Bute Hall will not be big enough
How big is it, Robin?
Am I right that there is to be one in the south as well? Westminster (St Margarets?) I assume.
I think the last such I went to was Jo and Laura Grimond. Who were probably both present (at least Laura was) the day I first met Charles. I was reading the tributes in Hansard and it made me want to cry again.
‘Bute Hall will not be big enough’
I thought it was pretty large when my daughter graduated there nearly twenty years ago. Apparently it can seat over a thousand, when laid out as a theatre. As you said, probably not enough.
I see that the university does webcast and DVDs of graduation ceremonies. I rather hope that TV would be there as well.
