In the first episode, Head Registrar Alison Cathcart, who registered Prince George's birth, conducts a wedding for couple Hollie, 27, and Simon, 41 who have no witnesses so have to pluck two willing volunteers from outside the town hall. They have a separate party planned but have come to complete the official ceremony. Alison has been a registrar for 22 years and has conducted around 5000 weddings. Despite a large number of people divorcing nowadays, the registrars at Westminster have not noticed a decline in the number of weddings.
