THE CROWN: SEASON 1 Clip - "Not A Showgirl" Now on Blu-ray & DVD!

The British Empire is in decline, the political world is in disarray, and a young woman takes the throne…a new era is dawning. Queen Elizabeth II is a 25-year-old newlywed faced with the daunting prospect of leading the world’s most famous monarchy while forging a relationship with legendary Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill. The Crown explores the Queen’s private journey behind the public façade with daring frankness.

    But are we sure it was the way to do it ? Sure it's what the system demanded, but so many characters (Margaret, Philip, Diana, Charles) challenge the system and usually are proven right when they try to modernize it. Would it be so bad if the sovereign showed an ounce of humanity ? I feel like even the show keeps asking that question

The institution is supposed to embody duty, stability, and longevity. None of those qualities are found in “showgirls,” who constantly clamor for the spotlight and outshine everyone and everything around them, albeit fleetingly.

    Margaret could never accept being in her sister's shadow, and I think that affected her for the rest of her life. But it's a blessing she wasn't born first, because her arrogance and (later on) recklessness would've scandalized the throne, and she very well could've repeated the national abdication crisis of 1936.

    Not sure if she did here but she threw shade at Philip so much in season 2. Whenever Elizabeth brought up Peter's divorced past and family background, she always insulted Philip's family; his Nazi sisters, his deranged mother, and philandering bankrupt father. She made a good point, but that's why it was satisfying to see Philip throw shade at her in season 4.

When the sovereign is out of the country or otherwise indisposed the counselors of state fill in for him/her doing ceremonial duties like Investitures, greeting foreign dignitaries, receiving credentials from new ambassadors and filling in for other public appearances. Margaret was a counselor of state until Prince Edward turned 21 and replaced her. The counselors are the monarchs spouse and the next four in the line of succession who are over the age of 21.
