A few dress tips from Servalan would make all the difference.

Funny that.

Servalan's outfit for today would be perfect. And she's not wearing a hat. Hats were not done last time.

I don't feel sorry for Travis at all, despite what R&B say.

Princess Charlotte looks like a Servalan in waiting, though.

Charles is saying "What is The Host?"

Don't normally go for modern church music, but this Kyrie is powerful.

Servalan would look good in a tiara. Unfortunately, it might be difficult to secure one on such short hair.

You've an awful lot of this service to get through before we get to the communion, love.

It would sit on her hair through sheer terror.

If you're going to have a throne, that is it.

I wonder how much of this people from centuries ago would recognise. (The coronation, not Thalia & co).

And actually old, unlike most of the rest of it.

The coronation oaths have changed a lot since the middle ages.

Travisina isn't here either, so I'll give her apologies. Not sure what she's up to but it will involve running errands for other people. She does a lot of that.

Interesting that the Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland says 'sir' and not 'sire'. Slightly cutting him down to size.

Just a bit. There was that important 17th century interlude from which point English moved from Middle to Early Modern.

Reminds me of a toilet door joke to be shared off-forum.

The substance has changed a lot too, though. Swearing to obey the laws (made by parliaments) was a very contentious thing in the fourteenth century, and kings agreed to do it with great reluctance.

Yes, Travis. The Law is an ass.

As in 'It is noted,'?

Having said that I don't feel sorry for him (and I don't), his subsequent actions do make a lot of sense in the light of this stitch-up.

Exactly. He's completely reprehensible, but his subsequent actions make a lot of sense. A military man brought down by the thing he lived and ate and breathed. Nasty.
