Not BCP, this side of the pond that means 1662. It was Church of England 
Common Worship. I agree that it was generally dignified and not dramatic 
- apart from the sermon which the commentators described as "powerful" 
and unlike any address at a royal wedding in recent years, if at all. I 
was also struck by how at ease Meghan's mother looked. Here she was, 
thrust onto the public stage and she didn't put a foot wrong as far as I 
could see.
