About the Coronation: Proof that Harry went straight to the airport
Guess whose surly scowl isn't in the BBC's coronation documentary!
Around the 70-minute mark, there are scenes of the royal processions returning to Buckingham Palace to a warm welcome and great cheers from the extended families and close friends. Take a look at who was there...
Tumblr media
The lady in blue in front of Princess Michael and the lady in a white coat both look famliar to me, but I'm having trouble placing them. I believe the young man hovering over Mike's right shoulder is Earl Snowdon/David Linley's son (Princess Margaret's grandson), but I'm not sure so he didn't get a nametag.
Update! (12/29/23) The lady in blue is Sophie Tollemache, wife of Edward Tollemache, who I believe is the man to her right that's cut off in the image. Edward is one of Charles's godsons and Edward and Sophie's son Ralph (in the foreground above, with the blue arrow aross his head) is one of Charles's pageboys. The reason she is familiar to me is because of her dress. It is by Beulah London and is the same dress that Beatrice wore to the Platinum Jubilee Service of Thanksgiving (which Sophie Winkleman wore in fuchsia and which The Princess of Wales also has in blush and with short sleeves.)
Tumblr media
That's Mike Tindall with the medals on his chest standing next to Jack. You can't see it well, but Eugenie is the dark blue feathers blocked from the camera by the page boys and Zara is the light blue hat with blonde hair in the back.
Now, you know if the Sussexes knew the royals were filming a documentary for the coronation, Harry would've pushed himself to be front and center of everyone, and he probably would've stepped out to greet his darling papa with a hug and a kiss for the camera. I mean, the guy didn't push through chairs at the Commonwealth Service for nothing!
So, many thanks to the BBC for finally putting to bed the "when did Harry really leave for the airport" speculation. After all, there were competing narratives at the time of the coronation:
Harry's PR: Harry went to Buckingham Palace to see his father and have lunch with everyone, then he went to the airport.
Royal Reporters: Harry left for the airport immediately after the coronation service.
(Meghan co-signed with Harry's PR but then once the royal reporters began writing that Harry left immediately after the service, she started putting out 'Harry left immediately after the service to be home for Archie's birthday party' PR.)
Now we know. The royal reporters' version is correct. Harry went straight to the airport from Westminster Abbey.

Kate Middleton and Prince William will be out and about on Easter morning. The Prince and Princess of Wales will attend the royal family's traditional Easter Sunday church service at St. George's Chapel in Windsor this weekend, Kensington Palace confirms to PEOPLE. This Easter will be the first without Queen Elizabeth and the couple's first time attending the service as the Prince and Princess of Wales.
Last year, Prince William, 40, and Princess Kate attended the Easter church service with Prince George, 9, and Princess Charlotte, 7, marking an event debut for their two elder children. Their youngest, 4-year-old Prince Louis, didn't tag along — but he adorably made his first walk to church at Sandringham on Christmas Day in the year children will join them this year.
The service at St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle will be bittersweet for the royal family. This Easter marks the first without Queen Elizabeth, who died in September at age 96, and her funeral was likely the last time the family was at St. George's Chapel together. Following a sombre state funeral at Westminster Abbey and committal service at St. George's Chapel, Queen Elizabeth was buried in the King George VI Memorial Chapel. She was laid Philip, King George VI, Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother and sister Princess Margaret.
As the royal family continues to grieve their late matriarch, plans are in motion for the coronation of King Charles and Queen Camilla on May 6. Following nearly a thousand years of tradition, the service will see Charles, 74, and Camilla, 75, crowned by the Archbishop of Canterbury. Though Charles immediately became King upon his mother's death in September, the religious ritual marks his formal commitment to the monarchy. On Tuesday, Buckingham Palace released an exciting list of details about the big day. Along with a new portrait of the King and Queen Consort and a first look at the official invitation, courtiers also confirmed line to the throne will serve as a Page of Honor alongside Queen Camilla's grandsons, Freddy Parker Bowles, Gus Lopes and Louis Lopes. As part of a group of eight, the boys will process together through Westminster Abbey.
"Throughout the Coronation Service on 6th May, Their Majesties will each be attended by four Pages of Honour. The Pages will form part of the procession through the Nave of Westminster Abbey," Buckingham Palace said. "The King's Pages of Honour will be His Royal Highness Prince George of Wales, Lord Oliver Cholmondeley, Master Nicholas Barclay and Master Ralph Tollemache. The Queen Consort's Pages of Honour will be Her Majesty's grandsons, Master Gus and Master Louis Lopes and Master Freddy Parker Bowles, and Her Majesty's great-nephew, Master Arthur Elliot," the statement continued.
Freddy is the son of Camilla's son Tom Parker Bowles and Sara Buys, who also share a daughter Lola Parker Bowles, 15. Gus and Louis Lopes are the twin sons of Camilla's daughter Laura Lopes, who also shares a daughter Eliza with her husband, Harry Lopes. Queen Camilla's children and grandchildren attended the state funeral of Queen Elizabeth in September.

this is a little different but do YOU have a favorite long name in that part of the book?
thats hard fjfsjbdjd theres some truly astounding names in here so i’ll give you a few
pages 249 - 253: By Accident or Design; Sign Here, Please (if there’s room)
Xenophilus Epaphreditus Baycock Calvert
died Huddersfield, Yorkshire, 1842
he was probably a time traveller or a warlock, also surname snap [slaps book]
Mahershalalhashbaz Sturgeon
Born Hesset, Suffolk, c. 1857 (Hesset, 1881 census)
Mahershalalhashbaz is the longest personal name in the Bible (and its fuckin RAD with a killer meaning)
Lyulph Ydwallo Odin Nestor Egbert Lyonel Toedmag Hugh Erchenwyne Saxon Esa Cromwell Orma Nevill Dysart Plantagenet Tollemache-Tollemache
this bloke was the 9th child of the Reverend Ralph William Lyonel Tollemache out of 15 (with two wives, the first was his cousin hence the double surnames), his given name initials spell out “Lyonel the Second” - his first son’s name was Lyonel and 9 of the kids’ names riff on it in their first name alone (the others are Lyonesse, Lyona, Leo, Lyonella, Leone, Lyonetta and Lynonulph) and although there are no repeat names in there a few of them follow some themes

记录在册的最长的英文姓氏?
Leone Sextus Denys Oswolf Fraudatifilius Tollemache-Tollemache de Orellana Plantagenet Tollemache-Tollemache
这个人的名字被1974年吉尼斯纪录认定为「最长的英语姓氏」,然而这其实是一个误解,因为他的姓氏其实只是:Tollemache-Tollemache。
Leone1884年生于林肯郡,是牧师Ralph Tollemache-Tollemache的第6个儿子,在Ralph的众多孩子中排名第八,由他的第二任妻子Dora Cleopatra Maria Lorenza de Orellana所生。与他的许多兄弟姐妹一样,他的父亲给他起了一个非常非主流的名字。
Leone的姓是:Tollemache-Tollemache。
他的父亲Ralph在1853年娶了她的堂妹Caroline Tollemache(她是拉尔夫的伯父Felix Thomas Tollemache)的女儿。
第一任妻子去世后,他于1876年第二次结婚,同时把自己的姓Tollemache改成了一个双姓:Tollemache-Tollemache(这也是他和他妻子的姓)
「de Orellana」源自西班牙的命名习俗,他的母亲正是来自西班牙,这也成为他姓氏前的一部分。
第一个「Tollemache-Tollemache」似乎是一个不太寻常的名字。
因为Leone是第六个儿子,因此得名「Sextus」。
「Fraudatifilius」是拉丁语,意为「被骗之人之子」。
「Leone」则是重复了他哥哥姐姐的命名模式(他们分别叫:Lyonel, Lyonesse, Lyulph, Lyona, Leo, Lyonella和Lyonetta)。
前五个名字的首字母「LSD OF」对应了当时的英国货币单位,L是镑、S是先令、D是便士、O是半便士(ob)以及四分之一便士(farthing)。这可能和他父亲Ralph与第一任妻子的受托人之间的财务纠纷有关。
与之相似,他哥哥的名字是: Lyulph Ydwallo Odin Nestor Egbert Lyonel Toedmag Hugh Erchenwyne Saxon Esa Cromwell Orma Nevill Dysart Plantagenet Tollemache-Tollemache,名字首字母连起来是「LYONEL THE SECOND」。
日常生活中,Leone一般会将他的名字���写为:Leone Sextus Tollemache。
Tumblr media
Ralph给孩子起的名字都是极尽古怪之能事,他与第一任妻子生了5个孩子,分别叫:
Lyonel Felix Carteret Eugene Tollemache
Florence Caroline Artemesia Tollemache
Evelyne Clementina Wentworth Cornelia Maude  Tollemache
Granville Grey Marchmont Manners Plantagenet Tollemache
Marchmont Murray Reginald Grasett Stanhope Plantagenet Tollemache
与第二任妻子生的孩子名字就更古怪了,分别是:
Dora Viola Gertrude Irenez de Orellana Dysart Plantagenet Tollemache-Tollemache
Mabel Helmingham Ethel Huntingtower Beatrice Blazonberrie Evangeline Vise de Lou de Orellana Plantagenet Toedmag Saxon Tollemache-Tollemache
Lyonesse Matilda Dora Ida Agnes Ernestine Curson Paulet Wilbraham Joyce Eugénie Bentley Saxonia Dysart Plantagenet Tollemache-Tollemache
Lyulph Ydwallo Odin Nestor Egbert Lyonel (LYONEL) Toedmag Hugh Erchenwyne (THE) Saxon Esa Cromwell Orma Nevill Dysart (SECOND) Tollemache-Tollemache
Lyona Decima Veroica Esyth Undine Cyssa Hylda Rowena Adela Thyra Ursuala Ysabel Blanche Lelias Dysart Plantagenet Tollemache-Tollemache
Leo Quintus Tollemache-Tollemache de Orellana Plantagenet Tollemache-Tollemache
Lyonella Fredegunda Cuthberga Ethelswytha Ideth Ysabel Grace Monica de Orellana Plantagenet Tollemache-Tollemache
Leone Sextus Denys Oswolf Fraudatifilius Tollemache-Tollemache de Orellana Plantagenet Tollemache-Tollemache
Lyonetta Edith Regina Valentine Myra Polwarth Avelina Phillipa Violantha de Orellana Plantagenet Tollemache-Tollemache
Lyunulph Cospatrick Bruce Berkeley Jermyn Tullibardine Petersham de Orellana Dysart Plantagenet Tollemache-Tollemache
Leone的哥哥Leo1908年申请改名为Leo de Orellana Tollemache-Tollemache,Leo和Leone都在第一次世界大战中战死。
Tollemache家族的怪异名字,被乔伊斯在《芬尼根的苏醒》中戏仿,比如:Helmingham Erchenwyne Rutter Egbert Crumwall Odin Maximus Esme Saxon Esa Vercingetorix Ethelwulf Rupprecht Ydwalla Bentley Osmund Dysart Yggdrasselmann,首字母的缩写是:HERE COMES EVERYBODY

‘Prince George to play official role in the King’s Coronation: Second in line to the throne name as one of Charles III’s four Pages of Honour for May 6 ceremony
Prince George is to become the youngest future king to play an official role at a coronation, having been named one of his grandfather’s four Pages of Honour. T
he nine-year-old will be tasked with carrying the King’s robes alongside three other Pages of Honour - schoolboys Lord Oliver Cholmondeley, 13, Nicholas Barclay, 13, and Ralph Tollemache, 12. All three are the sons of His Majesty’s friends. Meanwhile, the Queen has chosen to include as her own Pages of Honour her three grandsons, twins Gus and Louis Lopes, 13, and Freddy Parker Bowles, 12, as well as her great-nephew, Arthur Elliot, 11.
All eight are expected to wear matching scarlet uniforms and will form part of the procession through the Nave of Westminster Abbey.
Pages of Honour traditionally wear a knee-length scarlet coat with gold trimmings over a white satin waistcoat and lace jabot - a decorative ruffle or frill falling from the collar - white breeches, white stockings and black shoes with buckles. They also carry a small ceremonial sword.
The May 6 ceremony will mark the biggest moment on the world stage for Prince George, second in line to the throne and the youngest of the eight Pages.
His parents, the Prince and Princess of Wales, are understood to have thought long and hard about whether to allow him to take on an official role, owing to his tender years. It is thought that they made their decision after discussing it with him in detail to ensure he was comfortable with carrying out such a public duty.
His siblings - Princess Charlotte, seven, and four-year-old Prince Louis, who turns five later this month - are expected to attend the Coronation but sit among the congregation. Prince George is thought likely to join them for the service.
The decision to give the Queen’s family such high-profile roles is said to represent a new era of equality behind palace walls, reflecting the King’s devotion to his wife and the realities of the modern blended family. It is thought that her granddaughters, Lola and Eliza, may also play a role in the ceremony, although further details have not yet been announced.
Palace sources noted that pages are traditionally boys and so only grandsons of a suitable age could be chosen. 
Lord Cholmondeley is the second son of the Marquess of Cholmondeley, the King’s Lord-in-Waiting, and his wife the Marchioness of Cholmondeley, former model Rose Hanbury. The couple also have a son, Alexander, Earl of Rocksavage, Lord Cholmondeley’s twin brother, and daughter, Lady Iris, seven. It is understood that Lord Cholmondeley was chosen for the Coronation role in recognition of the fact that his twin is set to inherit their father's title. The family live at Houghton Hall in Norfolk, which is just four miles from Anmer Hall, the Prince and Princess of Wales’s country retreat. The foursome are good friends.
Nicholas Barclay is the grandson of Sarah Troughton, one of the Queen’s Companions and the Lord Lieutenant of Wiltshire. The Colman’s Mustard heir is a second cousin of the King and a former lady-in-waiting to the Duchess of Kent. Her daughter, Rose - Nicholas's mother - is one of the King’s 32 godchildren.
Ralph Tollemache is the elder son of banker Edward Tollemache, also one of the King’s godchildren, who was a Page of Honour to the late Queen from 1988 to 1990. His younger brother, James, was friends with the Prince of Wales at Eton. They are the sons of brewery heir John Tollemache, 5th Baron Tollemache, and his garden designer wife Alexandra Meynell.
While Prince George will be the only one of his three siblings with an official role, all three are expected to take part in the Coronation procession from Westminster Abbey back to Buckingham Palace. Plans show that George, Charlotte and Louis will all join their grandfather and the Queen as they leave the Abbey following the ceremony. They will then likely appear together on the palace balcony.
At the past two coronations, young heirs have remained in the congregation. In 1937, Princess Elizabeth, aged just 11, watched as her father, George VI, was crowned. At Elizabeth II’s own ceremony in 1953, Charles, aged four, sat next to his grandmother Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother.’
