The whole event , which was impeccably respected by the trooping and the audience who lined the parade was I feel stained by the sight of that one prince following the coffin .
Did not enjoy the viewing when his apperance came on my tele .

Great effort by the organisers and the planners for such a broadcast too .
 
Avoided it all day and watched the hour long edited highlights in the evening. What I don’t understand is why Harry wasn’t allowed to wear military uniform. Leaving aside his not wanting publicity but seeking it at every opportunity he’s done two tours of Afghanistan so to me he’s entitled to wear the uniform. In fact he’s much more entitled to wear military uniform than Charles as far as I can see.

Hopefully normal life can now resume.

Only Harry and Andrew have actually served in a war zone. Harry can’t wear one because he’s technically left the Royal Family, Andrew for other obvious reasons.

It doesnt fit any more?
 
Putting aside their other issues the two that have served the military in a war zone aren’t allowed to wear military uniform whilst those who have never done so are allowed to wear it.

It’s such a load of utter bollocks.
