Why couldnt it be maintained till today by the British Army?

What I like about the old trooping the colour broadcast - aside from the drill and troop condition overall - is the manner of commentary and an uninterrupted ceremony which is not being held by recent broadcasts

The quality of drill and dressing was SO much better and sharper then than now.

Looking at Pirbright drill in the 80's makes you wonder what they're teaching Guardsmen at Catterick nowadays. It certainly isn't Guards drill.

Dont shout at todays Guardsmen its hate crime and the drill instructor will be punished thats why we have a society of crime and violence the bible says chastise your child and it will save his life the young are dying from drugs and sin sad indeed the nation that forgets God is turned into hell.

Standards have sadly dropped since moving to Catterick and mixing with the other regiments. The guards depot was a tough place to do your training but it produced better soldiers for sure.

All of the guard companies on the parade. Nice. Something we won't see too often these days...

What a sight and sound in march passes. All 5 guards.

I was there with the Welsh Guards,the rifle drill timing was so much better then.

Such Perfect Drill !!!

Earl Lopez there (theoretically) can be 9 Guards today, but it’s too much to transport them around and everything so it’s 6 actually 11 in total could be possible

I’m so proud of Trooping of the Colour. Tradition at its best. In this year of 2022 watching this one in 1988 is still a wonderful spectacular. Perfect on every way. I love it and I’m so proud to be British. I didn’t realise that the Queen started rising in a carriage in 1988. I thought it was later because I know that Burmese died in 2001. A wonder sight to see. Magnificent. Everything times to the exact minute. At least that can’t be taken away from the British. Amen.

The soldiers were all of the same height back then. And all thin.

The Best Trooping the Colour was 1985, The Colour being Trooped by the then 2nd Bn Coldstream Guards and even the Queen mother was known to have stated this, our discipline was second to none like our Motto, The highlight of my military career.

The marching is much better than now

That last remark by Colonel MacFarlane towards the end of the Black Guardsman Richard Stokes was very welcoming, unfortunately he suffered a great deal while in the Regiment and left the Army in disgust in 1990. He later donated his GSM with NI clasp to The National Army Museum.

Also I notice the royal salute and general salute is a lot slower back in 1988

There are six guards since 1993 (including 2019), apart from 2009 which saw 7 guards on parade. In the years before the number of guards varied between 5 guards (e.g.1954) and even eleven guards (1919) with most years having eight guards.

Unimaginable a kid so bored at Trooping The Colour is now a grown man with 3 children and a very elegant Queenly wife proudly serving the UK, Feeling ever more-so like a King than his father.
