizarre. They couldn’t use something else?
@@cagillo I vote Chanel No.5 Traditional
@@guitardee1 That has no Civet oil? That was my Mom’s perfume. Hope it wasn’t in it back then.
@@cagillo Don't know, don't care. Smells nice. They don't say on the bottle. Anyways, my cat has volunteered in exchange for seat at the coronation for me
The last batch of Coronation Oil was made after the Deanery was bombed in 1941 (I think that was the year) and the oil was destroyed. It's not like they are making this anymore. It was made before the practice was stopped.
I agree the royal family should NOT go woke!
Richard Eden is 100% correct about the Queen Consort wearing the Queen Consort’s crown - she should wear it as it’s part of Britain’s heritage, history, and pageantry. And the Princess of Wales should also wear when the time comes.
I'm just gob-smacked that anyone would consider buying Harry's book.
Bells and whistles amen long live the king
Great show. Great montage at the end. I say wear the Crown Jewels and go for it
Yes and how often does the UK hold a coronation? Please bring out the pageantry be proud of your heritage and history the whole world would love to see it. 😊
The best on royal news. Thank you.
