I know we’re done with the actual Jubilee festivities, but I only just got around to watching this on my DVR: BBC America (and probably the real BBC also) aired a retrospective on the major weddings in QEII’s clan, beginning with the Queen Mum marrying her Bertie — a.k.a. George VI, a.k.a. Colin Firth — and going right up to Wills and Kate’s tiny little homespun ceremony. It’s fun to see the evolution of the fashion, including Princess Margaret’s dress that so influenced Duchess Catherine’s, but let’s face it: You really just want to remind yourself what Elton John looked like in 1986. WISH GRANTED.
