Review: Kate and William: A Royal Love Story

Oh yes, I have just seen yet another documentary about the royal couple everyone is talking about; Kate and William. This one was produced by BBC, and aired the day before the wedding.

Over all, it was an okay documentary if youre not particulary interested in the royal wedding, and just want a short and uncontroversial version of the story. It was short and to the point. No gossip, no slander. On the other hand, it was equally not as deep as the two others I've earlier reviewed here on the blog; Kate and William: A Modern Romance and William and Cathrine: A Modern Fairytale

The documentary was well produced, and all in all slightly entertaining. Though, it had a strong element of propaganda – as you can expect from the state channel the day before a royal wedding. Still, its worthy for a 4 out of 6.

    you sir, have some tenacity. I couldn't sit through one soppy doco about our irrelevant and impotent royal family let alone 3 documentaries on the topic. kudos to you

    Nice post man, but if I may ask, why did you do your grading system out of 6 rather than out of 5?

    I was so uninterested in the whole thing, from the perspective of someone English. I think if I watched it, my boredom of the Royal family would make my opinion biased :P

    Daily Show's take on it was amazing. No footage of the wedding could be used for comedy purposes, so they had the entire thing "redone" in CGI... outsourced to a Taiwanese company

    Being Irish opinion on the British royal family varies from indifference to outright dislike so I think I'll be taking a pass on this.

    I'm just amused that Britain hasn't gotten rid of the royal family yet- just a huge drain on their resources, after all. Its not like they perform any original tasks or anything :P

    I've been so invested in my own little circle of the world that this whole Royal Wedding went by without me even noticing. Might have to watch this to catch up.
