Everyone did a splendid job.

The King looked utterly bereft at Windsor. I wonder if he'd rather have had the option of "funeral private, no flowers please, donations to charity".

Of the THREE bearer parties, the first had next to no time to prepare. It is reported that one of the lads was only a month out of basic training. And what an honour for the young Fijian soldier. He will be lauded in his homeland 'til his dying day. Unless he marries an American actress.

But didn't the Scottish actress do well in Edinburgh? (Watch "Rob Roy") When you're singing alone there's no room for error. And the Queen's piper too.

Mahogany Bob. Fully agree. There is a time to set differences and protocol aside.
