Cordially Invite You and a Guest to Observe a Live Broadcast Television Event
“A Royal Wedding – The View”
Friday, April 29, 2011 at 11:00 o’clock a.m., ET.
In celebration of the Royal nuptials of Prince William of Wales and Catherine Elizabeth “Kate” Middleton at Buckingham Palace, the hosts of ABC’s popular talker “The View” will observe this special occasion with “A Royal Wedding – The View,” a live, one-hour special edition, FRIDAY, APRIL 29 (11:00 a.m.-12:00 noon, ET), covering all the pomp and circumstance. This marks the first time “The View” has broadcast live on Friday since Sept. 12, 2008. Regularly featured co-hosts Joy Behar, Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Sherri Shepherd will be joined in-studio by Hollywood royalty Goldie Hawn, a featured guest co-host for the day. Barbara Walters, on assignment in London for ABC News, will join the program live via satellite.
Ms. Hawn will share personal stories of her friend, the late Princess Diana and her son William, from their stay at her ranch in Colorado, a visit that included dirt biking for the young prince.
Among the topics to be discussed the morning of this highly anticipated fairytale Friday will, of course, be the ceremony, the dress, the ring, the clothes, guests and all the post posh wedding news.
Scheduled segments include “Kate Couture,” a “Kate” Middleton-inspired fashion show with “Kate” look-alikes, and a real-life couple from Dayton, NV, “Will” and “Kate,” will marry live on the show. The groom is a police officer in Carson City and his bride-to-be works for a popular book chain.
“The View” features Daytime Emmy Award-winning hosts Barbara Walters, Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Sherri Shepherd. It’s the original forum in which real women discuss everyday issues, share their opinions and engage in colorful conversations. “The View,” broadcast in HDTV and produced in 2-channel stereo sound, is now available to watch online daily at 4:00 p.m., ET/1:00 p.m., PT on the ABC Digital Full Episode Player at ABC.com. “The View” is produced by ABC Daytime and Ms. Walters’ Barwall Productions, with Ms. Walters serving as executive producer along with Bill Geddie, who also serves as executive producer for “The Barbara Walters Specials.” “The View” is directed by Mark Gentile.
