3D royal wedding plans ruled out

The upcoming royal wedding between Prince William and Kate Middleton will not be shot in 3D, it has been revealed.

The press secretary to the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall, Patrick Harrison, quashed rumours that 3D would be used in the filming of the ceremony for TV, explaining in an email: “I’m afraid I have to say that we have decided not to progress with 3D coverage of the service on this occasion.

“There are a number of reasons for this, most notably the additional camera footprint in the abbey, the relatively small (albeit growing) audience for 3D, and our desire to not be distracted away from negotiating and facilitating the optimal 2D, radio, photographic and online coverage of the day.”
