I'm assuming none of you have heard, hasn't really been publicised, quite a low key event I believe - just a few friends, but there is a Royal Wedding on Friday (Prince William & Kate Middleton) in London.

Who's excited? According to the BBC, 2 BILLION people will watch the live stream of it at some point. 1/3 of the world will be watching the British Royal Wedding. I think it's great!

Fortunatley, I live in Bristol, England, so about 3 hour drive from London. So i'm going up and staying there with my bro to watch it in person! Really looking forward to it, though i hope a) the weather is nice and b) there aren't any 'incidents' (terrorists and all that!)

Who else is excited? Everyone going to watch it?

The girl is actually very pretty. Its just too bad she's marrying a dude who looks like a balding moose.

I couldn't give two s$%* about the royal wedding. I mean I pay taxes therfore im paying for the wedding and im not invited WTF. Anyway I hope nothing stupid happens on the day (terrorists) and everything goes smoothly. Only good think about the royal wedding is that we get a bank holiday which equals no school. :D

How much coverage has it had in the US and generally outside the UK? UK TV is obviously very centered about this, but I'm interested to know how much it is shown/talked about outside the UK...

To quote verbatim a beautifully-written comment on /sci/ about the subject: 'Inbred social parasite to wed skanky Nouveau Riche; nation of snaggletoothed alcoholics waits with bated breath.'

Because it's been declared a bank holiday, I now have to work that day. Oh no, that means I'll miss it! What a massive shame.

The US networks were hyping it up but then they realized that people in the US really don't give a **** for the most part so they're starting to cancel some of the TV programs they had planned.

(Which is a good thing, I have no idea why anyone in the US should care about this)

I have absolutely no reason to care about it. I don't live in that country and it has no effect on me.

I'm not tuning in! 1. I will be in class. 2. This whole thing is overrated! 3. The Prince is ugly! 4. The only reason why they are getting so much attention is because the Prince is the son of the late Princess Diana.

Er...I think it's more that he's the heir to the throne than who his mother is.
