Loved this episode seeing a different side of Elizabeth and Margaret. Made Elizabeth more human too
"I'd rather die than exercise"
Royals, they're just like us!
An emotional episode that was a bit hard to watch. Not sure how Margaret was in real life, but I enjoyed her as a character on this show. That ending was a bit of a gut punch.
Also, the casting for young Elizabeth was spectacular. I initially thought they brought back Claire Foy for this! Almost identical.
i'm glad we got a non-will&kate episode and tbh, i'm dreading what comes after this. i have my feelings about the royal family and this one humanized elizabeth a bit for me, and margaret's story is so sad. i hope you all stayed long enough to listen to the music over the end credits! it's vanessa kirby and jared harris' duet from season 1. made me tear up a bit hearing that callback. great moment to include.
Well, well... it only took 5 seasons and 8 episodes to finally show Elizabeth as a human being.
Would have loved it if the actors of young Elizabeth and Margaret had returned, though.

Such a sad and heartbreaking episode. Very well executed though. The casting for young Elizabeth is so on point here. I could almost see Claire Foy in her.
