Royal Wedding: Talkback thread.

I watched on Yahoo! so I had to put up with Barbara Walters' mispronunciations and way too much talking in general. Why do people feel that every stretch of silence must be interrupted?

I wonder how fast the knock-off earrings will be available. In the detail shots you can actually see the little acorns.

My mom commented on how distressed Carole Middleton looked. I suppose this really brings home the fact that her firstborn is all grown up. And if you think about it, it's almost like they're losing her. Won't be any more popping by unexpectedly. Security will be necessary and visits will probably have to be scheduled. Michael and Carole probably won't have as much input into naming the grandchildren as they would have had if Kate had married a non-royal. Their little girl belongs to the whole world now. She will be queen, and she will likely be the mother of a king or queen. I can't imagine watching my little girl embark on such a challenging and demanding course.

My husband said that baldness in men comes from the mother's father. If you remember Earl Spencer (Diana's father, not brother) was sort of bald. Harry is also getting a bald spot, it was quite obvious during the wedding. William kept his pretty much up until 2 years ago, so we should see a difference in Harry by 2013.

Does Princess Bea take the silly hat prize?

Yeah, she wins. Too much eye makeup, and that colour is all wrong for her. Whoever picked that outfit for her must hate her. There was someone else with a blue crescent sprouting out of their forehead.

I kid you not! I figure someone hates both Bea and Eugenie- both wore outfits that were spectacularly unflattering- no wonder they look so glum

If I remember correctly the woman with that hat is Harry's on/off girlfriend.

I just saw the back of William's head, I hadn't realized his hair loss was that bad!

For anyone wanting a bit of hat fun, this website has pictures of the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to the various wedding hats (including the nefarious blue crescent)
