It was a day consisting of endless marching to the same 3 pieces of music over and over and over again, with about 90% of the funeral spent not talking about Elizabeth herself or her achievements but instead talking about Jesus and quoting the Bible. There were an endless number of very ho-hum 1950s style hymns with only one piece of genuinely beautiful music performed in an appropriate manner for the occasion (the stunning piece sung when the coffin was first brought into the abbey). The organist made many many many mistakes in their playing on the way out, the bum notes screeching over everything. If this is one of the greatest things you've ever witnessed I wonder if you have witnessed much at all. Elizabeth II deserved less plodding about and more of a genuine funeral rather than a multi-million pound walkabout that sent everyone to sleep.

It is funded by the Sovereign Grant, which comes from the Crown Estate, lands that have never been owned by the taxpayer in over 800 years. The surplus income, about £300 million pounds a year, is paid to the Treasury, so the taxpayer. Far from being a drain on the taxpayer, the monarchy is a source of income.

She wasn't about to tolerate Elizabeth getting vain or thinking she was important

Instead, their portrayal border on slander - not to diss or badmouth the actor, who was probably doing his best. However, King George VI had kind eyes not practically vacant and cow like ones. For a reasonably good portrayal of him the made for TV movie Bertie and Elizabeth is best or even The King's Speech ( although Bertie's eyes were blue not brown and he never yelled at this therapist - their relationship was always friendly and professional).Still, for a reasonably decent portrayal of King George VI watch Bertie and Elizabeth or The King's Speech. To see the real Bertie ( King George VI) watch King George VI and Elizabeth A Royal Love Story.
