I'm sorry, I thought it was official... It seems strange indeed

Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will hold a pre-BAFTA reception at Kensington Palace tonight
Don't know if it is reliable! I thought they still were in Mustique!
Me neither. I could understand if there is confusion because of the use of Kensington Palace.
The Baftas air on BBC America not PBS in the US. My local PBS has Downton Abbey on tonight. The commercial would have shots from last year's award where William was present.
What, isn't the BAFTAs live? I didn't think it was pre-recorded.... Did they really say William would be there? Then, he probably will, right? And in that case, it's tonight.Yes, you are right! It wasn't PBS. (I can't always keep those stations straight). It definitely was showing a previous year's BAFTA awards ceremony, with William, and the voice over saying that on Sunday night the 2015 BAFTA's would air with Stephen Fry as host and Prince William as (whatever - can't recall), maybe presenter.
Unless the event at KP Saturday night was not the BAFTA awards being taped for Sunday night, then it means another ceremony was taped at another time and William was present. I guess we'll see, or learn of it. I won't be watching the BAFTA's. I was just curious about the apparent disjunct. That's why I posted on the topic.
Huh, I just assumed it was Don't know why. When is it usually taped?The Baftas aren't aired live in the UK. It's on tape delay. The same thing in America. No announced attendance from Prince William this year from KP or BAFTA.

Ok, I get it now It is today but doesn't air live. Now I'm up to date. I guess they could be there unannounced (one can always hope!), but I highly doubt it.It's today. They are live streaming the red carpet arrivals over the Internet starting at 5pm London time. It airs at 9pm UK time. BBC America airs it at 8pm US Eastern Time.

That's weird... Could it be that only the people doing the commercial got it wrong? Or something... They wouldn't pull out last minute. And their trip wasn't last minute either.Then it means that they were expected to attend, or William was expected to do so, otherwise they wouldn't have announced him as presiding at the 2015 Bafta's. I wonder how that level of miscommunication occurred?
It's a curiosity.
I think William's contribution may have been taped based on this from the live BBC reporting
Bafta Film Awards 2015 - BBC News
"Dickie bow Posted at 20:27
Bafta paid tribute to film-maker Lord Attenborough, who died in August last year, with contributions from Prince William and Robert Downey Jr, who was nominated for an Oscar for his role as Chaplin in the Attenborough film of the same name."
