The first 2 seasons of “The Crown” were the very best. They should have kept Claire Foy as the Queen and let her age with make up. Claire was excellent.

They could have done the same with Vanessa Kirby who was very good as Princess Margaret. Helena Bonham Carter is usually great in roles, but for some reason I see Helena instead of Princess Margaret. With Vanessa, I saw Princess Margaret.

The producers made a huge mistake changing the cast.

He was born in Corfu, Greece. The building where he was born was then a royal palace, later confiscated by the Greek government. It now houses the archaeological museum. I’ve been there.

Meaghan IS disgraceful,but Harry is surely worse! This is his grandfather, for heavens sakes, and did he go see him in the hospital??
and Philip was a good grandpa too.

he cussed a few times, which I found odd

He was a sailor LOL - seeing his obit he really lived so many great events of the 20th century. What a life, I bet he was a very interesting man.

Here is some more information about Phillip’s background

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4074802/Prince-Philip-born-kitchen-table-Corfu.html

He was a very interesting person. Apparently he wasn’t Greek at all. And yes, his father turned out poorly. His name comes from his mother’s family, not his father’s.

If you believe what you see in Hollywood docudramas you will be misinformed. They routinely lie to make money.

I agree with you about the cast! I loved the 1st Phillip- the “older” version, not so much. He speaks like his jaw is wired together.
Both of the Margarets did a good job.

Prince Phillip’s demise was overshadowed by the death of James Hampton. RIP Dobbs.

Harry threw all his future away.
His grandfather had quite a life.
