    Do you notice how the women in the Abbey are completely, formally attired, in long, white gloves? It's the gloves that make the difference from a nice appearance to a grand personal presentation. Nothing else could do the same job.

    I celebrated my 9th birthday by watching the Coronation with my family at a neighbour's house. We all huddled round a B & W tv with a 9 inch screen. Afterwards the children of the two local parishes were invited to take tea and cake at the home of the Lord of the Manor. Simple pleasures on a never to be forgotten day.

    This was long before video. It was filmed in colour on movie film to be edited and shown in all the Commonwealth Countries. It was flown here to Canada and shown in theatres only 2 days later! This was a seperate film from the black and white BBC television recording. It's narrated by Laurence Olivier.

    I noticed how if a woman takes on the title of queen, her husband continues to have the title of prince. But if a man takes on the title of king, his wife's title changes from princess to queen. Why is there a change in title for the king's wife, but not a change in title for the queen's husband ?

      The rule of hierarchy. If the woman is the highest sovereign of the couple, her title (as Queen) remains above that of her spouse. Here, it would be prince (or duke). A king has a higher rank than a queen with all other things being equal. So, if there is a king and a queen, the king (male heir) is the higher sovereign; if there is a queen and a prince/duke, the queen is the higher sovereign than her consort.

    • @estefaniagarciaequihualapa8927
      @estefaniagarciaequihualapa8927 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Because when the monarch is a ruler queen, she is obviously the one who governs. And when a woman marries a king she is called queen but she can't rule or anything even nowadays which is sad... You shall read about real great ruler queens like faraoh Hatshepsut, Queen Christina of Sweden, etc. A pride for us women.

      Hannah Dare - Gentile I think they consider the King to be the ruler and the queen to be his wife. If a woman sits on the throne, her husband will be called a consort in order to not confuse people(since the crown has landed on her head not the husband's).

      Actually I think immediately behind Princess Margaret is Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester (The Queen's uncle) accompanying his sister Princess Mary, the Princess Royal. Then behind them is the Duchess of Gloucester with her two sons on either side, Princes William and Richard of Gloucester. The Kents would have been following them, but we got a shot of a stained glass window instead at that point.
