ABC News Classics Royal Wedding: Prince Charles and Lady Diana

On July 29, 1981, an estimated 750 million people tuned in to see the heir to Britain's throne wed the 20-year-old former kindergarten teacher in St Paul's Cathedral. The fairy-tale courtship of Lady Diana Spencer and Prince Charles sparked worldwide interest in the royal family. ABC News' Peter Jennings and Barbara Walters bring you back to the culmination of years of speculation and intrigue, when Diana walked down the aisle in front of 3,500 invitees, trailing a 25-foot train to become the people's princess.

Disappointing

I wanted the entire, uncut wedding, not a news broadcast. This is interesting for fans of Diana, but disappointing to those of us who remember that day and would like to remember it in its entirety. January 18, 2008

extremely disappointed

I was so excited to watch this when it arrived. I loved the actual wedding back in 1981--great music, great scenes of London, a really beautiful event. This dvd chops out so much of what I was looking forward to. It just barely shows the highlights, has way too much commentary from Barbara Walters and left me feeling cheated and disappointed. It's better than having no reminder at all of the royal wedding, but I'm now off to eBay to see if anyone has the original BBC video. I'm not a complainer or hard to please, so sorry to be negative.

Just what I have been looking for

Excellent News Reel!!

This dvd was very infrmative, it brought me back to that time of hope and inocence the the young Diana on her wedding day. ABC did this very tastefully and well documented. Its a best of...but I will always treasure it. Highly recommended October 9, 2007

A wedding fan's review

I stayed up all night when I was 13 to watch this wedding live on television. Recently, I began a search for coverage of the wedding as the 10th anniversary of Diana's death approached. This dvd was suggested to me and I was thrilled to find it. It does have wonderful coverage of the event and covers all the high notes. If what you are looking for is a reminder of the beauty and pagentry of this "wedding of the century", this dvd will be a wonderful addition to your collection. However, for a fan such as myself on whose teenage brain the wedding made such an impact, I found that some of the strategic cuts on the coverage eliminated things that I was looking forward to seeing again.
