The Royal Wedding

Was thinking the same thing!

It's worked out well for the BBC to have George still out in Afghanistan

Will we get a national days Holiday?

The interview with Willy and Kate was also shown on Living (and is currently being shown on Living+1) complete with Sky News graphics.

What other channels showed it at 7pm?

ITV2 were showing bits of it too - I take it QVC didn't lol!

My guess on channels televising it next year.

BBC1
ITV1
Channel 4
Five
LIVING
Channel One
Sky1
QVC
Ideal World

Sit-Up channels

Fox News

At a rough guess. David Dimbleby anchoring some of the BBC's coverage. Alastair Stewart for ITV. Kay Burley - Sky News.

I'd imagine they're too busy getting ready to sell the cheap souvenir tat.

I doubt it. Their role is to give an alternative to the other channels.


This channel will have closed down by next year.

CNNI (no surprise really)


Can't see why the BBC would put a non-political event on BBC Parliament


Why would sports channels show the wedding. Sorry we've cancelled Soccer Saturday to show you a royal wedding ... Can't see it happenning somehow


Can't see a business channel doing their own coverage, but suppose CNBC taking NBC or MSNBC coverage is possible


Dermot or Jeremy maybe? (hoping)

BBC Parliament showed original coverage of the Queen's Coronation on her Golden Jubilee in 2002.

They also repeated the funeral of Princess Diana on the 10th anniversary of her death in 2007.

Little point in them broadcasting something that will be on at least two other BBC services though.

Despite their minor if not absent role in today's society, the royals are technically political. Theoretically the Queen could dissolve Parliament.

Going back to this. Did all 5 terrestrial channels show Princess Diana's Funeral?
