    To me, the most fascinating character in the third season is Princess Alice, Philip's mother. I read up on her and watched a documentary about her life, which was at once bizarre, tragic and heroic.

      @Capitalist Pig but this season ended with the jubilee right? and the lord mountbatten's assassination was later in 1979. Maybe could be the first chapter at season 4?

    • @MzShaybutta
      @MzShaybutta Před 4 lety +15

      I agree.. I didn't know about her until this series unfortunately, but I did some research on her, and what a tragic figure who turned her life into a heroic novel.. Her story is fascinating indeed.

      @Capitalist Pig Mountbatten was murdered in August 1979. Season 3 appears to end in the summer of 1977. Diana does not appear on the scene until later in 1977. She is just one character in a multitude of characters.
      As an aside, to all intents and purposes Britain had been at war with Ireland since 1969. The 1970s were the bloodiest years and Ireland understandably distanced itself from the IRA although it took another 10+ years for the Good Friday agreement to be signed.

      I ended up going to wikipedia a lot this season as well, it really hit me. Which is why I'm sad this video ended up being a spoiler for the season 4 I didn't know was happening instead of a discussion about these story points.

      I discovered Princess Alice wore a purple outfit matching in cut Queen Mary's, not a nuns habit. So, that was disappointing. I do hope they don't just stuff Lord Mountbatten under a rug.

    My favourite episode was Moondust! I think you really have to understand that this episode is about being human! It might not be historically accurate and if you understand it, you'll see that is entirely about Philip (the Queen if more something of a sidekick here) and not about the moon landing. It could have been any other historical milestone. It moved me so deeply since Philip believes that these astronauts are "it", great inspiring humans. When in fact, they were dull, not interested in being famous ambassadors and having the most trivial thoughts whilst being up their in space and whilst stepping on the moon. As Elizabeth explains, they were perfect for their job because they are not very emotional and perfectly calm for crisis situations. I think it affects all of us that we have the illusion that some of our idols are perfect human beings. I think it's also called the "halo effect". Just because someone is indeed a fantastic lawyer that doesn't mean that he is a compassionate, empathic or otherwise great human being, too. He could be the biggest selfish asshole out there, but some people would still idolize him because he is so great at that one thing and assume that he is a great person one has to look up to.
    So overall I found this episode very humbling and sort of honest because it shows what is happening behind a facade. Even if Philip might have never felt that. Great message, though. It could also mean that all accomplishments will somewhen just be dust and are therefore, temporary.

  • @antoniobittarperdomoyboliv7501

    I watched the whole season in 3 days. Wow. Wow! My favorite episode was the beginning of Charles' and Camilla's affair and how Josh played a timid, heartbroken prince. HOWEVER, I remind myself that Charles was never that naïve and generous in real life. They all knew very well they were using Diana as a scapegoat (waiting anxiously for the 4th season). Smart writer, he blamed the Queen Mother and Lord Mountbatten for splitting Charles and Camilla and showed an Elizabeth concerned with his son's happiness.

A royal biographer has said that this season is hiding anti monarchist sentiment. I don't think that there is a legit bias towards the Queen and Charles with their interpretation. Remember, episode six's ending. The Queen was cruel as hell. In a way that we haven't seen in the show. This show, btw, was supposed to be looking about Queen Elizabeth looking in. I read an audience review on rotten tomatoes that hit a cord with me. It was saying that "This season is heavy and depressing. Seasons 1 and 2 were more entertaining.". I have to admit that the heavy and depressing is very true because of that other side in their characters. The last four episodes for me were difficult to take in. It showed a dark side to them that I just couldn't handle. I have mixed feelings about some of the parts and I am falling for introspection about what was presented. Sorry for the long reply.

      They will. The episodes build up on each other. Remember, Lord Mountbatten was fired as Chief of the Defence Staff because he refused to do defence cuts as per the Harold Wilson budget cuts. He refused because he believed that the enemies of the United Kingdom were increasing their spending. You would have noticed this. If you have been listening closely, you'll know.

    Does anybody else absolutely despise the Queen Mother as depicted in The Crown besides me? It really feels like the writers and show runners are using her as the primary antagonist of the series. The funny thing is they might not be wrong. I went looking for information about her after watching season 3 and found a fascinating article written a decade ago in 2009 (years before The Crown was conceived). The writer of the article in question depicted her as being racist, classist, venal and vindictive. She certainly blamed Edward VIII for the death of her husband George VI and claimed to have never wanted to be Queen though she certainly seemed to relish the role. She was born a commoner but was apparently quite hostile towards the idea of other commoners (especially women it seemed) marrying into the royal family. It is quite clear now that Prince Charles should have been allowed to marry Camilla Shand when they first met but was prevented from doing so by the traditionalist of the family and it is quite easy to believe the Queen Mother played a part in that. Truth or fiction, fact or exaggeration The Crown certainly makes her appear highly unlikable IMO.

      Ashleigh Elizabeth surprising the Queen Mother is one of the popular royal figures after the Queen, especially that Charles and Andrew were getting unpopular. She was actually born as an aristocrat (her father was an Earl and she was titled as a Lady, similar to Diana). Back in season 2 she was worried about the growing decline of deference, as shown in the final scenes of Episode 5 (Marionettes). But you’re also correct that she’s also a hypocrite (and most of the royals are also like that) especially on her treatment of Margaret and blatantly preferring Tony over her own daughter as seen in season 3 finale.

Some wonderful points were made (no idea if they are true, but they fit the image) and the actor gave a fine portrayal. Amusing how he ended up confiding in the priests he had disparaged. I thought omitting him from this review was a mistake - a glaring omission in my opinion. ( P S I also saw developing wisdom in the Queen when she consoled the Duke by talking about them having the right qualifications for the job of astronaut allowing them to be successful. Wonder if the writers surmised that or if it was reported.)

      Arya1999: It wasn’t pointless as a recap of season three before watching season four or as a trailer for season three for people who haven’t seen it. Perfect in that regard. The video was just not titled correctly.

    I enjoyed it but I’m surprised they never covered Princess Annes marriage to Captain Mark Philips in ‘73. That’s a major part of the Royals life in the 70s

    makes a plea to Tywin Lanni..I mean Lord Mountbatten 😂😂😂 all jokes aside, Netflix is knocking this one out of the park. It’s brilliant, with equally brilliant actors! Sometimes it’s hard to get past the brown eyes though.

    I love how the narrator references the other roles the cast has played. When I watched season 3 of the Crown I was so happy to see several familiar faces, especially Tywin Lannister and Bellatrix Lestrange.

      I also wonder if people in the US are aware of the native languages in Britain - English, Welsh and Gaelic (Scottish Gaelic being different from Irish Gaelic).

    Throughout Season Three, I thought I was glimpsing an image Carol Burnett as QE II. Burnett used to spoof QE II occasionally on her comedy hour years ago.

    I looked up the Crown IMDB pages and no mention is made of Josh O'connor as Charles ? Weird ? Even the episode where he takes up most of the episode he is unknown ! He is fantastic !

      Josh was in the PBS series THE DURELLS OF CORFU as the oldest son. I found his character kind of annoying, though I loved the show. I really like him as Prince Charles.
