Well....with a twist. I have no interest in two rich people getting married with my tax money. this may seem strange as they are my royal family but sometimes i feel that the royal family are more popular outside of the UK, like the US for example.
This led me to think of international time differences. So if you are looking forward to watching the Royal wedding what time do you have to stay up to? Or are you setting your alarm to get up in the middle of the knight?...sorry..night.
is anybody outside of the UK settling down in front of the telly to watch the wedding?

You're right! They getting married with your tax money! Stop paying the taxes and go to a honeymoon with your partner and if somebody tells you something, show this point :D Weird, I don't know you, but I would be able to do something like this hahaha
In my country is transmitted at 5:00 AM, and I will see the wedding just because my sleeping is like cr.ap, so, I want to change my sleeping routine and I will rise this early to then, can sleep early and like a baby that night and hopefully, change my sleeping routine.

I went to bed early last night, and set my alarm for 4:30 am to get up for the ceremony. My friend who works early am, brought over some coffee and breakfast so we could watch it. The only thing is that I missed the second kiss. Oh I am middle working class Canadian and do not resent the Rich or wish they were poor as you do.. At east they loved each other and that William was allowed to marry, not what it was with his father and Diana.

It was once in a lifetime opportunity and I did not want to miss it. Of course the rest of the day, I was not myself, forgetting things, but worth it. And I finally did get to see the second kiss, but I did wish it would have had a little more passion.

Yes. Far too many topics on the royal wedding. Watch out ajk111 - Admin is looking. Now about watching the proceedings, I was glued right from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m.waiting patiently for the balcony kiss (es),India time and must admit BBC did a swell job of that.

Talking about commentators they were more into describing what each one wore making it look more like a fashion parade of sorts. Actually the bride's mother never wore a powder blue it was more of a grey - so much for men's knowledge about colours. Never mind! (lol)

the BBC seemed to give saturation coverage of the entire proceedings including having an on the spot roving reporter hiding behind the portaloos outside buckingham palace so they could jump out on Prince Phillip and have a quick word when he went for a pee! (just kidding!)

Hi ajk... The first line you wrote burst me into laughter. Ya, you are right! they are getting married with citizen's tax money.lol
I don't know why but i am quite excited to see Kate in her bridal gown. I have been hearing all this news about the wedding like the cake, guests, gowns, royals and all related stuff that is making me enthusiastic towards the wedding! The wedding will be previewed live on Youtube.If you want the link, it is here for you: www.youtube.com/theroyalchannel?feature=yoodle
Here in Austrlia, the wedding will be on at 7:00pm, so that is not bad. I'll cook the dinner by 7:00 and watch their wedding. It better not be boring!

I will stay up and watch it until I get too sleepy. I'll record it so if I fall asleep I can watch parts that I missed.
I wasn't going to watch when I thought I'd have to get up at 4AM. Turns out I just have to stay up until 1AM and that's not hard to do. I mostly want to see the dress. The more I watch the news, the more sucked into the drama I get...:)

Old ladies in my house want to see the dresses.This is why they are ready to watch the entire ceremony.They will be able to see "the wedding of the century" at 10:00 am.I do believe that royal family are more popular abroad just like Obama is.Things look better from afar.Tomorrow there will a discussion: have you seen it?Be patient.

Im sick of this wedding i cant wait for it to be over. I dont know why all they talk about on the news is this wedding how is it going to help us or affect us it wont so its useless. I dont know why any american cares about it either. And depending on when it actually is i might tune in curious to see how extremely rich people get married lol

Well to tell the truth I actually am interested in seeing the royal wedding since they are royalty and all and I think that is pretty cool. I am guessing that their wedding is going to be a huge one because they are royalty. I wonder if they really do love each other though. Don't really know what time it will air here, but I guess if I miss it I can always watch it on youtube to see it all go down.
