The Scots Guards - Escort to the Crown 

David Price: The Guardsmans guns are not loaded

@@angelabushby1891 They are. They look traditional, but their task is serious as can be. Just go there, wield a large knife and see what happen.

Even though it was for politicians (and H.M.) the Scots Guards didn't miss a step. And those pipes! How did not one of them do a little skippety jig or foot stampy thing? Discipline, laddie, discipline. Big ups to the Scots Guards, I say.

YES. NAVY CORP WOMAN VIETNAM

That bugler should be getting some practice whilst doing extras

@@Jsr827 A bairn in Scots is an infant/small child, greet is to cry. Hence cry like a child, in Scots is greet like a bairn 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍🏻...

You and me both!

I'm proud of you! Much love and respect Sir!

I love the Queen but can't say the same for Haz or the King but the next in line will certainly be awesome!

😢

He was put there probably because he did something very honorable. He wasn't put there as a box checker like we do in the US.

Same... HERE HERE!

Oh what?! I must have missed her! I saw the crown but no Queen. If she hung on for a few more years, would she have gotten a letter from herself? My great grandmother made it to 100 and got a letter from the Queen, I think that's what kept her going.

“Has Wellington nothing send me but these amazons?”

They got destroyed because this music will make any motivated man invincible!

You mean the 92nd Highlanders not the scots

Scots.

G'day from not the USA!

Not to mention the Royal Company of Archers, the Queen’s bodyguards whenever she’s in Scotland.

Oh, that made me sad... even after the Coronation I still find it hard to believe...😢

Actually, by orders of the Yewish merchants and bankers who were financing Cromwell from Holland and had the 1290 Edict of Expulsion from England canceled. In 1917, Jev banker Jacob Schiff, hailing from NY, ordered the inhuman slaughter of the Romanov Family. I see a pattern.

@@marcodepellegrin2814 Thanks very much indeed for your comment and information

@@pemacal57 You're welcome Pedro. If you are interested in these historical subjects, I would recommend the book "Under the Sign of the Skorpion" by Juri Lina, Yr. 2002. And to read the documents of the Zundel Trial, Toronto 1985-88.

@@marcodepellegrin2814 Hello Marco, thanks so much again. I see I am not alone. Yes I knew and I read about Ernst Zundel trial, and about the German Lawyer Sylvia Stolz…..the biggest lie….I think you understand me. Best wishes from South West old Hispania.

Correction: beheaded by order of Parliament after being found guilty of treason.

and the chinese brands ...

Most of the world outside America is like that

Don't forget Mc Donalds!

Cheers, man. Lefties are special no matter what they do - corporal or not, ordered to or not, doing stuff with your left hand competently is just magical. No arguments. As for the sergeant playing with a slightly less than adequate forefinger - when tasked he probably said "Yes, SIR!" and set about doing it. Scots, right? You want crazed maniacs racing at you out of the heather waving Claymores during a political ruction? Better hope they're Scotsmen and on your side. And then there's their women! Oh my word. You thought the men were fierce? Well, the ladies might look slight and dainty but ....well, you have been warned. Say no more. Unless you're a bit dim ... Scots chicks are hot, but dangerous, ok? Ok, then. But, oh, those pipes!! How they can wail! How they can soothe me! How they can anger me! There is no other instrument that can wind me up like them! Oh, the pipes!!!

I hadn't noticed the leftie. Good catch. I'm left-handed and thinking of learning how to play, and my hand and bag/drone placements would be the same as his. PS I'm impressed you caught the shorter ring finger on the other piper. It took a couple looks for me to see it.

@@greenacresgirl6259 Are you a Scots lassie, Green Acres Girl? And are you learning the pipes? Are you lookin' to make yourself a hotter young woman, then? Partial to Scots lassies, me, from the other side of the planet, mind. Ooohhh and left-handed lassies really spin mah wheels!

@@greenacresgirl6259 that's great, you might consider what youtube.com/@bagpiperbruce9746 is doing, not only is he recording his progress but getting feedback. Just a thought.

​@Leslie Thomson Thank you! I found Bagpiper Bruce a few weeks ago, and he gives me hope! I've been scouring YT for bagpipe tutorials (subscribed to Matt Willis and Bagpipe Ready). If you have any other recommendations - including for a practice chanter - I'd love to hear them. I live 200+ miles roundtrip from the nearest in-person instruction, a long-established pipe band that offers free instruction on band practice days. I figure I'll go a couple times a month and supplement with YT and one-on-one Zoom instruction.

SNP are finished!

Next will be 2026 unless SNP go bust

Not sure what you said above. "Google Translate" makes it sound very peculiar and insulting.

@@douglasbrown5692 goodafternoun i am very sorry for not you understand but i don't know english language very good.i said that i am very proud for english people which honur their QUEEN and their history Nd congrachulaition to agima of your country

The Green Hills of Tyrol

@@JimRamsayJWR Thanks so much! Cheers m8!

He is The Drum Major.

It's called 'The Green Hills of Tyrol'.

The police were doing exactly what they were supposed to be doing - monitoring the crowds and not allowing themselves to be distracted by the display.

The duke of Hamilton, the senior peer of Scotland

Thanks for this Answer

​@@Tom-bs1emchar bro, I was wondering that myself!

Being ceremonial, I wouldn't think so BUT, being active Royal Marines and as this is a more official escort duty, perhaps they do. Either way, they have a nasty looking, pointy bit on the end, which I'm sure would give you one bugger of a scratch! 😲

This is the 3rd regiment Scots Guards, not the Royal Marines.

I believe they are always loaded.

Who’s in the car?

​@@jensy2289 The person guarding the Queen's crown. 😊

Duke of Hamilton

@@raymonddavidson1237 Thank you !

The duke of Hamilton.

Alexander Douglas-Hamilton, Duke of Hamilton and Brandon, Custodian of the Scottish Crown.

Police are there for traffic and crowd control

@JimRamsayJWR yes I know that. It was just a light-hearted joke.

1) Campbeltown Loch into something I don’t know : 2) Scotland the Brave into Heilan’ Laddie repeat 1); 3) a Scottish Soldier into March no More Now, Soldier Laddie, A Scottish Soldier again; Repeat 2)

The Duke of Hamilton

The Duke of Hamilton

The "stiff" is The Duke of Hamilton.

The office of the Duke of Hamilton and Brandon, as custodian of the crown, is to keep his eyes trained on the sparklies as they progress from the Castle to the Scottish Parliament and not on irrelevant members of the public.
