My dear friends, this is how Margaret seeks the Queen's permission to marry Peter in Season 1: ruclips.net/video/mDC7YKNGE4I/видео.html
I think after all the hardships Princess Margaret faced in her life, her marriage and divorce of Anthony Armstrong-Jones, she still loved Peter Townsend.
That is NOT Ben Miles but Timothy Dalton, my favorite James Bond, and Mr Rochester. Such a gorgeous man!
I thought that looked like him.
Makes me wonder what Lazenby could've done with this role. "... I suppose I wanted to know if our love, in the context of a whole life, had been a fleeting one or a lasting one, Sport?"
Because at the end of the day, Timothy Dalton is what you call a man’s man, and that would make some very attractive even at his age and I do agree with you. I’d love him when he was playing James Bond man took my breath away and those baby blue eyes. Wow.
Both of them portray their characters with so much feeling and depth. Who isn’t in tears by the end of this scene?
Timothy Dalton's role in the Rocketeer was one for the ages. "It wasn't a lie...it was acting."
What they don’t tell you is that the woman Peter Townsend did marry, after he was sent off to Belgium, looked remarkably like Princess Margaret, albeit 10 years younger. They remained married until he died, and I think she may still be alive. They had at least one child together, Isabelle Townsend, who was/is a model and actress
No she died the same year in 1995. They had 3 children
"On rainy afternoons when memories cloud the skies,
The wind is filled with our goodbyes...." --Alan and Marilyn Bergman
She deserved better. 😢
This is such an emotional show, its so realistic and bittersweet and sad and all of these emotions and it just hits you so beautifully.
Timothy may not be Bond anymore but he does an amazing performance on this show.
Oh wow ..... I had not seen this scene before. How beautifully written! Fiction, of course. But anyone who has a long lost love knows this feeling ..... The final conversations you still long to have. And the actors delivered those lines beautifully. So bittersweet...... 😞😢 ❤
As sweet as this was, and as much sympathy that I have for Princess Margaret's difficult life, I can't help but feel like this is very much wishful thinking on her part. It's a known fact that she was impulsive, temperamental, indulgent, and spoiled. That type of personality really isn't suited for marriage, even with the love of her life, unless she's will to make some serious changes and sacrifices. Yes, her marriage to Tony was pretty obviously doomed from the start because they both went into it for the wrong reasons, but I'm not really convinced she could have made a lifetime marriage work with ANYONE, even Peter. It all comes down to the fact that she had the chance to choose between royal life and a life with Peter. She chose royal life. That's what's endlessly frustrating about The Crown, Game of Thrones, The Tudors, The White Queen, The Empress, Magnificent Century, etc. All those stories about how much royal life sucks have such a simple solution: just leave it all behind. Especially if you're not the one wearing the crown.
Amen. So I'm glad for Japan's princess Mako Komuro. She left royalty for love.
Agreed but while it seem simple on the outside I think we need to recognize these people were born and bred as royals. That is literally all they know and arguably their only skillset. Some choose love over the crown - Edward/Wallis and Harry/Megan. I don't think even if you put financial aside (which is a big thing) that Edward/Wallis were truly that much happier with their decision. Harry and Megan we have yet to see but even now their star power is fading and they are scrambling to try to figure out what exactly to do. Netflix deals, books, etc - all that's great but eventually people stop caring because you're a civilian. Your life isn't glitz and glamor anymore.
I agree. The choice between your happiness and everything that you’ve been raised to be must be an incredibly difficult choice I can barely imagine. But it IS a choice, and once made, there is no use complaining constantly about how you regret it.
The Margaret-Townsend affair was presented in the press as a story of star-crossed lovers. That’s how Margaret chose to frame it too and spent her whole life in bitterness over having been denied Peter because he was divorced. She chose her titles and Royal privileges over a considerably less glamorous life as a military attaché’s housewife in a tiny flat in Brussels. She was a sheltered spoilt Princess who never so much as boiled water for tea. She could not have coped outside Palace walls without a phalanx of servants to do every little thing for her. Margaret was too rarified for the plebeian world. If she had chosen love over rank, it is very very doubtful that it would have lasted.
The one I have the beef with is PT. Let us look at the facts: Townsend came into the Royal household as equerry to Margaret’s father when she was 14. He was a 32-year-old married father of two young boys. The princess developed a crush on her father‘s handsome equerry, a bona fide war hero. I don’t blame her for this; young girls develop infatuations on handsome males in their orbit. When I was 12 I had a wicked crush on my 36-year-old homeroom teacher. While these feelings are intense and developmentally normal for young girls, it does not follow that it is appropriate for the much older crush object to reciprocate, Particularly when one party is a minor and the other one is married. Within two years, and Margaret only 16, the two started a secret romance which did not become official knowledge until Elizabeth’s coronation in 1953. By that time, the very recently bereaved princess still grieving her beloved papa was 21 and Townsend, almost 40, had divorced his wife the same year. The pair swore that their romance had only begun after the demise of PT’s marriage, but had in fact been going on for at least five years while he was still married. I don’t know if it was a full relationship, but it’s sufficient to say that PT was emotionally unfaithful to his wife while he flirted with a teenage princess. There were definite advantages to Townsend if he could marry into the royal family, but alas his love could not outlast the protocols while he waited for Margaret. After she broke it off, he wasted no time in getting engaged to his 19 year old Belgian secretary. By this time he was 45 years old. So we have a man who abandoned his first family to make time with the teenage daughter of his employer, and encouraged her romantic attachment to him for what I can only view as cynical self interest. When he was denied easy entry into the royal circles, he cast around for an even younger nubile girl to replace Margaret. Dashing war hero or not, but the words “cad” and “opportunist” come to mind. Margaret was a very sheltered and largely uneducated young women who lived a stifling life of isolation from peers her own age. Apart from her cousins and staff members, she had no opportunity to meet eligible age appropriate partners. I’m sure she was captivating and fun, and she was very beautiful when young. But what the hell was Peter Townsend playing at? 18 years her senior, she was young enough to be his kid and he didn’t have any business coming on to a daughter of the house who was still a child. Even if Margaret pursued him, she was a kid and the onus was on him to shut that down. The forbidden aspect of their romance made it all the more enticing and exciting but they were not right for each other, and the same would’ve been true even if he didn’t have baggage. The fact that he did just made it that much worse. Margaret rushed into a rebound revenge marriage with Anthony Armstrong Jones because her pride could not allow Peter to marry before her. She should’ve had a glittering future but her life was pretty well screwed from the age of 16 on because she couldn’t get this fixation out of her head.
@@marywenzel3199 The interesting part is that in the same realm of things, her sister was a 13 year old girl when she developed feelings for an 18 year old man she had just met once before.
He’s a Slasher… of PRICES!
I love how she reviewed her life before death!
Margaret could have married him, but it meant that she would have to give up her status of being a princess. In the end, Margaret chose the thing she loved more than anything else in the world: Herself.
Love or Status.
each have consquences but which one you can live with.
My god there are some nasty judgemental comments here. Does it occur to anyone that if she had married Peter Townsend and had the life that they planned that she would have been happy and cherished and fulfilled. My goodness, her supposed "chouce" wasn't much of a choice at all.
Choice twice
James Bond and Flittle... makes sense
Wow!
Obviously, I did not know Margaret, nor do I know how much of the information about her is true and how much rumour, but it seems to me that she would have been incapable of being a successful wife. I feel that her dominating personality, her wilfullness, and her weak decision-making skills, all of which are well documented, would have ground down all but the weakest of men. Any moderately self respecting man would have probably remained deeply in love with her as their respect for her diminished. I can imagine that she was the type of person best encountered in small doses because her forceful personality would have been like a storm on the sea with waves crashing onto everyone and everything. It did not help that, particularly during her marriage to Anthony Armstrong Jones, she was surrounded by sycophants who would have inflated her egotistical "I'm a princess" attitude. In many ways, she was her own worst enemy. I suspect that being daddy's favourite encouraged her to hold an inflated view of her status.
Had she been married to Townsend she would have been alot calmer, happier and trusting of her husband to make decisions on her part. Many participants of successful marriage have poor decision making skills but love and trust in their partner helps them to take a decision together. One doesn’t need to be perfect for a successful marriage.
And it’s just sad in my opinion because the one thing that broke them up for good was the way the royal family that she belongs to treated him and her and I really did not like that the queen her sister gave her permission I mean give me a break you have to get permission to get married when you’re part of the royal family what the hell if they were allowed just to get married, they would’ve been happy, and with their own children, it may be, Margaret would not have so much issues, because being forced to leave the one that you love, and that your heart belongs to it’s such a devastating thing to some women in the world, and without the proper help, sometimes they never recover and at the end of the day she loved him and he loved her It’s just sad that things got into their way, but even at the end, when Peter died, he loved Margaret unconditionally and that’s what counts.
@jlynnd1616- I bow to your superior knowledge!!!!🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Had she married him she'd been a lot happier. but she wouldn't have had her great children....
She could have married him, but she chose the jet-set lifestyle over being a housewife.
Not true
No, she couldn’t marry him, Queen Elizabeth forbade it.
@@helenjones9388you only understand half of it
Her entire life was tragic because she was denied her one true heart's desire. Shame on the monarchy.
She had a choice to give up her status or be with Peter. Frankly, I don't think she would've been happy to be a housewife, like Elizabeth was during Philip's Navy years.
It was a fleeting one. We know that from letters she wrote.
But she referred to him as her one true love
Why didn't Margaret leave the Royal Family to marry the love of her life, Peter?
Because when it came to choosing the man she 'loved' or being a spoilt, over-privileged princess.......she chose what she loved the most.
I don't understand why she didn't. Being in the royal family clearly made her miserable. She could've had a double whammy; be with the love of her life and leave behind the people and institution that ruined her life.
@@tariqkhader6196she was just too young to understand what she was missing. This is why she is reviewing her life and realising and regretting her decisions
