CTV Launces a Royal Wedding Website.


Im all honesty, I am 100% watching this wedding. Princess Diana Came to Halifax when I was a kid, Mom brought me to Halifax (we live in Dartmouth) Anyway, we were waiting to cross at a crosswalk a limo was driving by, and it stoped infront of us, Diana was in the back she rolled her window down and waved. All according to my Mom, I don't remember it at all. But still ...... Here's the low down on the website....


This Wednesday, CTV marks the start of the 100-day countdown to the Royal Wedding with the launch of TheRoyals.ca, a robust, one-stop online destination for all of the news, photos, information and speculation leading up to The Royal Wedding. With updates flooding in from across CTV’s network of news, entertainment and online properties, royal watchers don’t need to look anywhere else for the best breaking news, videos and insider information in the days leading up to The Royal Wedding on April 29, 2011. CTV news properties also mark the countdown with special programming this Wednesday, including ETALK PRESENTS: ROAD TO THE ROYAL WEDDING at 1 p.m. ET.


"The worlds of television, media, celebrity and fandom have all changed dramatically since the spectacle of the 1981 royal wedding, but what remains is Canada’s passion and appetite for all things royal," said Susanne Boyce, President, Creative, Content and Channels, CTV Inc.. "As CTV gears up its multi-platform coverage for this year’s wedding, TheRoyals.ca becomes Canada’s first and best resource dedicated exclusively to satisfying the appetite of royal enthusiasts."
