It's good to be reminded every few years that I live in a nation of servile, craven toadies who will happily traipse halfway across the country to stand in the rain waving plastic flags (made in China) at some sourfaced old bag whose greatest achivement is she hasn't died yet, but wouldn't lift a finger to help one of their fellow Britons because it's "none of their business" and "nothing to do with me". Hooray for us!

Well...

We've gone from a silver jub which 'entertained' dissent in the form of a song called "God save the queen" which was about a youth going to waste and nothing about any jubilee (entertained just as long as you accepted being beaten up by lovers of free speech with caveats and lovers of free expression of thumping people)

.. to , um, etc.

Was there an 'entertainment' of the kind of the last nights 'pop music' jambree? I don't recall one.

So, they've gone from 'out-and-out worship, or nothing' of churchinness and stuff, into a knees up and a bunch of jokes at her expense, no offence marm, lots of 'one' references and 'no stuffiness now'..

(The question was referencing the silver jub, obv).

I think the abiding memory of the golden jubilee show was the 'Brian May' moment, all shudder...
