After the Duchess of Cambridge's first speech (HERE), one of the comments on YouTube said: "Extremely annoying how she reads the script every 2 seconds, that was most likely written by her PR team."
But the overall consensus was that, for a first effort, it wasn't too bad at all.
Second effort though this one may have been, the rather carping comment above seems even more appropriate than last time - or at least raised a number of questions.
- Had she rehearsed the speech and, if so, how many times?
- How was the speech laid out on the two pages she was using?
- Why hadn't the height of the microphone been fixed before she started to speak?
- Had the sign in the background been properly secured?
- Why was there a gap on the left of the sign that allowed a police woman disguised as Princess Anne (and various other people) to peer out an distract the wider audience?
Or, to put it more bluntly, with the resources available to the royal households, why on earth don't they bother to get the basics right>
