Simple question really.

I'll break the ice - I will be watching out of a sense of morbid curiosity and because even though I dislike the Monarchy and everything that it stands for, even I can recognise the magnitude of us getting a new head of state. I also enjoy watching the Great Unwashed gammon themselves into a flag-shagging frenzy on international TV.

It's a no from me.

The propaganda this week in TV has been infuriating.

I look forward to the day when people don't look at you weirdly for not being into the Royal Family.

Well I don't have Sky Sports to watch what I'm sure will be the THRILLING F1 race from Miami, so I'll have to make do with the consolation prize of Lionel Richie dancing on the ceiling for the concert on Sunday.

Will have the TV on for the Coronation, but I'll be doing other things at the same time. It's one of those historic things so I feel compelled to have it on, but I couldn't just sit there from 8am or whatever through to whenever it ends. I don't want to miss something going wrong. Like all the wheels fall off the carriage and I miss it.

No. My wife wants to watch it, and presumably my son will get bored of it, so I'll get to take him out the house for a bit to keep him entertained while it's on. Shame the weather looks shite, but oh well.

No, I'm completely indifferent to the whole thing.

I won't be intentionally watching it but will probably see some of it at some point as it'll be hard to avoid.

No. Didn't watch any of the weddings and won't be bothering with this. Sickening waste of money that could be better spent helping people.

I'm ambivalent but the wife will want to watch it, so I'll probably catch glimpses.

No, it will just make me angry.

As an aside, it’s something of a relief that Diana died. If she was still around, can you imagine the unbearable fuss that would be made of the situation?

No interest in watching it.

It'd take heat off Meghan if Diana turned up at the coronation with a few half-Egyptian kids.

If Diana turns up can someone let me know? I'll definitely tune in then.
