    Ooohh I should have been watching CNN! On BBC America I only saw one fellow, inside the church walking about before the ceremony.

    Question about David Beckham and his OBE.... worn on the right ? shouldn't it have been on the left as it was awarded to him? Please correct me if I am misunderstanding the protocol.

    Bang on old chap, he dropped a bit of a clanger there. Two in fact, no other civilians were wearing their gongs.

    Thanks for that Jock... I thought it VERY odd, and as you did, noticed he was the only civilian to be sporting a gong.

    Yes indeed, he is absolutely free to drop a clanger with two billion people watching, whenever he likes.
