    May the beloved Queen rest in peace, it is incredible how the queen moved crowds around the world.
    It is amazing the work she did.

    I was hoping you did a video about the Queen and there it is. :) To me all the procedures are very fascinating as we don't have a king or queen in Germany. It must be something to have a leader (even when it's "only" a representative leader) for so long. It impresses me to watch old and young people say how the Queen was part of their life and how people are showing their feelings in public and are together in this. That's very rare nowadays.
    About the Queen herself, watching "The Crown" helped me to fathom what living this life of service meant for her and how she really seemed to have pushed all her personal interests aside to just serve her people. So yeah, I think she was an exceptional person who you won't find again ...

    I've been waiting for this episode since I heard the news. The Queen was neither popular nor unpopular here in Egypt, which was a good thing because she was the Queen when the UK attacked Egypt in 1956 yet a long time passed since then and the political situation between the two countries became more than good.
    I have a question if I may: I heard that many Brits don't support the monarchy (especially the young generation), yet most if not all of them speak very well of the Queen, so is it out of good manners (to speak well of the deceased regardless of one's personal opinion) or do most Brits regard their monarchs as symbols of the nation even those who don't support the monarchy?

      Great question actually! And the “respect for the dead” is such a silly thing I find. My mother never let me say anything negative about a diseased relative, which is quite confusing to me. Death does not suddenly makes them saints. But I suppose maybe people were afraid to be haunted by evil spirits?!!! 🫣
      Also I expect a lot of commonwealth countries will now become republics and no longer recognize a British monarch as their own.
      Where I come from we abolished monarchy a while back (proudly), although there is a monarchic party that intends to bring back monarchy.
      In our republic we give a chance to different families to leave off of the people. 😜 And to be “parasites”.
      Queen Elizabeth’s life was however quite fascinating and she was quite a brilliant human being a find! Anyone that loves dogs must be a good human being!
      Finally the support for the British monarchy may come because it is a “tourism” feature, bringing a lot of revenue, thus perhaps the support!

      Wow, thanks for your comments... from my experience, the Royal Family have become more distant from modern society, up until very recently - The Crown definitely helped to humanise the family, but I think their support from younger generations is waning. So, it will be interesting to see what Charles does, especially at a time when people will have to choose between heating their homes and buying food for the week.
      With all this said, I think there is a respect for The Queen as she held the mantel for so long and worked up until the day she died, regardless of her title, I think people, like in the episode, see her as a parent, grandparent & as a person.

    She first visited my country in 1950s and welcomed by the 2nd prime minister of Sri Lanka, i've seen the footages and thought though those people are dead and among the history books the queen is still running strongly and tend not to believe that she would someday pass away, but now the time has come for her and hard to believe tht she no longer exists. Sri Lankan government has declared 19th as a public holiday and a national day of mourning as a respect for the queen as she was the head of the state for 20years and the leader of the commonwealth. Rest In Peace Your Majesty.

      Oh wow, and will you then watch the funeral? It seems surreal that she has died as she's been in the public eye my entire life and seems almost like a fictional character.

      I believe that she was an example of service to her people. It is especially impressive how, even as a little girl, she helped her people during the Second World War, when in 1940 Great Britain was left alone against two bloodthirsty empires - fascist and communist. And it was very nice that she also publicly supported Ukraine in the fight against the latest fascists and helped us financially and with her own money. Therefore, I remain grateful to Queen Elizabeth and the entire British people for your help on our way to freedom and democracy

    In the 21st century and people still believe in these myths. I hope that one day the kings and the Aristocracy will disappear, they have done a lot of damage. Ask in Africa what the British Empire did.... Nice channel by the way. I love too easy german❤️
