Well let's turn now to another
major international story |
| 00:00:07 |
00:00:10 |
from this year, the wedding
of Kate Middleton to Prince William. |
| 00:00:10 |
00:00:11 |
With more on that we turn
to Tucker Hope |
| 00:00:12 |
00:00:14 |
over at the Recon Wall.
-Cheerio Brooke, pip pip. |
| 00:00:15 |
00:00:17 |
Hi Tucker.
-Oh, hello governor. |
| 00:00:17 |
00:00:18 |
Shine your shoes?
-Okay, knock it off Tucker. |
| 00:00:18 |
00:00:21 |
50p for a shoeshine?
No? Okay, alright. |
| 00:00:21 |
00:00:23 |
Well, nearly 23 million
Americans tuned in |
| 00:00:24 |
00:00:26 |
to watch the royal wedding
last spring. |
| 00:00:26 |
00:00:28 |
But by far the most anticipated
event |
| 00:00:29 |
00:00:31 |
was when the Queen demanded
her sovereign right |
| 00:00:31 |
00:00:34 |
to spend the first night with her
grandson's bride to be. |
| 00:00:34 |
00:00:37 |
The tradition which dates back
nearly 900 years |
| 00:00:37 |
00:00:40 |
included the ritual deflowering
of both Princess Diana |
| 00:00:40 |
00:00:42 |
and Sarah Ferguson.
|
| 00:00:42 |
00:00:45 |
And although the official gesture
for Kate to follow the Queen |
| 00:00:46 |
00:00:48 |
into her bed chambers
lasts just but a second, |
| 00:00:48 |
00:00:49 |
watch for it...
|
| 00:00:49 |
00:00:51 |
Right in there.
There it is. |
| 00:00:51 |
00:00:54 |
One onlooker was able
to snap this photo |
| 00:00:54 |
00:00:57 |
of the blushing bride before
she was made into a woman |
| 00:00:57 |
00:00:59 |
by Her Majesty.
Brooke. |
