Did anyone else find themselves giving the commentary as they watched it? 😊 I really enjoyed watching the Troop without the commentary. Thanks for the upload
I'm a Canadian, retired light infantry and the monumental effort required to organize and execute this level of pagentry is breathtaking. Nobody does it better than Britain. GBTQ.
That officer holding the color in the beginning is gorgeous..what a handsome clean cut man in uniform. What a splendid show of highly trained uniformity. Princess Catherine is so pretty and poised. All the royal women looked beautiful in the pale or white dresses. Wonderful seeing Queen Elizabeth together with her husband again…. They are missed. 70 years is a long time. No where else in the world is grander than Britains Trooping the color ceremonial.
I wish that the whole 5 regimental footguards where complete when they are conducting the trooping the colour, just like the old days. And nice video, no commentary. Just pure commands of the officers and the adjuntants and pure music of the massed bands, another great masterpiece of the guards trooping their colour. The flaw never fades, and the dedication commited by this servicemen and women while their conducting the trooping the colour. Salute to the servicemen and women of the british army.

You mean a world with slavery, disease, constant war, and colonialism? It didn’t work then, and it still doesn’t work now. But live in your dreamworld.
Loved this without the commentary. Great music to listen to. Hopefully the BBC can broadcast it simultaneously as the BBC One programme, but on the Red Button stream one day. 👍🎶. Nairac GC - splendid March for a brave Grenadier.
Beautiful pageantry and color. It was a lot better without all the commentary. Somebody is going to have lot of horse shit to clean up and I wonder how many bears had to die to make all the bearskin hats? I imagine there will be a lot of tired people and horses tonight. I wonder if we could put on a show like that? Trump would love to have a show like that if he could sit in the royal box. I loved all the precision marching and the band music. Lowndes Butler
@@lowndesbutler9068. The British Army buys around 100 bearskins from Canada's annual cull of around 20,000 bears. This is to replace skins that are worn out after many years in use. Synthetic alternatives have been trialled recently but they're just not up to the job, especially in the rain.
@@kenUK762 Thanks for the info on the bearskins, I assume they are heavy and hard to keep upright on your head. I read that the reason they were put in use was to make the soldiers look taller to the enemy.
@@lowndesbutler9068 They are suprising light but they must fit you correctly and after several hours on your head in the same position they can give you a headache. You’re right about the original intention to look taller. They originally French in origin but I think it was the Grenadier Guard that defeated the French Regiment and stole their bearskins. Napoléonic times. Edited for autocorrect error !
noticed a minor mistake at 47:23, the lead officer told the Escort to the Colour to advance before commanding the changing of arms. you could see him realise the mistake straight after but recovered well. hope he wasn't punished, and if so not too badly!
Much better without the inane BBC commentary. People want the spectacle, the precision and the music, they want to experience what it is like to be there!😊
I was lucky enough to have found Prince Philip's funeral on BBC Parliament (or maybe BBC4) in a commentary-free version. I hope that will be on TH-cam one day.
Damn that mistake with the change arms and he still manage to carry on and fix his mistake quickly. Can't imagine what would be going on through your mind commanding a massive parade this large scale. Massive respect to all those who serve. I begin my Phase 1 Training Next month. Really can't wait. 😅
@47:31 the officer starts to give the wrong command. Great realisation and fast change to the correct 'Change Arms'. The realisation he was going wrong in front of Her Majesty and the whole world must have been a real sphincter moment. You can see the 'oh bollocks' look on his face! But well done that man - He stopped, gave the correct command and carried on.
That's a march by Thomas Bidgood who hailed from Woolwich, Kent, He is perhaps best remembered for his ever popular Sons of the Brave, another of his compositions. Given the significance the Battle of Vimy Ridge has in Canadian military history, Bidgood's march of the same name has, to some degree, been appropriated by Canadians. While he might even be pleased by that development, the origin of the Vimy Ridge march remains undeniably British to its core.
33:09 Harry doesn’t have any problem sitting near to camilla nor talking to her! He looks quite happy. I wonder what changed his views on camilla and on royal family.🙄

Yep I know and it’s the way the poor guy goes “Shit!” Under his breath and then gives the right order! In fairness though there’s a hell of a lot of stuff to remember And on the day nerves defiantly play a part! Love Tom
My motto for embarrassing moments like this, is: If I don't think I can do a better job myself, then I have no right to judge others for it. And with all the various commands and the nervous tension, I highly doubt I could do better.

The NCO who holds the colour prior to handing it over to the RSM did not fix the bayonet between shoulder and slope, it was fixed already.
Yep I know and it’s the way the poor guy goes
“Shit!”
Under his breath and then gives the right order!
In fairness though there’s a hell of a lot of stuff to remember
And on the day nerves defiantly play a part!
Love
Tom
Yep, saw that.
My motto for embarrassing moments like this, is: If I don't think I can do a better job myself, then I have no right to judge others for it.
And with all the various commands and the nervous tension, I highly doubt I could do better.
I actually find his mistake rather endearing...
Any idea who the sergeant is at 3:17
47:20 did he mess up the order? I saw him grimace halfway through the order: Escort to the Color, will advance by the center... then he changed it to change arms.
is that a mess up or is that on purpose
I just looked at the 2022 one, yup he messed up LOLOL. Interesting to see
One of the last countries left where this is a real tradition, not some re-enactment.
God Save the Queen! Long live the Commonwealth!

Damn, that is a really painful mistake to make.
Who gives the color stergent his gun and when?
Trooping the colour 2014
Wish for the commentary. It so amazing how the band changes the music for the march past.
Here is the version with commentary: th-cam.com/video/LgLppqQb2Pw/w-d-xo.html
i didnt expect a german march would be on the trooping the colour
Greatly improved without the unctuous announcer giving the commentary!
Those of the military have a clear understanding of the work involved to deliver the goods, on the parade ground.
No wonder Britain ruled a third of the World.......no other country could put this military show on...
Yes, we are amazing 🤩
The US military could
@@jtnelson8828 Haven't seen it yet.....
@@alanlane3670 well what I meant was that certainly have the ability to , just not the desire. We have our own traditions for the military, very few involve mass parades like the British though.
@@jtnelson8828 Anyone can say that they have the ability. The British both walk the walk and talk the talk.
1:16:57 whats the name of this song?
Galathia march
1:10:55
this is what i waiting for yeah
What is all the shouting about? At the beginning
Dressing the ranks to a straight line!
God save the Queen, long live the Queen
Cheers dits
Прекрасно обученные бойцы
May I say I never realized before just how much Charles looks like Philip?
Somethings we do get right !
44:27 what happened here?
1:23:20 what do these letters mean E&R
Elizabeth Regina II
@@semajbronson21 thank you
tks
How can they even see out of those bearskins?
How come the sailors are not on the parade? Just curious 🤨
It's an army parade. Household Division and King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery only. The RAF only get involved in the fly past.
It an inspiring parade of beauty
He smiled at the time that he gave wrong order and he looks nervous. I don't know what happen after this but it's really hard to remember those stuff.
Pov: He's seem cute a little as soldier. Whatever it's really hard to see royal guards smile.💛💚💞💘💓
What is the name of the march played at 1:16:58?
Edit: found it. The name of the tune is “Galanthia”
Cool
47:28 (oh fuck, what i had to do? oh yes, change arms) xD
If only they went back to using the Lee-Enfield rifle …
Wow I never seen this
I wonder if the Escort Commander was reprimanded for fluffing his lines.
Bollocked by the RSM, ribbed by the NCOs and bantered by the squaddies and had to buy a few drinks I have no doubt!
What’s the music at 1:07:38
Nijmagen Company March
God bless United Kingdom.
God Save the QUEEN.
Korea US Alliance Forever.
Long live the QUEEN.
I love Jesus and Jesus loves me.
It looks like the bass drummer has an electronic metronome on the drum. The square device you can see is the right size for one.
Im miss trooping the colour bbc commentary 😢
Here you go. th-cam.com/video/LgLppqQb2Pw/w-d-xo.html
How in the world do you get the no commentary version
Via the BBC "Red Button". It currently plays on Freeview channel 601 BBC RB 1. They usually broadcast them at the same time as the BBC 1 version but not this year.
@@davyflute9033 Try and upload as many with no commentary, you'd save all of our ears :D
Coldstreamer19 hello buddy, I love your channel. Thanks so much for your efforts 🙏🙏

It's called Coburg. A slow march by Josef Haydn.
