I know you're all wondering, and yes, I've been cast as Elphaba in the live-action Wicked! Just kidding, but we heard your comments, and hope the video is otherwise fun to watch.
Haha I was only ten seconds into the video and I had to pop down into the comments to see what commenters had to say about the undeniable green cast of the presenter's skin (o;
Totally thought my TV was broken 😂
This is what happens when you try to defy gravity xD
lol...thought of it right away! :-)
As long as you're fine health-wise, we're happy.
Can’t wait for season 4 when Diana enters the picture
I look forward to seeing Gillian Anderson as Margaret Thatcher
I'm dreading it. I just hope they don't go with the image of the wronged innocent young girl. I may have to stop watching it if they do.
@@louisericketts6738 Yes, I agree with you on that one. Just meant that I think Gilliam Anderson is a great actress. Let's face it, although I enjoy watching the show like millions of others, there's plenty of things in it that aren't exactly historically accurate...
@@beckyl1450 Yes it's interesting casting. It's the Diana story that I am dreading.
Falkland war, coal miners strike, IRA bombing as well as assassination of Lord Mountbatten, marriage of Charles and Diana. I hope they have the constitution of Canada with her speech in 1982.
A party guest (to Princess Margaret): "And how is the Queen?" Princess Margaret: "Which one, my sister, my mother or my husband?"
Margaret was the savage royal 😂
HAHAHAHAHAHA. Touche’
@@katerinaliakou5549 Margaret in her early life very witty and funny glamourous and after denied marriage to Peter T she turned bitter and sacastic but not savage.
😂😂😂
Hahahahahahah 👍💙
I also like to point out that they really really cast Princess Anne so accurately... She looked exactly like the real Anne...
I agree! Best casting of Seasons 3 & 4.
I am in agreement with both Linda Bogert and Freddy Vuite. She really does look like Anne when she was a young woman. It's a shame that she is being replaced by another actress called Claudia Harrison hi look NOTHING like Erin Doherty hi played Anne in series 3 and 4.
@@tomspence8506 They changed the actors because the time periods are changing, Erin Doherty played Anne on season 3, and 4 while she was in her 20s and late 30s, Season 5 and 6 is gonna be Anne in her 40s and early 50s
Princess Anne ended up being one of my favorites in The Crown. I didn’t realize she was so beautiful.
@@Mom2Aiden08 She's not
What about Princess Alice, the mother of Prince Phillip? When I heard she was going to be in this season I got excited. This was a woman that though born deaf learned to speak as if she could hear and learned to read lips in several languages. She helped hide Jews during WWII with her deafness as a way to convince authorizes she did not understand them. She was brilliant and should have had more screen time in my opinion.
Kim Hooper . There should be an entire documentary about just her. She has quite a story. If you come across one, let me know.
@@susanmetz9892 There is one. Look up the Queen's mother in law. It is a Timeline documentary and very informative
Kim Hooper . Thank you. I will!
Susan Metz
There is a documentary on RUclips about Alice. It’s very enlightening.
artz11 . Thanks.
I just noticed that the Queen was 38 in s3 e1 and looked like 55..... I love Olivia as the queen, but that was too early. They could’ve kept the old cast for s3
Totally agree.
Even if you look at the queens pictures she aged quite significantly after 35 and began to look very old
Also in season 3, the queen and Margaret have brown eyes. In seasons 1&2 they have very striking blue eyes.
Agreed and I dont care for Coleman
Wow really? I started season three thinking the queen was in her late 40s now. I definitely agree that they could’ve kept the old cast for season three and had the older cast for season four. I would have to love see Claire Foy and Vanessa Kirby tackle season 3.
Season 4 with Diana and Margaret Thatcher is what I am waiting the most
Yesssss
Oh yes.
Gillian Anderson "scully" from X-Files is supposed to play Thatcher
Same girl sammmmeeee !!!!!!!! I can’t wait to see diana
Trailer for season 4 is out now!
Princess Anne had the biggest balls in the whole family
maria joão santos . It’s hard to watch her in interviews. She is emotionally awkward.
@@susanmetz9892 Princess Anne has been mocked by the media since she was a child and she is a very no bullshit woman. So, it's probably a mixture of her not really giving a hell what they have to say and not caring how she comes off because she's heard it all before.
@@iloveyourunclebob I thought Princess anne acted like her dad.
Her and queen Mary! They are amazing women :)
Jaded Wonderland why was she mocked ?
The Queen actually didn’t intervene in Charles and Camilla and the show specifically shows that. It was the doing of Lord Mountbatten and the Queen Mother.
We actually do not know what did she actually do in private. And we will never know. "The Crown" has the purpose to present HM and Charles as best as possible. Queen Mother and M are both dead, why not blame them?
The Queen Mother proposed that Diana be Charles's bride; she din't approve of Camilla as she'd been around the block a bit.
Alexx J I agree. I can’t help but think it was political (don’t know if that’s the right word when referring to the monarchy) to portray Charles and Camilla’s early relationship in such a rosy light.
Agreed - that is also what I heard/read about the event. Maybe it wasn’t so invasive, but maybe they did have a heavy hand.
teambeining That’s what’s interesting about the Crown. We can’t necessarily fact check the inner workings because the actual monarchy picks and chooses what becomes public knowledge concerning their family. The only time we get glimpse of the full truth is through scandals.
I loved the portrayal of Prince Philipp's "midlife crisis" it seemed so authentic and understandable.
I'm kind if sad that it is fabricated. 😔
Couldn't agree more. That scene with Philip and the astronauts was so sad and powerful!
It’s more of an exaggerated reality. Prince Philip was fascinated with technology, and was an enthusiastic promoter of it. But around the same time he also started to see value in religion and spirituality. It just wasn’t a dramatic midlife crisis.
Oh I’m not sure Ms. mojo is the pinnacle of historical research. She can’t prove the conversation didn’t happen.
Maybe the writers know things we don’t , maybe not but I’m not confident in this channel being the harbinger of historical accuracy.
@@jonathanraithel5726
Thank you Sherlock. We are quite aware of this NOT being a documentary.
see, that's why I hate these kind of dramas. that's a big let down when they fabricate.
Prince Philip: We need to talk to you about your brother
Princess Anne: Which one? I have 3
Me: 🤣🤣🤣🤣
we never here about Edward because he's gay
@@taroman7100 he has a wife
The Bull Queen. Ever to the point!
Joanie Adams. You lie. No he’s not.
@@taroman7100 dude's married with two children and is the only one of the Queen's children who didn't get divorced.
I wished they covered Anne’s kidnap attempt
Sedd . I think in this season, Anne is a bit young for that event. I think she was only 24 when that occurred. I hope that is covered in season 4 though. I’m curious to see how the royal family responded. I’d like to find out more about her relationship with Andrew Parker Bowles.
And her wedding to Captain Mark Philips. Her wedding especially put the pressure on Charles to find a wife as well. It even took place on his 25th birthday.
@@daisycook2366 . I'd like to find out more about the Anne and Andrew Parker Bowles relationship.
@@susanmetz9892 She was 23 when that occurred!
DONUTBUZZCUT . How old is her character in season 3 of the Crown? I was thinking 18 or 19
Everyone was so well acted and casted. It blew me away.
You must be joking. The casting is abysmal but in s1 and s2 the acting was good but got progressively worse in subsequent series. From your name I guess that you are not a subject of HM therefore have little knowledge of how the royals look or speak.
1:57 The abdication didn't bring Elizabeth into the line of succession - it just moved her one place up the line from second to first, to heiress presumptive.
@mountaingal homemaker David was infertil after catching mumps as a child.
What's the diff between heir apparent and heir presumptive, please? Thx :)
@@TheCandiceWang As a British person who knows about these things, please may I explain?
What I'm going to explain to you has now changed as of October 2011, but we'll talk about the change in law in a bit.
An heir apparent is the person who, unless they die, WILL become King on the death of their mother or father who is the sovereign. Charles is the heir apparent. He cannot be overtaken by ANY other person.
An heir presumptive is the person who, unless they die, is PRESUMED will become Queen on the death of her mother or father who is the sovereign.
Now, you are wondering why I said King for heir apparent, and Queen for heir presumptive? Good question!
Before the Queen changed the laws regarding primogeniture, (on 28 October 2011) ANY female born to someone in the line of succession, would be lower in the line of succession, to ANY males born after her. A good example of this is Princess Anne. Princess Anne is the Queen's SECOND child but is lower in the line of succession than her two younger brothers, Andrew and Edward, and their offspring and their offspring's offspring. This is the way aristocracy works and always has been.
Now, the reason the previous person HALF correctly (it is heir presumptive, not heiress presumptive) referred to Princess Elizabeth as the heir presumptive is because, at the time of her uncle David's (Edward VIII) abdication in 1936, not only was her mother, aged 36, still young enough to have had another child who may have been male, but as long as her father was alive he could have had a legitimate son who would have outranked her - if her mother had died and George VI remarried and produced a son.
Now, in the same year that William and Catherine married, and before the birth of any children, a changed in primogeniture law was passed by the Queen, which had to be agreed by the heads of state of every Commonwealth country, so that any girls born AFTER this date would not have younger brothers being above them in the line of succession. If William and Catherine's first-born had been a girl, we would have a Queen after William. What the change in law DOESN'T do is to change the order of succession for people born before this date.
Heir apparent: Charles
2: William
3: George
4: Charlotte
5: Louis
6: Harry
7: Archie
8: Lilibet
9: Andrew
10: Beatrice (when Beatrice's baby arrives everyone moves down one place!)
11: Eugenie
12: August Brooksbank
13: Edward
14: James, Viscount Severn
15: Lady Louise Windsor
16: Princess Anne
17: Peter Phillips
18: Savannah Phillips
19: Isla Phillips
20: Zara Tindall
As Edward had no children Elizabeth would have become queen upon his death if the abdication hadn't happened.
It really bothers me that they completely skipped over the attempted kidnapping of Princess Anne.
I'm pretty sure both those things haven't happened yet and will happen in later seasons
@@simonorourke4465 they already passed it. The attempted kidnapping was in 74 and the photographs of Margaret and her boyfriend were in 76. Next season they're moving into the 80s and Princess Diana. They did mix up the time line anyway because Margaret's overdose was actually in 74, well before the scene that came before it of her and her boyfriend at the beach.. So, who knows.
I didn’t know that happened!! Dang I would have liked to learn/watch that
As soon as the Aberfan episode started and the kid asked what day it was. My heart sunk as i knew some seriously dark shit was about to happen :(
"l don't go to accidents" if Queen really said to this how nasty and lack 9f emotion when this wasn't a mere accident so many children died and she should have attended the funeral, she never was the peoples queen
Since Edward and Wallis never had kids, Elizabeth would have been Queen anyway
But much, much later. Bertie would have been alive longer and Elizabeth would have been crowned in her 50's or something
Elizabeth was second in line of succession as soon as she was born. The Prince of Wales was unmarried, so Prince Albert was the hier apparent and so his first daughter was next in line.
WDKimball. Heir
I THINK Elizabeth would have been queen even if the Duke of Windsor & Wallace had had children. By abdicating he gave up the right of succession.
Bonnie Long. I’m 81, English, and know everything about our royal family. Yes Elizabeth would have been Queen.
Windsor had abdicated, end of his ‘line’ even if there had been children.
I particularly like how msmojo claims these wrongs are purely speculative, while trying to counter them with pure speculation
Get lost flat-earther.
buffalobillbuffalove. msmojo do that a lot. Seems that they need to jump on the bandwagon to make themselves seem relevent to the topic. When in fact they never do have the full facts to comment or offer an opinion.
They are using the palace’s version of the story to counter them obviously the Royals will deny things such as Princess Margaret did not try to overdose and was result of toxic buildup from years lol .... Just wait for next season and see what Mojo talks about Diana’s Death and Charles & Camilla’s marriage lol
You forgot to mention the incredible story of Prince Phillip's mother, that looked like a fantasy, but was mostly true, except the part where she is interviewed by The Guardian
The Aberfan is my fave episode. It put shivers down my spine on what happened to those poor children and other people who perished.
You know what the Crown got wrong and so far no one has made an actual complain? The Queens and Princess Margaret’s eye color!! It broke the inmerssion for me.
Bego Bertran you’re so right! I felt very dissapointed this season, and I think they killed the magic of the past seasons, they should have not change the actors, they just needed put makeup to look older!!! This is a real shame because The Crown is a jewel from Netflix..
That just really cheesed me to see that. Their eyes were BLUE, keep them blue!!
Oh yes!! It bothered me from the first minute of season 3. Not only the real persons has/had blue eyes but also the actresses in the previous seasons so it was rather weird and wrong
The Crown tried REALLY hard to keep their eyes blue! First they used contact lenses, then they CGI'd them a la GOT White Walker style, but both Olivia Coleman and HBC are SO expressive with the littlest eye movement, it makes up a HUGE part of both their acting abilities. The showrunners felt like both methods just RUINED the performances, so finally they said, "I guess well have to have brown eyed Windsors, and everyone will have to get over it."
Yes it bothered me as well, especially Coleman, I was not a fan of her as the queen
I was shocked to find out that camilla Parker bowls's grandmother was the mistress to the previous prince of Wales as well. .... now I see u camilla !!!!!!! 😈😅
Professional Mistresses.. Apparently, it's a job now.. 😂😂😂
And also that was the first thing she actually said to Charles when they met for the first time: "My great-grandmother and your great-great-grandfather were lovers. So how about it?". It is well documented.
This is SO very funny! Seeing all these comments from non-British people shocked or surprised at things we've known in Britain for DECADES! There's even a street in Bloomsbury, near the British Museum, called Keppel Street, after Edward VII's mistress! Even in early 1981, when Diana was first spotted, by the press, as Charles' new girlfriend, his old girlfriends' photos were all over the newspapers with loads of reporters commenting that a previous girlfriend (Camilla) had a great-grandmother who'd been mistress to Charles' great-great-grandfather and what it was publicly known that she had said to Charles on one of their first meetings, ie, "My great-grandmother was ******* your great-great-grandfather - how about it?" REALLY funny watching the rest of the world learn the stuff that, although not exactly taught in our schools, is most definitely stuff that is learned from our parents and grandparents! 🤣
@@KaJeTheRiPPer god dont be so silly. of course being a royal favourite is a job.
I lived with Erin who plays Princess Anne for 11 years She would hear a song once when she was four and sing it word for word Pitch perfect She’s an outstanding natural talent for sure
Related to her? She makes the princess royal look so scary, heheheh. Erin's chops are brilliant.
2:10 Princess Elizabeth was already in line for succession before abdication, as David had no heirs. She just would have ascended in the 70s instead of the 50s
And she would've a lot longer to be witb her family. Maybe her children wouldn't have felt so distant from her and she wouldn't spend so much time from them growing up
To say a suicide attempt is just a cry out of attention is so wrong and I'm so tired of people being swiped under the rug. At the time someone takes enough pills to never wake up is a true suicide attempt in that moment thet wanf to die to never feel that way again
If someone takes sleeping pills on a regular basis for years (as Margaret did) one needs higher doses as time goes by. So, it is not all that difficult to have a bad night and overdose by taking 2 or 3 pills... still not be able to fall asleep, then take 3 or 4 more... etc.
The shows producers and actors in interviews have said that they take liberties with the show deliberately. They called it “a fictional story based on real characters”.
Can’t wait for season 4. Bring on Diana Spencer and Margaret Thatcher!
Sedd . I hope they show how messed up she really was behind closed doors and not just the angelic public figure that everyone adored. Have you watched the documentary, “ Diana: In HerOwn Words” on Netflix? It’s a good one.
I'm sorry. But every time I hear the name Margaret Thatcher, I am unable to stop the image of Austin Powers screaming, "Margaret Thatcher naked on cold day! Margaret Thatcher naked on a cold day!"
I'm scarred for life.
merickful . That’s funny. Now every time I hear the name Margaret Thatcher, I’ll think of Austin Powers also. Lol
@@susanmetz9892 but how was she actually in closed doors though?
yo lo . As I said, watch the documentary on Netflix called, “Diana In Her Own words”. She narrates the documentary herself and openly discussed how much mental anguish she suffered. She openly admitted to extreme mood swing, she cried all the time, inflicted self harm and had multiple suicide attempts. Those were her own admissions.
I’m pretty sure I’ve seen a documentary on Netflix “House of Windsor” where they showed the letters Charles wrote to his uncle and the other way around. Yet everyone claims there is no evidence that they corresponded through letters. I’m so confused 😅
Lisa Maria van Harmelen . I agree. I watched that as well.
@@susanmetz9892 Yes ma'am I watched as well and I agree!!
Wow I live in the place that is your last name
The Duke of Windsor is the biggest insult title.
I saw that documentary!! Absolutely loved it
The Queen kissing Churchill's head? Highly unlikely.
Gary Hunt. Not unlikely. Just never ever would have happened.
@@margaretlavender4418 it's a sarcastic comment because obviously we would know that it would never happen and only for tv lmao
It may be true but it really does give you an idea about how much he is missed
The Queen WAS ALWAYS in the line of succession, it was just presumed that her father's older brother would marry correctly and have children
Cathryn Cavaney ...and David never did have children, so the crown would have gone to her father and eventually to her anyways.
@@billiebuffalo well, David lived longer so it would have went straight to Elizabeth, not her father. Unless of course David would have married someone else and had children. The whole reason he abdicated was because of Wallace. So, it might have been completely different if he didn't abdicate and married someone they wanted him to.
Jaded Wonderland the Duke of Windsor had mumps as a teenager. None of his many girlfriends or mistresses ever got pregnant, nor did his wife, and many historians think now he was probably sterile. His father King George (whatever number he was- V?) was on record as saying he hoped Edward (or David, as the family called him) would never have children and “nothing will keep Bertie and Lilibet from the Crown.” Queen Mary worked with Elizabeth’s governess to make sure Elizabeth had a more suitable education for a Queen than her mother had planned. Which The Crown kind of forgets about in the episode where Elizabeth is reading the riot act to her mother about her lack of education. She didn’t learn Trigonometry but she was well educated in languages, history and constitutional law. If it had been left up to her mother she probably wouldn’t have been as well educated, but Queen Mary was extremely well educated for a woman of her time and as Queen, wife of the reigning king, she actually had more say about Elizabeth’s education than her parents did.
@@iloveyourunclebob the stress of being King during WW2 possibly had a lot to do with King George VI's early death.....
@@cathryncavaney5070 King George was a chain saw smoker though so that also played a role in his health as well
Oh no, Charles was in fairly regular communication with the Duke of Windsor and visited him once. Also, Jean Lapotaire gave a beautiful portrayal of Princess Andrew (nee Alice of Battenberg) of Greece and Denmark, Prince Phillip's mother. The Queen and Prince Phillip share a common ancestor as great-great grandchildren of Queen Victoria. Her great-grandfather was Edward VII, and Phillip's great-grandmother was Princess Alice, younger sister of Edward VII.
"Polio boy, tippy-ti-top, tippy-ti-top!!" That scene is hilarious!! Helen Bonham Carter is the mood 😂😂😂
Helena Bonham Carter
I honestly don't mind if the Moondust episode was historically inaccurate. No episodes in any series I've watched have made me relate so much. Love it endlessly!
I don’t want to be too critical here, but it’s not Aber’F’an, it’s pronounced as Aber’V’an.
Aiden S. Shin Thank you
As with most languages, pronunciation and spelling are different and cannot be compared. Furthermore, The English language is not the same as Welsh and also cannot be compared. Critical...no, but circumstantially incorrect, yes.
In Welsh, the letter F is pronounced as a V,
Nobody cares
@@arikosubumo2402
Judging by your reply, that's not true.
Talk about getting things wrong: the actor's name is MENZIES, not Mingus (pot/kettle)
😂 I noticed that too
Menzies is one of those English or Scottish names that is pronounced differently than how its written. They are correct, it is pronounced Mingis. Look it up :)
@@melaniehill318 Thank you!
Right?! I came to comment on this. Hard to understand they get the actors name wrong.
Menzies is actually pronounced “Mingus” ? Interesting.
You also forgot to mention Tony cheated on Margaret too and he was very nasty to her leaving nasty notes.
They mentioned the notes in the series... she read some out in that confrontation scene...
They do show Tony cheating on her with his future wife, Lucy Hoggs.
What about Princess Alice, the mother of Prince Phillip? When I heard she was going to be in this season I got excited. This was a woman that though born deaf learned to speak as if she could hear and learned to read lips in several languages. She helped hide Jews during WWII with her deafness as a way to convince authorizes she did not understand them. She was brilliant and should have had more screen time in my opinion.
That was true?
I feel so bad for margaret. She wasnt allowed to marry a WAR HERO but was later allowed to marry a photographer??? Then had to watch her family do as they please? I think if she had married him her life would have been better.
The Crown would still have eventually passed to the Queen if her uncle had been allowed to marry Wallis and still be King - Edward and Wallis had no children.
Another historical "slip". In the 1st episode of season 3, we see the Queen's other living uncle, Henry, Duke of Gloucester at a dinner party. His wife Alice teases him about his perfect "spy" qualities--unnoticeable and unremarkable. He shoots a retort back to her. They're both seen briefly in other episodes (without dialogue) when the family "convenes". But he's also seen (albeit quite briefly) at the end of the last episode, when the Queen walks past her family on her way to her golden carriage during her Silver Jubilee celebration. That would be 1977. The Duke of Gloucester died in 1974. He shouldn't be there.
It's a drama show, not History Channel🤦🏽♂️
EXACTLY!
They get a lot right, but you are correct, this is not the History channel.
In all fainess, they don't show history on the History Channel any more.
I mean, The Crown gets more right than the History Channel does 90% of the time. You know who REALLY broke up Charles and Camilla? ALIENS.
I know, but it's portrayed as a quasi documentary. In some cases there was very little need to change facts and timings of events. That said, it's very well made and enjoyable watching.
The series is not a documentary, it is a fictional series based upon some known events and figures. Using the word ‘wrong’ is ridiculous!
People definitely act like the show is a documentary lol
It upsets me that they make camila the only woman Charles ever loved when he had affairs with so many other women. Most of which he asked to marry him, some were his cousins.
Charles should have put up a fight to marry Camilla if he loved her that much!
Church of England's rules for a future monarch applied, as monarch he would be head of the church.
she was not in love with him
Elizabeth was always destined to be queen. Assume Edward VIII had not abdicated and married Wallis. He had no children, and brother would have died of lung cancer. Elizabeth would have become Queen 1972.
Edward still had a chance to have kids with a different woman, unless he was the problem but even if he was they would have faked a pregnancy
Evelynwashere 1 The point I was making - once Edward chose Wallis, even had he not abdicated Elizabeth was going to queen. Wallis was in her 40s and unlikely to bear children.
His plan to marry Wallis necessitated the abdication. If he didn't abdicate, he couldn't have married Wallis and would have likely married someone else eventually. At the time, both marrying Wallis and keeping the crown were not possible.
Well yes and no... she’s in the line, but as a hold every just assumed Edward as the oldest brother would have his own family. So it wasn’t till the queen was 10 ish was it obvious that was her fate. That’s why she preps a lot of family members now as that ‘mistake’ lol
Assuming the monarchy survived WW2 and Edward vii surrendering to Germany
The show is not supposed to be historically accurate, I believe the show's creator has stated that previously. While, yes, there is some historical accuracy, a lot is expanded or altered to suit the narrative.
Well, most of the private things could be truth. How anyone will know but the family members? The letters to the Duke, the kiss on Churchill, the plot to separate Charles and Camila.
I agree. Although dramatic, there are things that might have ocurred.
Great video, Emily! Thanks for keeping people informed!
In s3 ep2 I would've loved that Vannesa Kirby was the one playing Margaret. :(
Amen!
You did a good job Emily! Thanks for the video on The Crown.
I think it’s quite frightening that many people are treating this series as a documentary. It’s just drama. It may probably be based on fact; however, a director may put whatever slant he may want on the drama. Truth doesn’t necessarily come into it.
Seriously, if you put make up on someone, check with the lights you intend to use.... The poor Emily is literally greenish...
Yes
The best part of the video is when the narrator is actually green in colour.
Yeah that scene with queen Elizabeth kiss Churchill on the forehead was kinda cringey that something the real queen Elizabeth wouldn’t do that
It was a paralel to the scene where Churchill kissed queen's forehead in the first season. It was meant to show their close relationship probably.
We don’t know what goes on behind closed doors. We don’t know what she does
T. K. You may not but the inphograthic show does
Kind of
Most of the other characters in this show look somewhat like the people they're portraying. Prince Charles especially. But the casting of Camilla was outrageous. This actress is gorgeous, and while Camilla may not be the shrew most people thought she was in the early 90's at least, Camille was decidedly never pretty.
actress not gorgeous but certainly not camilla
Camilla always had great bone structure and lovely hair.
Agree
Actress pretty enough to compete with Diana. Camilla not so much.
Number 1 though!! 😲
And that was the opening episode... I thought I might choke on my popcorn in the near future if they kept up that level of drama!
The crown wasn’t just good...wasn’t just great!!! It was downright delicious!!!! Netflix crack!!! Can’t wait for season 5 😀
Emily's lighting doesn't look good. It makes her skin look green.
Hi ms mojo :) i like your chanel.. I'm your fan.. Most of your contents are what I'm looking for on youtube..!! Great job ms mojo!! 🙌🙌👍👍
Why is she green?
Ha she is! I had to look twice
Oh, good. I'm not having a stroke, then...
I was just thinking the same thing. I think the hot pink shade she is wearing is throwing off the white balance.
Omg Ellen, you can’t just ask people why they’re green.
@@LittleMissV haha ur a funny mean girl
Good to see Tobias Menzies (Outlander) playing Prince Phillip in later years
the actress who played the queen was a bit old for the queen age at the time but casting helena bonham carter was great
Because David had no Heirs Elizabeth would have become Queen anyway. She was third in line of succession.
What about Prince Phillips mum, I loved that part
Very very great list I like it a lot
Ummmm actually it’s been wildly confirmed that the family would not approve the relationship and did intervene with Charles??
???
I think it's interesting that people think that Queen elizabeth became queen only because her uncle abdicated. In truth, since Edward never had children the crown would have passed to her father then her anyway.
Well, at the time, no one knew whether or not he'd have children. It was just assumed he would have. Of course now we can look back and shrug and say it wouldn't have made a difference, except that Elizabeth's reign would have been greatly shortened.
Did she just call tobias menses tobias "mingus"?
It sounded like she did. She's not even pretending to pronounce things correctly
I was in Scotland years ago and visited Castle Menzies, and it actually is pronounced something like Mengus . Its something to do with spellings and pronunciations in Scottish Gaelic. There are lots of things pronounced differently than how they are spelled. Probably in the US the pronunciation changed to match the spelling, according to English language pronunciations instead of Gaelic.
Men yeez
True. Menzies aviation calls itself 'Mengis'
In Scotland, Menzies can and is also pronounced Mengus.
Much has been made about the issue of "historical fact." It doesn't really bother me that for purposes of drama, some artistic license was taken in the show. As one person observed, "it's not the history channel." Most of the actors in this series are incredibly talented. Tobias Menzies is an absolute joy to watch, even in a role where he's reserved. One casting decision that possibly fell short; I would rather have seen someone else in the role of princess Margaret. Helena Bonham Carter has her own appeal but her performances strike me as too stylized. Maybe I just really wanted to like Princess Margaret. and her younger version was played much more sympathetically by Vanessa Kirby. Overall, I loved season three. Completely made me rethink my opinion about Charles and I felt helped me understand that family a little better regardless of certain artistic liberties.
1:19 "Tobias Mingus" classic gag
Great video but all I keep thinking of is... wow that is the voice of MsMojo?! 😲
Any scene that doesn't contain an animal where the queen expresses emotion is WRONG anyway !
I've said it before, but they are bound to take creative license with the show. There is no way to know every detail. Plus there is pacing consider.
Exactly. I think people forget it is not a documentary. It is a tv drama that creates stories (some more fictional than others) around some key real life events. I enjoy the series, however I understand that it would have many elements of creative license.
The chap that acts as Prince Phillip sounds more like Charles the Prince of Wales himself lol
It seems that in an attempt to ride the popularity of The Crown, Ms. Mojo created a video without actual research. Tobias Mingus? AberFan? Did they actually watch the show?
Season 1 was the best. Season2 was also good. Season 3 was just fine. A major step down from the first two seasons. Still loved the performances of the actors and the aberfan episode.
Msmojo. Please more crown videos :)
We have one on the best outfits in the works :)
I'm having a difficult time with S3 😐 Maybe because Foy is gone, idk.. I know I'm gonna have to watch it another time.
As much as I value the actors in this series, amazing actors, but I think Margaret and Queenie had the wrong casting, the same as the Queen mum. Though Claire Foy was perfect though, same eyes and very much like a young Elizabeth.
I'm a big Royal watcher and a huge fan of this show. However, I suspected some of it was fiction. Thanks for clarifying these points
Good vid. Thanks.
Queen Elizabeth has a terrible "habit" of reacting waaay too slowly to tragedies.
I don't remember the scene in 03:35
Can anyone tell me the episode?
"... taken faith in Christianity" - what an odd phrase
1.19 The actor who plays Phillip is Tobias MENZIES, NOT Tobias Mingus.
You pronounce the 'f' in in 'Aberfan' more like a 'v' - in Welsh its two 'f's together that denote same sound as an 'f' in English.
Didn't know that, but come on... Most of people don't speak Welsh
This bugged me too
@@anandadaquino3604 Doesn't matter if they don't speak Welsh. If you are going to do a video of a subject, its kind of important that you get the facts right, names, places, etc. Its also called respect.
@@anandadaquino3604 Which is why even if you don't speak a language you should Google the right pronunciation beforehand.
Wait, so Samuel West played Anthony Blunt twice on screen? Cambridge Spies and The Crown? And they didn't feel the need to point this out?
And yet, those of us around in the late 1960's had the opportunity to watch the documentary at the time. :)
Just a quick reminder that some of this may not be accurate. There’s so much detail that the writers nor anyone else, actually know is fact. Only Queen Liz knows... and apparently she’s not confirming or denying anything from The Crown.
Elizabeth was always in the line of succession. If The Duke of Windsor had never abdicated, her father probably would’ve still passed away relatively young, from lung cancer, leaving Elizabeth as her childless uncle’s heir. She would’ve had more time as a wife & mother before becoming queen. But she would’ve become queen, eventually
At my first glance at the thumbnail, I wondered why Matt Hancock was in the series.
from a filmmaker perspective (my own), fact number 6 is dramatised because they want to give power and stronger character to Margaret, because as you can see in whole 2 season, She was always far behind the Queen.
as would be expected, I think.
Just a small, but, I think, an important point. Aberfan is pronounced AberVan not Aber-
Fan. In Welsh, an F is pronounced as a V. FF is pronounced F. This was a huge event in Britain and it would have been nice to have had you listen to the newscasts at that time ... and actually hear the name correctly pronounced. Yours in Gratitude
I didn't think they were saying Phillip became a Christian. I think Phillip was just having a crisis of faith and was confronting it
Bonham-Carter is an excellent princess Margaret
The documentary was shown on t. v. here in Canada at the time, and likely in other Commonwealth countries. Just because it was not broadcast in the U. S. doesn't mean that it didn't have a wide viewership.
surprised nothing was said about the Princess Alice episode. I heard there were several errors in historical accuracy in that one
What was wrong about that episode ?
5:32 that was heartbreaking
Changing the whole cast was not a wise move,i enjoyed season 1 and 2
I agree. Particularly the queen, too tall and now with dark eyes.
In season three, you claim that the part of Princess Margaret is played by the actress Bellatrix Lastrange. If the is true Lastrange has an uncanny resemblance to Helen Bonham Carter!!!!🤣😂🤣
The show's silly suggestion that Margaret achieved a US loan for the UK was trivial compared to the fanciful whoppers season 4 concocted about Margaret's discovery of the truth about the institutionalized Bowes-Lyon sisters. I suppose the series was desperate to make Margaret seem less of an irredeemably shallow, self-absorbed, inebriated hedonist.
How do we know this you tube got the bits in the crown wrong though?
While I enjoyed many parts of Season 3, what makes me scratch my head is the conspicuous absence of any mention of events in Northern Ireland and attacks by the IRA during this particular time period. I know the show tends to focus on the interpersonal dynamics of the royal family with politics playing a secondary role, but I find it odd the Troubles were completely left out during a time when a great deal of conflict was happening. Maybe in Season 4, given that should cover the time period when Lord Mountbatten was assassinated by the IRA. Or they plan on skipping it all together because no matter what perspective they take, they will stir up a hornet's nest.
I've read that the assassination of Mountbatten is a major event in Season 4.
Probably in season 4
@@dariusanderton3760 I actually thought they may have finished S3 with Mountbatten’s death, which happens in 1979
In the U.S. I ask my mother about Princess Margaret visit when I was young and my mother didn't much care for the Princess. As a child I had similar fantasies about being a member of the royal family. Being a Royal exacts a cost your life is not completely your own.
can't wait for Princess Diana Part...
