Guess Who Is Going To The Coronation

[smurfchops]

And and Dec. This is getting ridiculous. And didn’t invite Mountbatten’s daughter. what a farce.

[Zacs-Master]

Ant and Dec have been goodwill ambassadors for The Prince's Trust since 2021.

I can't comment on Mountbatten's daughter. Security risk, maybe?

[naomi24]

This is why.

Damn, I hope they're not near me!

Lady Pamela Hicks doesn't mind a bit. She is quite elderly and in a wheelchair so perhaps it's quite a relief to her not to have to attend.

Tora, have you been invited in recognition of your sterling Diplomatic work on Answerbank?

[ToraToraTora]

No Zac, I have other connections.

[Zacs-Master]

Say no more. Nudge nudge. Wink wink.

Nice story in that link about Kelly Jones. I know someone who's going to the coronation due to her charity work - lucky thing. I can't wait to hear all about it.

Have Philip and Holly got the invite, or will they just attend as part of the press?

The Leader of Sinn Fein is going, ie the IRA will be represented and not Mountbatten's daughter. Why are the Beckhams going, a footballer who won nothing on the international stage and his Mrs?

[MissTerious2]

OMG that's all I can say. I'm surprised they're not the commentators! Littletwerps.

[ichkeria]

I'm not a fan of Ant and Dec, but they deserve to be there as far as I can see.
As for "the leader of Sinn Fein": Michelle O'Neill, who I also would not vote for btw, is going as First Minister designate of NI: she realises as such that she is representing all the people of NI and so ought to go, so well done her.

[MissTerious2]

Yes, I've just read Naomis post so I agree Ich.

[Ken4155]

One of our local 'celebs' is going so, if i decide to go, i might have a lift:-)

fewer attendees, and even Lady Pam said she cd understand

[Peter Pedant]

calm down Ken
Bishop Mick is going qua bishop and not because he knows there the good white stuff is to shove up Harry's nose

be fair

Tora, have you been invited in recognition of your sterling Diplomatic work on Answerbank?

yes! bridge builder etc but he turned the invite down on the grounds that he didnt want to divert attention from the real Star of the Show

All this to go and see KC & The Sunshine Band....

[MissTerious2]

I would hate to go. It would mean wearing a dress and a hat.
