If the producers of THE CROWN want to consider a prequel to the series, then centering it around Mary of Teck would be the way to go. Just think of the life she lived. She was born into a minor German royal family, became engaged to England's Prince of Wales, lost him due to illness, then became engaged to his younger brother, George, the Duke of York, became Queen after bearing six children, two of whom would become Kings of England, lived through a World War against the country of her birth, saw the family name changed to appear to be more 'British', watched her oldest son give up the crown, lived through a second World War, and then outlived her second son to see her granddaughter become Queen Elizabeth II. I'm surprised that her life story hasn't been given the full biographical treatment.
Agreed! Side note: the actress playing her in the series was spot-on--brilliant physical and persona casting. There should also be a series about Philips's mother, Princess Alice. She was a woman before her time.
davidyoung - she actually bore 6 children, the youngest was son, John, who died age 13.
Yes, am sick of this current crop!!!!!!!!!
This would be the role of a lifetime!! ❤️
Queen Mary was a format able woman & a loving, Granny to, Queen. I think the Queen resembles her Grandmother.
The content of the documentary is extremely well put together and interesting. The choppiness of the video itself with pictures being flipped back-and-forth continuously the actual speaking parts not matching up to the documentary itself are Incredibly annoying, also it takes away from the overall documentary. I don’t know who you are using at this point but they may want to practice a bit more before they continue making documentaries like this. Again the con tent is amazingly informational. The presentation leaves a lot to be desired.
agree - difficult to watch. Many others on this channel are the same.
I was very interested in the subject but I just couldn’t tolerate the formatting. Awful.
It’s done that way on purpose to avoid a copyright strike.
@@christinaaubin8508 That may be but none of the other videos on this particular woman does that. So I’m not really completely convinced that it’s a copyright situation. Not to mention they were literally flipping the historians names back-and-forth back-and-forth that didn’t make any sense and that certainly not copyright.
The flipping is done by people using video or images without permission. Its done to avoid being accused of copyright infringement by the original producers of the program.
Queen Mary was a complete badass. I’m fascinated with her and her era. No other Royal wore jewelry quite like Mary, it was a site to behold. Just wonderful. It’s too bad her son was such a punk. He gave up the throne for Wallace and became a Nazi sympathizer. Oof! Queen Mary made her mark on the monarchy and her purpose is still felt today.
If TV is at all true, she was a cold fish.
David was a woose
@@maryannangros7538 apparently Wallis was only interested in being a mistress, not becoming a queen.

Queen Mary was very sad when Archduke Franz Ferdinand and Sophie were assassinated. Queen Mary was one of the few royal women of Europe who was kind and accepting of Sophie and treated her equally when even the Habsburgs would not.
With Queen Mary's personal history, I'm not surprised. If I'm not mistaken, her father was a child of a morganatic marriage. So she must have known something about how it feels...
Very sad for those who knew him. Effing tragic and foolish to involve the world in it. If there had been no World War I? We never would have seen the rise of Hitler and his party.
The Hapsburgs had no room to judge anyone, they Inter married themselves into oblivion.
Morganatic marriage is simply one with people of different classes. Why would that matter to Mary, the wife of a King?
It isn't THAT simple! IT's a marriage between a person of High degree, like a prince or princess, and a person with no title.@@griffinmathers929
What an amazing person was Queen Mary and the way she stood by her husband King George V. I never knew what an amazing couple they were. Thank you for sharing this with us.
I’d known little about Mary of Teck except that she seemed to rarely smile, was portrayed as cold ( certainly to her children), and lasted a long time. This documentary gave me a better appreciation and respect for her and her dedication to the British monarchy and her sense of duty. However, I think her error was to not balance her duty to her country with her duty to her children, future monarchs. That is, in a real way, to be a mother, and not just a queen. She seemed unable to offer the most basic maternal warmth and love towards her children, and this has, unfortunately, passed down the generations, because her granddaughter also had difficulty connecting to her oldest son, the current king. It was only Diana who broke that mold of turning the royal children over to professional governesses, and Insisted on being involved with her sons emotionally (unlike her husband), and in their day-to-day lives, and that is essential in the development of the future royals. Mary of Teck may have abrogated herself for the monarchy and her sense of duty, but she also abrogated her children. Perhaps her oldest son would not have done what he had done had his parents been more involved in a nurturing way, because it appears that both of them were quite severe And even degrading. One would not find a warm shoulder of hers to cry on. However, she did show emotional availability to her people in a broad sense, and was a faithful and good wife to her King.
Excellent documentary. Queen Mary was a remarkable woman.
It was also nice to see Lady C in the Documentary.
On Both sides, queen Mary and princess Alice (Prince Philip’s mother) are very strong woman. I imagine Princess Royal Anne gets her devotion to duty from her great grandmothers
The video and audio editing on this film are absolutely terrible -- barely even amateurish! The content is fascinating and informative. It's a pity it is presented so poorly.
They keep on repeating and stating the same shit over and over again. What a piece of propaganda rubbish.
More channels out there the same, all newly formed & from the USA.
@@ursulastaempfli759 Falsely extended with rubbish to get full content & money.
This seems to be the same documentary, probably as originally aired:
czcams.com/video/JVruFaPLW0A/video.html
@@ursulastaempfli759dont watch it then
like trying to watch a strobe light!
It’s _literally_ unwatchable. So I just listen.
I can’t help but wonder if these have been “stolen” in some way because the video quality is absurd.
Deana …………you got that right!!! Lol!
That was true. When you left that comment, I closed my eyes and just listened. You saved my eyes.
@@Neddoest it's just old original film if you can't watch it listen to it
I completely agree. If it stopped flicking back and forth then the photos would be able to be appreciated!
Queen Mary (May) of Teck is a fascinating, remarkable woman. Many are unaware of her tremendous influence on the modern monarchy. of today.
I admire Queen Mary immensely. Livecthexroyal collection of jewels, thank Queen Mary. She was the power behind George 5th.
I think Prince Edward's daughter, Lady Louise WIndsor, looks like a younger version of the elderly Queen Mary. And Zara Philips looks like a middle aged version of the young Princess Mary of Tech. Genetics is strange that way.
Did you ever see the side by side photos of Queen Victoria & P Beatrice (at this age)? Twins!
@bonnieabrs1003 yes she gets her eyes from Q victoria.
Did you notice at the Christmas walk to church what an interesting mix of genes Mia has facially. One minute she looks like Mike, next like Zara.
I don't know If anyone else has noticed but I think Louise Prince Edward and Sophie's daughter is so like Queen Mary
Queen Mary held the monarchy strong, with respect to history and moved forward into the 20th century.
The crap they do to these videos to avoid copyright infringement RUINS IT!!😡😡😡
Not sure I agree with a lot of this. She was a very good consort ,no doubt at all . But she was matriarch of 6 ,very troubled kids and a very materialistic woman . The fact that her eldest son "bit off his own nose to spite his face" can be attributed to a very cold relationship with both parents. Her second son had more responsibility in him ,but again ,like his elder brother was never nourished at home . Even in the times she lived in ,where Royalty was revered ,she was greatly respected ,but never loved. Dont get me wrong , Im not saying she was a bad person ,but to say she "saved the monarchy ,stretches it a bit thin
I agree. Not doubt she had great qualities, but she pretty much failed as a mother (she was cold and distant), and had a reputation in her own time of being a kleptomaniac. Wonder where she got all that jewelry? Some of it she bullied people into giving to her (note: especially the displaced members of the Russian royal family who came to the UK). Same with the cool little collections of things she had - people used to hide their good stuff when they heard she was visiting.
@@triciacallahan1680😂😂😂😂haha!!
@@triciacallahan1680 the Brits got more than the jewelry the Romanovs sold to stay alive.
Tzar Nicholas had bank accounts all over the world holding dowery money for his daughters. In todays rates it was billions per daughter.
Most of that money vanished after the family was murdered. The Romanovs didn’t get it & no one admits to where it went.
As for Mary. She was terribly shy & poor. She was also bullied buy people because her mother was morbidly obese.
Her husband was a tyrant, short tempered & less than pleasant to be around. Mary walked a fine line between comforting her children & placating her husband. Only when he was off doing something could she be a mother. IMHO he was the cold bully & Mary didn’t come into her own until after he passed.
@@triciacallahan1680
The kleptomania occurred
during her old age. When
people age, their mental
faculties decline in various
ways. Most people can
step back but a monarch
a consort or a public figure
is not able to step back
totally out of the public eye.
If she failed to be a cuddly,
nurturing mother it was
because she was not
nurtured, by her own parents.
In fairness to Queen Mary,
George V, himself appeared
to be a handful to manage.
(Let alone the children)
However, if both George V
and Queen Mary had been
nurtured; they might have
picked up on the abuse by
the nursery staff. The
Princess royal did not appear
to be too damaged -- But
perhaps the boys were
more difficult for the
nursery staff to handle
@@here_we_go_again2571or maybe the nursery staff focused more on the boys. 🤷 Anyway, I couldn't help but wonder how the royals managed to hire all the mentally disturbed and/or sadistic nannies and tutors... Seems like they all flocked to the palace, and weren't spotted for the longest time. 🤦🤦🤦
It is truly amazing how much Queen Elizabeth looked like her grandmother.
What a remarkable woman! Thank you for providing this. I didn't know about her before this.
Queen MAry was the paragon of royal duty. Her granddaughter ER Ii is the embodiment of her influence amd spirit.
Queen Mary's mother was a granddaughter of Britain's legendary King George III whom the American colonies and George Washington fought for against George III and the British monarchy in the American Revolutionary War in the 1770's. Queen Mary's granddaughter Queen Elizabeth II just passed away last year in 2022. So in just six generations of one family going past over 250 years spans the huge impact of just a single family had over the huge, very important and sometimes colossal events of British and world history which could be encapsulated by the members of this one family. Queen Mary's mother was also a first cousin of Britain's Queen Victoria.
Queen Mary was really quite pretty in her prime. BTW, King George V and Czar Nicholas II looked like twins. I believe there is a documentary here on YT where they show a photo of the two side-by-side.
It looks like she had the big ears that Prince Charles inherited.
I am such a fan of Queen Mary. She was formidable and acquired amazing jewels for the crown.
I find Mary fascinating. I would love to learn more about her.
Audible books has an excellent 2 part biography by Anne Edwards, ‘Matriarch , Queen Mary and the house of Windsor”. One of the best biographies I have ever read.
I throughly enjoyed the observations and comments made by Lady Colin Campbell and the other biographers.
Thank you for sharing.
She had an amazing posture, so upright and elegant, I can see the queen in her
She wore a corset.
Thanks so much for posting this. QM has always interested me. I can look past the editing. I guess I'm just not that easily distracted, especially when the content is so interesting!
There have been some very strong woman in the British royal family who have remained a guiding influence throughout their long lives.
That’s all fine and dandy but I have a hard time admiring a mother who, to quote a documentary I watched earlier, wore a psychological armor that prevented any emotion shown to her children. Son David and his brother who later became King, both said they had a miserable, terrifying childhood, thanks to an abusive father and a non-intervening, cold, emotionless mother. I don’t care who or what you are or what the “times” were; why is it so wrong, IF you love your children, not to show it, at least to the extent that they don’t grow up with such psychological trauma. For all her faults, that’s one thing Diana wasn’t afraid to change, no matter what royal tradition was.
@@A2D4 I agree with you wholeheartedly, and that deficit, unfortunately was inherited by her granddaughter, and visited upon her children, especially her oldest son. If the royal family has one defect, it is the ability to be emotionally responsive to each other and to their people. For QE2, this came out after Diana died so tragically, and she was unable to address her people for days. But more importantly, she apparently offered nearly nothing emotionally to her older son, who is now the king. I can only conclude that her own mother was not much of a mother.
@@pbohearn Well said. 👍🏻
I truly love Mary's love for people.
I see a lot of the young Queen Mary in Lady Louise!
I have been fascinated by QM for awhile now. I don’t think history has done her justice at all. I think she was the steel spine that held up the monarchy as long as she lived.
I never realized all this about George and Mary. I love this. The Queen resembles her grandmother
I think the Princess Royale (Anne) resembles her more than anyone else. The older she gets, the moreso.
At first, I thought something was wrong with my computer. The choppiness is awful but I will watch because this story is rarely presented. Exceptional story and history.
Strong women can take us anywhere
She is the one I vaguely remember as being down to earth 🌍 need to watch!!!
Get the book written by James Hennessy called Queen Mary....its a great book for anyone who wants to know more about the life of this incredible woman. I think it was written in the late 1950s. Ive worn mine almost completely out!
Queen Mary...so wonderful!!!xxx
Flipping between portraits and their mirror images throughout - completely spoiled this documentary for me. Do they not tell them in the first term of visual editing courses that no human face is the same as its mirror image? Horrible visuals editing.
... Queen Mary was bad to Wally Simpson.
@@militzamadrid462 I’m so sorry but first of all what on earth does that comment have to do with this Video? Second are you really justifying a Nazi sympathizer with a good person? Are you kidding me? I mean, yes some people can get things wrong, but even after everything, she still, along with her husband, expound the virtues of the Third Reich. I am very confused about your post.
@@melissacoelho8413... being confuse is a choice, don't be, Just read other versiones of their story. Don't be one sided.
@@militzamadrid462 Bwahahaha I’m sorry but what???? I am not confused. But thanks for asking I guess? Sorry darlin’ I’m not into the Nazis I know some people really are I’m just not. No confusion there whatsoever my father fought them in World War II and kicked their Nazi ashes. You have a great day though K. 😂😂😂
@@melissacoelho8413... You sure are Natzi TDS. The coments are way off, you don't have enough information about me to make such conclusion. Happy New Year.
Beautiful historical footage with crumby, slipshod editing. Makeup your mind. Frontal or reverse lettering. One gets dizzy following the back & forth edits. Lady C, tell them!
I agree. It gave the whole ging avdry
This is what happens when one channel steals content from another and has to get around copyright issues.
Bless her dear soul Queen Mary. She would be a Saint if I was religious. It’s a shame Diana is seen as the great mixer of ordinary people. It’s also a shame so many people are not interested in history. It’s so fascinating and also how we learn from our failures.
Really enjoyed watching this documentary.
It seems the king and queen were mote interested in saving the crown before anything else. I am a royalist.
Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth look so alike
I have been looking on youtube for a good documentary about Mary of Teck for ages and now here it is! Thank you. Good luck!
Good??? Did you SEE how poorly this is edited????
Another angle of Q Mary is shown in the video (on yt) about her son John(he died of epilepsy in his teens). It’s called something like the missing prince. She had her hands full!
I really like thhis queen. She was so elegant, strong and she had strength.
No wonder Queen Elizabeth loved her. She learnt A LOT from Queen Mary.
I liked the way Mary would go into other peoples homes looking for items that had previously belonged to the RF. Then she would "suggest" that the item be "returned" to the RF. It is said people would hide items before she was expectec. What a woman!
Would be fascinating were it not for the migraine inducing video!
Very nice document when considering the content. However, video editing is horrible, in fact an insult to the wievers.
She is like Princess Diana
Zara Phillips looks so like her.
Who ever edited and put the film together didn't do a good job.
I think the original edit is fine it's just this upload, whoever copied and uploaded probably messed up
@@phopcorn5114 It's ok if you can't watch it go to another channel
Don't watch it then
@@lyndacollier4242 I was literally defending the upload. Get it a life
thank you very much for posting this documentary - before I watched this, I saw Queen Mary as austere and completely different than the picture I have of her now. the Scripture says that God puts kings on their thrones and I see that He also choses Queens
And, if they're really blessed, He sends them a good queen to make sure they don't cock everything up. Mary of Teck and Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon come to mind.
Love, Queen Mary!
She's known all 6 monarchs starting with Victoria except Charles being on the throne.
She did know Charles as a young child though.
I've been reading a book about queen mary She was a very intelligent person and. A caring person. In spite of what biography tell you about her She might come across as cold But I think that was a mask because she down she did care
But you have to show it. Especially to your own children.
A remarkable women and Royal.
A remarkable womAn indeed.
It seems the womEn in the royal family hold it together.
The original was likely on Timeline, Real Royalty or Absolute History. It's similar style and I've seen those historians on docs on those channels. Also may History Hit.
Loved it thanks
There’s an interesting movie here on yt about Prince John. He’s the one who died in his early teens
Read she was a klepto. Like the Queen Mother, felt she was entitled to whatever she admired in someone's home...free of cost. Aristocrats would hide their dearest possessions when she came. Also she may have had a role in the denial of asylum of Nicholas and Alexandra, which directly lead to their deaths. Often wondered how she and George could live with themselves.....
She refused to subject her family, the monarchy and the Commonwealth to the risk of being targeted by the Russians who went on to assassinate Nicholas and Alexandra and their children. Her husband the King had to admit she was right. Nicholas, his cousin, had been exiled and would likely not have been safe traveling to the palace.
The editing totally ruins what could of been an Epic documentary!!
I feel like Wallis Simpson gets a bad wrap. So much of the allegations against her are rumors that have no proof, what does have proof is that Edward and her lived happily together for the rest of Edwards life faithfully. I don't think either were fit for the Monarchy but it's taken to character assassination level. There's also a level of misogyny in that she's blamed for almost everything. Again not saying they shouldn't be criticized but I think people need to really think about where and why that criticism is coming from and if it's something that's valid.
About the only thing Wallis was falsely accused of was learning at a Chinese brothel.
@@dominaevillae28
Not true. Many lies have been told about her. E.g. she was portrayed as a gold digger and power hungry social climber when she in fact didn’t want to marry Edward but was forced into it by Edward threatening with suicide. She was portrayed as a cold hearted woman when she was described by almost everyone as cordial and very charming.
She tried to leave him when he became king but he threatened suicide. She didn't want to be Queen. He was furious she was not HRH.
What a great queen
She might have been dutiful & demure; but she was also beautiful!
I’m a Yankee who is fascinated by the British Royalty, because I just don’t get it. I usually just listen to these documentaries while trying to fall asleep.
But I’m more confused about how totally messed up the editing is on so many of these, in that the audio doesn’t match the video.
How is it possible that it’s always this bad…time after time…after these channels have posted HUNDREDS of them?
It makes no sense.
I have to wonder if it’s intentional so they won’t get popped for copyright infringement.
I saw this film on the tv recently, possibly Channel 5, with a slightly different title and without all the irritating editing blips and back to front captions.
Yes ...very anoying , but I enjoyed watching ! British history is so interesting. St least the next generations will not have to surcome to stuffy old fashioned ways ! Kate will be a great queen ! So perfekt , and William will do his very best , and that will be enough !
Well go watch that then l find this ok it's old films
@@lyndacollier4242 Yes it’s old film clips but that doesn’t account for the back to front captions and the poor editing of the new stuff. I love watching old films but this is just extremely poor editing and very bad sound quality.
Thank you for this wonderful piece. I learned so much that I did not know.😊
Princess Ann looks so much like her
God bless her
Mary of Teck was leading a frugal life ? how about the amount of jewelry she amassed ?
Her early life was quite frugal by royal standards. Her parents couldn't pay their bills.
What would Mary have said of prince andrews conduct and pay off I wonder .
Her reaction to it would have been identical to Elizabeth's. Get it sorted and out of headlines as quickly as possible. And that's what happened.
Mary learned at the foot of Queen Alexandra, who had the common touch, was compassionate and modeled Monarchy to perfection for Mary, who was her daughter in law. Edward VII & Alexandra, put the Firm on the track it is today. Opening hospitals and in touch with the people, on display basically. The masterful art of Mary was to use new tech to the Family's interest, making sure they were shown in the best light to a vast audience. Where Queen Alexandra was able to save her Sister Dagmar from the Russian Court, King George V failed and chose to fail to rescue the Russian Royals they were related to.
Her late Majesty the Queen Elizabeth bore a strong resemblance to Queen Mary 🤍
Great lady
What’s going on with the production quality of this video? It keeps reversing back-and-forth and the audio is not in sync.
Oh! She really reminds me of Zara
She is my favorite.
Boy those are some STRONG genes.
Mary passed down a lot to the current Windsors. Elizabeth II is a strong echo, as is King Charles III.
And Thank God for Prince Philip!
@UK Documentary, your videos are near impossible to watch all the way through, because there is constant skipping around, reversed text & voices not matching with the speakers. This is the SECOND video I've watched that does this & the same horrible editing each time. PLEASE fix this, so the watching experience can be more enjoyable. Thanks
Fascinating to see a glimpse of Queen Mary in a wheelchair presumably as her health deteriorated. Our Queen Elizabeth at the end would not use a wheelchair.
Great content but awfully glitchy. Why publish a glitchy film with titles backwards? Maddening.
The documentary is packed with insightful information, which I really appreciated. However, the video editing could use some fine-tuning. The constant flipping of images and the misalignment between the narration and the visuals can be distracting. The substance is there, but the presentation could be improved to match the content’s quality.
Really want to watch this any many others but the videos are I reverse and makes it very difficult to watch
The flip-flopping of photos should be banned! It is most annoying to look at a detail in a photo only to have the image change to the reverse.
Her Serene Highness, The Princess May von Teck, by birth. 1867 - 1953.
They say that speaking to her was like talking to St. Paul's cathedral. Lol
Uncanny how Princess Anne looks like Mary of Teck-
As wonderful as the history of the crown is, THERE'S NOTHING LIKE LIBERTY!
love, your American friends
Did this have to be posted here?
All citizens of the UK are just as free 😂
When we spent a summer in the Ukraine they told us you cannot say whatever you want about the royal family. Also there are hate speech codes that can get you arrested for speech. I think both these things are fair enough but they are limitations
Adding up.
I ha e only vague recollections of her but she certainly was a grand old lady
My eyes hurt watching this😢
I really would like to enjoy this video but omg you can't focus because of the terrible back & forth of scenes!! People words are upside down & flip flopping!!
Can you fix the problem with the video? It cuts and seems to be mounted upside down. Once Mary is appearing at the left and the second after she’s appearing from the right. It gives the viewer an headache after a while…
Oh my goodness, the editing on this needs to be edited
We can all learn from her.
This would have been a very good documentary but the choppiness of the video was extremely annoying.
Good woman
This was a very good documentary (I remember seeing it when first broadcast), but the way it’s been edited here is awful.
A truly interesting documentary of Queen Mary it’s just a shame about the flitting back and forth it’s a pity that it wasn’t checked before putting it on CZcams.
Very hard to watch. Pictures keep flipping from right to left or vice versa. The persons name is oftern shown first backward and then flipped so it's readable. Disconcerting.
This content seems really interesting, but it's impossible to watch with all the cuts and flipping photos. I'll just listen to it while I'm cooking instead.
