    It’s hard to play a well known real person without it being a caricature or parody, but Elizabeth was just jaw-dropping playing Diana.

      I think she even improved from season 5 to season 6, maybe she changed up a few things. Her manner of speaking was identical to Diana this time.

      @Me-hs4jj 6 месяцев назад +9

      It’s a combination of exceptional talent and dedication to detail. She was so spookily like her that I forgot I was watching a drama during some of her scenes.
      When the first actress played her I thought she was phenomenal and it would be a real accomplishment to better her portrayal. Then along comes Elizabeth and simply stunned me.

    Do you remember just how painfully sad we all felt that day for William and Harry after their beloved mother died, in fact we had great empathy for the boys/men that carried on for decades after. Yet……
    When Harry saw the same kind of treatment happening to his wife and later his children, and was determined not allow history to repeat itself. Soooo many of you had already drank the kool-aid, the royal and British propaganda of disgusting racist hatred, the kind princess Dianna had been fighting against up to the day she died !!!
    SHAME ON YOU
    How disgusted she would be of everyone of you that has treated her son and his family like they too are not human.
