    Pitcairn Islanders watch Royal Wedding live!

    By pitcairn1234  |  Posted April 29, 2011  |  Adamstown, Pitcairn Island
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     pitcairn1234 of Adamstown, Pitcairn Island, tells us the remote British overseas territory in the South Pacific, home to only about 50 people, normally has electricity for just 10 hours a day.

    But on Friday, the government left the power on so locals could watch the royal wedding live on CNN - one of only two TV stations received there. He said there was 'a lot of hype from the islanders,' who stayed up through the early hours to capture the moment.
