Avoiding the wedding of the century : Comments

By David Rowe, published 29/4/2011

The royal wedding will be a tripartite celebration of the types of global media spectacle, but will the ending be happy?

I,m pissed, it's interfearing with the live telecast of the footy. Go the broncos!

Surely the wedding can be on fox, so those who wish to watch it can and those who don't wish to can go about their usual friday night.

The ABC or even SBS may have been an alternative, only they obviously decided it was not worth it.

Interesting to note the 500+ police officers. I woner who pays that bill!

The peasants lining the streets cheering and carrying on, one does wonder why they do it, when it is all boiled down these people are the same as the peasants, they do the same oblutions only with a Royal tag, they are extremely wealthy, we only have to go back to Zar-ist Russia when they with their diamond studded chairs paraded in front of the millions of peasants who were there waving and cheering the same, but we know what happened to them in the end, down the well all shot up, the peasants fortunately woke up in the end.
We are conned in paper talk of the money being given to charities but think of the millions that could have been given to the poor of the world rather than all the glitz of a Hollywood movie for the chosen few. Britain may be raking in millions from the peasants who are now buying all of the junk of this hyped up wedding. When will we ever learn, or do we feel these are "God's" chosen people to reign over all of us peasants, I don't think so.

If you have women in your family, you don't have a snowball's chance in hell of avoiding the wedding.

The author is so thoroughly disinterested in the wedding - Apart from the fact that, as a Professor of Cultural Research, he makes a living out of being interested in such events albeit in a disinterested kind of way and writing articles about it.

My interest lay purely in curiosity as to whether I could determine via the observation of facial expressions, eyes and body language, if both William and Kate genuinely love each other David.

I picked up a few bits and pieces through body language that were interesting.

I also realised by the end of the wedding ceremony a couple of things despite not being a mind reader.

Kate has identified, believes and upholds the positive values/work/roles that the Royal Family have attached themselves to for generations, and is a serious determined and motivated young woman, in continuing work and raising the integrity and profile of the Royal Family for future generations, while adding to the line.

In all probability, more than William.

One of the expressions caught on camera which I believe had nought to do with Kate's wedding vows and William.
