For everyone who this melody has touched his soul.
Charles Dance is an exceptional actor even when playing silly roles, but give him something like the Earl of Mountbatten or Tywin Lannister and he really shines.
I recommend the BBC miniseries "And Then There Were None", he plays a brilliant role in it
@@whoviansonskaro17 I've seen it and he is indeed excellent in it!
He is brilliant. I first noticed him as the villain in Last Action Hero.
@@pauljordan4452 I'm kind of old, so I first noticed him as one of the quietly heroic characters in "The Jewel in the Crown." He rarely gets to play heroes, but he is almost always one of the smartest, most capable people in a given room.
@James Prediston thank you! I strive for accuracy in anything I write and kind corrections are welcome and valued!
The look he shoots the five younger men is simply priceless.
Truly art
It just registered to me that he gave them a look of admonition for singing it “the wrong way”.
@@seano.5970 Or because they were singing it a bit too jovially given he was leaving.
That's tywin XD
Josh McCollen yes indeed. Lord Tywin is alive and well.
This song is so much better when it's a group and not just one person
This and Amazing grace are best sang by a group of 20+ people to get the full affect.
Goosebumps
Let’s not forget about Paradise City, gents.
It's why we sing it at new year's in Scotland, v emotional
Totally. It's so hard to find recordings of it though
@@MrDokha po p
Charles Dance is on the screen here for about 60 seconds and does not utter a word. And yet, with his expressions and a slight inclination of his head, he speaks volumes. THAT is acting.
Amen! Classic.
Mountbatten was a murdering, self aggrandizing piece of human trash.
This is a rather intelligent scene. Mountbatten was a far more successful military officer than many realise. He should be remembered as a highly successful officer who just happened to be an in-law of the royal family, but his ego got in the way. The legend he built up obscured everything.
Not just an in-law, he was born royal.
Who may have abused children
@@c17sam90 And encouraged Charles to "sow his oats" and take on a younger bride instead of one his own age... because an age difference and power imbalance wouldn't be an issue, hmm?
The Canadians who died on the shores of Dieppe would no sure you sentiment
to be fair Mountbatten and Fleming could not be entirely honest about the true intentions of the operation we know more about it now.
Today was my last day at my work, felt same as Lord Mountbatten to be honest.

When I retire or get sacked I want to be escorted out of the building with a giant portrait of myself in tow.
EPIC shit me too ahahaha
True, imagine even your bosses just singing along…legendary(bosses sunging along sing related here)
I would leave the fracking cake for them to eat.
Leaving is so random. The idiots at one of my old firms felt it necessary to have "security" walk me out during a layoff, but none were to be found, so poor old Fred in the mail room was drafted. He was mortified and more shaken than I was! So, with my little box of personal items, we chatted about his golf game all the way down and one cold afternoon at 3:10 p.m. I found myself standing out in the carport in the rain. SO, Children, this is what comes of 10 years with a firm, and a "Best Employee" award for making a major deadline whilst fighting a nasty case of bronchitis Beware! And F them all.
"Moe"
I intend to haunt their office after my demuse(hooely nit for a whike) and fill it with spectral farts). Haruumph!
Lord Tywin when he retired as Hand of the King to Aerys II
Yeah that was probably just a little bit more bit more bitter than this...
This is Tywin, leaving the House Reyne. Having them all killed.
Tywin: I'm taking the dragon skulls.
A Lannister - and a Mountbatten - always pays his debts.
In his mind, "I'll be BACK! and you'll all be dead"
Put Lannister armor on him and he could be Lord Tywin in this scene, especially when he turns to stare down those younger guys mockingly singing! What a powerful presence, Charles Dance can portray and definitely one of the best actors.
Why do they behave like that? (sorry for I have not watched this show)
zin zin he was fired from his job
They are basically the same character tbh these ruthless and ego drive posh people who are assassinated
@@c17sam90 do you have any fucking idea who Lord mountbatten was. He was arguebly one of brittians best navy commanders. If it wasn't for him many people in Britain wouldn't be here today. He was a hero no dubt who put his life on the line for 4 years. Fighting in the Pacific theatre and agasint the Germans. Educate yourself on someone before you try slander a war hero
@@c17sam90 as the other comment said, educate yourself before you make visceral comments like that.
That’s probably the finest acting I ever saw on TV. Delivers a dozen different messages without even saying a word. Charles Dance is absolutely fantastic in this role (as well).
What a royal gesture!
Girls: PE teacher is such an idiot, I'm glad he is gone
Me and the boys in the dressing room:
Dance never says 1 line and it's among the best acting in the show. Legend!
Taking one last look around my office and place of work, as my coworkers, friends, colleages, wave me goodbye, while singing Auld Lang Syne. I take in these last few moments, knowing the next time I walk through those doors, if I ever come back, I won't work here anymore, I have no more duties to perform.
No politician or military leader we have today could ever inspire that level of respect.
Well, they do. You could fill a room with that many people who would act in the same manner towards Biden, Johnson, Schulz, and especially Xi Xinping.
Oh yeah RC Legion loves him!
Neither did Mountbatten imo he was a moron who screwed up the transition of power from the Raj to the India and Pakistan
Lot going on in his mind he's annoyed by the singing because he resents leaving but i think he's still moved that he has there respect.
I wish Lord Mountbatten was given more screen time in the Crown
Specially from the military point of view
Especially*. You're watching clips from The Crown, at least get that corresponding language right.
@@Michael-mh2tw And why, pray tell, does he need to get the language right? If you watch an Indian show's clips, do you need to get the corresponding language right as well? Or does this logic apply only to English?
@@Michael-mh2tw specifically?
@@ayushsahu4125 I would assume that if one were posting in Hindi in regard to a clip from an Indian programme, one would, indeed, be expected to compose one's grammar properly.
That was actually sung well
Twas!
Even if it was the English translation instead of the original Scots, still good.
That's one helluva send off.
Your picture is the fanciest Canadian ensign I have ever seen!
@@sadaasdafa8635 Thank you!
Lord Mountbatten is getting an even bigger send off next season if I remember my history
@@shuboy05 bruhhhhhh o7 in the comments bois
@@shuboy05 hahaha wahey, up the ra
if Charles Dance ever stood for political office he would win an absolute landslide
That's because he would have every one else dead or fearing death to go against him
He Would be King, if he wanted
Ali G would say different

A Lannister - and a Mountbatten - always pays his debts.
Lord Mountbatten was the creme de la creme of Imperial Aristocracy. Legend. There's an autobiographical video of him. Highly recommend everyone to watch the man speak about his life and times.
He was a scumbag 😂😂 who was under fbi investigation over touching an 11 year old also he was no legend he was an imperial whinge. Who gives a shit bout his military service when he was a part of oppressing other nations
He could’ve played Commander Tarkin in Rogue One.
Damn straight.
Agree
Grand Moff Tarkin, he was much more then a petty commander
Tarkin was Admiral at end of the Clone Wars and Grand Moff during the Imperial era.
If my coworkers don’t sing this for my last day, imma be pissed
He’s a tremendous actor
No one could have done it better than Charles Dance ❤
Just the aura of this man. 👏🏽
For me, the way he delivers his lines, Every things he says just carries kind of weight, it's hard to describe.
.
Lord Tywin, good to see you again. ❤ Charles Dance, what an actor 😍👍

That's Twin Lannister pretending to be Lord Mountbatten.
No, I see a vampire elder 🧛🏻♂️pretending to be lord mountbatten👨🏻✈️
No shit sherlock
Simply amazing! One of the best farewell I've seen.
Charles Dance is truly a great actor.
This scene could be seen as either heartwarming or very disrespectful. I hear you ask "random person on the interner, how is this disrespectful?" Well random person on the internet, it can be seen as disrespectful by the thought that there singing him out of his job, the young men were mocking it and dont really are that hes leaving, and even gave him a cake as if he needs it. It all depeneds on what way you look at this scene. If you look at it as a happy moment for him then you will think hes emotional and remanicant but if you look at it as disrespectful youl notice some key things like him pausing after seeing the men mocking him leaving, the look of disappointment as they start singing.
I saw it that way as well, a mixed send off. I think he wanted to salute his faithful staff when he turned around, but when he saw those young men he realized they’re the reason he’s on the way out, so he walked out without acknowledging them.
It's definitely sung in a mocking tone
He didn't have enough people with that sort of access who hated him enough to turn up to jeer him on his leaving. People don't make time from their day to show up for someone they dislike.
@@Michael-mh2tw lad.... the people who work there dont like him.
If you know anything about Lord Mountbatten’s military career. You’d know what spirit it would be sung in.
They say Mountbatten was blown away by the farewell he received.
Lol
It's such a beautiful scene... put a lump in my throat.
A wonderful scene. Charles Dance is a great actor. A perfect gentleman.
Epic. If you retire like this you must have done something right.
They were essentially Mountbatten's Boys.
That actor playing that role is very charismatic, he has great body swag. LOL
After Lord Mountbatten there was a decline in the British armed forces, for example the Royal Navy in the second world war had more than 200 ships, today it only has a third of that number, now it is a shadow of what it was before, in terms of numbers. He opposed the reduction of the military budget, especially that of the Royal Navy.
This show had so many game of thrones actors in it- Tywin, that lord of the veil, pycell, qyburn, yara greyjoy
Don't forget Lord Stannis Baratheon was the one who painted Churchill's portrait.
The mad king was also in this show
@@canuckerbird King* Stannis Baratheon

If he had lived charles would not rush into marriage with diana
Why is that?
@@viktorpetrov3887 the lord was Charles mentor
Truth.
he would have married cersei :p
Connor Maxwell He always told Charles to play around but settle with an innocent, moldable girl with a clean and suitable background who can support him. He was a very important figure in Charles’ life, like a mix of a father, a grandfather, an uncle, a mentor, and a friend. When Lord Mountbatten suddenly died, Charles was very broken and decided to live up to what Mountbatten wished him to do, and that is to find a good girl to be Princess of Wales. Charles saw Diana and thought that she is the exact type of girl that Lord Mountbatten was talking about. And also it is alleged that Princess Diana offered Charles condolences for his loss of Mountbatten. And Diana always knows the exact words to say to comfort someone who is in pain. And Charles began to date Diana. Then the paparazzi poured in on Diana. Philip forced Charles to make a decision of either marrying Diana or leave her alone. And Charles this rushed to the proposal.
When the video ended my cup of water have turned into tea and the wine cabinet have turned into a whiskey storage
You don't want to mess around with Tywin Lannister. And you don't want to mess around with Lord Mountbatten either. A Lannister (and a Mountbatten) always pays his debts.
When i started watching the Crown i crushed hard on Eden, that mustache was the death of me, but only now i realize how good looking is Charles Dance, at least to me. The classic old school gentleman. Refined, elegant, polite, Precious. 💕😘
Great actor. Great scene
without a single word, he dominated them all
โหดมากครับคนนี้ สมัยมาคุมยึดเอเชีย เอาอยู่เลย หล่อ เท่ วางแผนการรบเยี่ยม ทั้งบู๊บุ๋น
Man i love this series... cant wait for season 5 in 2022!
0:20 me & the gang, celebrating our discipline teacher's retirement.
Netflix should make a separate television series on Lord Mountbatten.
Why was he assassinated?
I am sure it would be a hit, with explosive revelations, especially in the final episode.
@@chefandmusician9170because he represented everything wrong about britan imperial nation that oppressed others. He was a legitimate target for the irish. He came here in his little car staying in an irish castle after everything the royals had done. He should have knew better
lord mountbatten's actor is the same in the imitation game (the movie about Alan Turing) as the commander of the Bletchley Park
He cracked the code! So whenever somebody sings to me on my birthday I simply turn around and walk out the building!
History is gathering momentum in that overtime Mountbatten shall inevitably be remembered in the way he always knew he would. History will not be kind. 🇿🇦👍
This is yet another of The Crown's fictional imaginations. Mountbatten's resignation and departure from the MoD was great celebration with uniforms, medals, parades and marching bands. In short an innuendo disguised as a dramatic devise.
the hardest gangsta scene of all time
One of the recappers said this looked like a farewell party planned by Dwight Shrute - especially the cake...
The actor did such a great job
A lion doesn't concern himself with the opinions of sheep
Firstly, what sort of cake is that? Like lemon? If it is ugh.
Secondly, that was sung really well! Shame there isn’t a full version of it because they sing great!
Stop unnecessarily dissing the cake you plonker. Show Lord Mountbatten a bit of bloody respect.
Cakes were a lot simpler at the time he retired... smaller bakeries and less industrial and colourful ingredients.
That cake looks like something Dwight from The Office would pick out.
1:01 This shot when the men are looking down at him through the oculus is a great payoff. Magnificent!
And so he spoke...that lord of Castamere...
Rest in Peace Lord Mountbatten!🇬🇧
Pieces actually 😂😂 scumbag he was you lot respect kiddy fiddlers how lovely. Aw well you got 13 we got 18 an mountbatten
Rest in peace, Lord M
A look from Lord Tywin reminds lesser folk to not act a fool.
"A Lannister always pays his debts. Remember that!"
I love the death stares he gives
It’s quite satisfying that Charles Dance got to play Lord Mountbatten in Season 3-4 as he was appointed an OBE by the actual Queen Elizabeth II herself for his services to drama.
Excellent casting
Lord Mountbatten be like: *you enjoying singing that eh?*
Amazing
Lots of people missing the significance of the song choice here - Auld Lang Syne was the final song performed at the 1997 relinquishing of Hong Kong, one of Britains last remaining Empirical territories. Mountbatten is often attributed to having been one of the dominoes in the collapse of the empire considering that India gained independence under his watch. The men here are disrespectfully wishing him farewell and he is powerless to stop it, much like the UK in 1997 - publicly presenting a stiff upper lip but internally furious. Whether it happened this way or not, its a deliberate choice by the writers/composer to have had this song placed here in this very specific context.
This interpretation is ridiculous. First, the retrocession of Hong Kong happens in 1997, outside of the scope of four seasons of the Crown; Second, this scene happens in the 1970s; not only the retrocession is still way in the future, but Mountbatten's own assassination happens in 1979. Finally, Auld Lang Syne is a legendary tune habitually sung in Britain on weddings and farewell/retirement events. It's an total show of respect and loyalty to him that the senior, older staffers come and sing him Auld Lang Syne when he leaves. However, the younger members on the front are way too eager to sing it because they are from another generation less loyal to Mountbatten and its legacy, who seem to be a little too glad the old geezer is gone. They immediately return to a more proper "solemn" decorum when he turns to look at them.
@@nm7358 you’ve entirely missed the point here, it’s still a song with a loaded usage. there’s no way there isn’t a correlation here for this totally fictional event - when mountbatten actually retired he had a full military parade. What’s being put forward here is that there’s a link between the man ‘who lost india’ and the last days of empire on the part of the producers of the crown.
[ X ] doubt
The most British can ever get
The salt is strong with this one
Recently I saw RUclips videos documenting how he wasn't that admirable.
HAPPY NEW YEARS LUITENENT DAN
Such dignity
0:26, Lord Tywin looks like he's about to have everyone in that lobby executed
A Lannister - and a Mountbatten - always pays his debts.
Tall, proud and handsome ☺
I'm glad i'm not the only one having a thing for Charles 💕
Me too
If you can’t appreciate this I don’t appreciate you
That seems fair enough ;)
I want to retire like this...
Fantástico!
It would have been 1,000 times better had lord Mountbatten was wearing his ceremonial uniform , that would have made this a memorable scene
In real life, he did just that... A grand parade was organised with full uniforms worn by all
0:09 That inhale exhale execution
Be forgot
forget Aung San Suu Kyi , Mountbatten was the last true lord of Burma
@0:24 They all drop their eyes at his gaze. Respect.
i like the mother queen because she smiles
Charles Dance would have been good as old Prince Philip, looks fairly similar and has a similar presence.
If Lord mountbatten still live. He will be the first person to advice and teprimanded prince Charles and warned him of divorcing Diana.
This talent should be used in real quality movies instead of crazy fantasy like computer game movies.
As long as this God Given Talent is on earth must be used by respect and NOT just $$$$$$!!!!
In India Lord Mountbatten is highly respected.
In Ireland his legacy got blown out of proportion.
We too remember him in India his role in freedom and partition of India
His contribution was that he used his charisma and his wife on weak willed individuals like nehru and jinnah and fucked up everything. Grovel much?
Excellent depiction. Brilliant acting. Given the man had committed treason
I litteraly watched the series just to see this scene
how tf did they manage to pull a terrorist attack on tywin lannister
No man could play "Sardo Numspa" like Charles Dance.
His greatest role, and a movie villain for the ages.
Right after the ball drops in Times Square:
Me. At another damned office party on my God-given lunch break!
They should have saved this actor to play the Iron Duke on the later seasons.
RIP the queen
The melody was so familiar but I couldn’t remember any words then I realized I have only heard it play on bagpipes lol
Charles Dance just amazing actor
Lord Mountbatten, they blew up his boat. So sad.
Not really
@@bigsauce6645 in this moment my thought process isn't very well I'm processing and thinking about a lot and well the IRA the Scottish they did they bombed his boat as he was on it. They killed him and at others and could have killed thee to thrown the Prince of Wales.
@@bigsauce6645 Not really? He was not the only one on that boat, it also killed and wounded several others, among them a 14 and 15 year old.
It’s the look to the young upstarts that says something along the lines of, give me the respect I deserve or I will eviscerate you.
