I thought it was lovely, he was so full of happiness/relief everything went off well, saw the length of carpet and could not resist. It was a day of happiness for all.

I loved it, Gods house after a 'religious' event and a man so happy he does cartwheels? Maybe if we were all that spontaeneous when things went right, it would spread a little joy to others? ( imo also lol) xx

Well I think the telling off was well deserved. There is a time and place for everything and that wasn't it....in my opinion of course.

I think he has had a telling off for it which is a pity.
Yes Catherine bowed her head when William saluted.

I didn't notice this at all - it was only when I read on here (lol)

What I did notice was Catherine bowing her head every time her husband saluted.

Here is the Verger cartwheeling (didn't see that either) (lol)

I didn't see the verger or policeman & I know I didn't nod off! But I did see the runaway horse - hope he didn't get a telling off for that - he gave us a good laugh. Rewound it a few times just to make sure I wasn't imagining it. He even had a few lines in the papers yesterday. Anyone else see him?

I watched the wedding but did not see the verger or the policeman I must have nodded off :-(

Wasn´t that verger a joy to watch. Clearly so relieved that it was all over without a hitch.
Understandable.

Oh wasn't the Verger's cartwheels a sight to behold Chris! And yes, that ONE single policeman directing a crowd of thousands upon thousands of people, bought a tear to my eye. I loved it!

the verger cartwheeling down the red carpet after the service and the policeman in front of the crowd walking down the mall, everytime he lifted his arms up there was a huge cheer so he did it several times!
