Prince George is the page who looks exactly like Charles Spencer, the brother of Diana, Princess of Wales.


I watched a few minutes clip of the coronation ceremony and have questions, but I won’t be going to the Today show to find answers to my questions.
I've been watching it on CNN... they seem very much in the know. The thing that really hits home to me is how much King Charles and Queen Camilla looked like fairy-tale stories with the robes and the heavy crowns, and when I thought about it, I am reminded that I was 1 yr old when Elizabeth was crowned. Of course I can't remember it! In 70 years I have NEVER seen a change in the monarchy, which is astounding to me. We in the States have a "changing of the guard" every 4 years. I thought it was pomp and circumstance appropriate for the tradition, and it seems the Brits feel the same way.
