Are you watching it here in Thailand on the BBC? The wife has been glued to the tv for days, same watching the crown,i know we lived in the UK a long time but i cant believe how much she loves this pagentry

Yes, not all of it because I’m a bit busy right now, but tuning in and reading the ‘quality’ reports.

 

I don’t mean in any sense to offend the solemnity of the Queen’s funeral when I say I’m also very much looking forward to the crowning of King Charles III.

 

Sad as these moments are, we are privileged to witness these events.

Absolutely amazing, our armed forces are incredible.

Yes, watched the funeral from start to finish yesterday on the BBC. Unlike the OP's wife, mine and her family were seemingly indifferent. But there again they are also seemingly indifferent to similar events here in LOS.

 

Yesterday brought back poignant memories for me of Princess Diana's funeral in 1997, which I was able to experience in person in London where I was living at the time.

The Crown is great. A lot more entertaining than the real thing!
