TBH the remake would be fine as a bog standard, F&F style, Hollywood action/driving movie if only they hadn’t called it ‘The Italian Job’. It’s got a solid cast and some decent action scenes.

sadoldgit Posted 6 May, 2023 Share Posted 6 May, 2023 I have missed the reasoning behind this, but how come the old trout has been crowned Queen when she is Queen Consort?

Why had “Consort” been dropped and why was Philip not a King and just a Prince? It is at the gift of the incoming Monarch. I suspect that there is a bit of a snub aimed at the old Queen, as she said Camilla should be 'Consort'. However, the wives of the previous 3 Kings were crowned as Queen, but I suspect that with Prince Philip there would have been an issue with the perception that a 'King' outranks a ' Queen' - Albert was never King alongside Victoria, and Queen Anne's husband remained a Prince in his own right but did not become King alongside her. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badgerx16 Posted 6 May, 2023 Author Share Posted 6 May, 2023 (edited) Remember folks, this is the abbreviated Coronation.

There are plenty of examples through British history where the hereditary link jumps the rails: William 3rd succeeding James 2nd, George 1st following Queen Anne despite being somewhere around #57 in the line of succession, even Victoria following William 4th. Not to mention who could muster the biggest army, here William 1, Richard III, Henry VII spring to mind, and many others benefited by this method…..

spyinthesky Posted 7 May, 2023 Share Posted 7 May, 2023 Must admit to being a bit conflicted on the Coronation. Some of it looked similar to a Disney cartoon and I was given an admonishment from the wife for not watching the church service. However I found myself wiping away a tear watching the return to the Palace with the colour, the marching and the music which, by any measure, showed how good us Brits are for this type of historical display.

We might be rubbish at most thing but still lead the world when it comes to this pageantry malarkey. The only thing that spoiled the day was that old women following the King around all day and even managed to blag a crown of her own. The 3 cheers from the servicemen was very moving.

spyinthesky Posted 7 May, 2023 Share Posted 7 May, 2023 Just finished watching the concert from Windsor. Thought it was very well done. Very much a soul boy me but thought Take That brought the evening to a very rousing finish. The Military Band and the backing singers were top rate too. Tip to the Royal Family, you have got to lose the wooden attempts at dancing but fair play for giving it a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
