Mountbatten was always an explosive character, even at the end.

the writers of this episode got it wrong, the only “part Greeks” were Alice’s five children, due to her marriage to Prince Andreas of Greece. The rest of the Battenbergs were, as she said “part German” but it was a very big part of their makeup.

The ticking of the clock, the creaking bed, the pidgeons in the background. The subtle and delicate acting. This scene has a depth and frailty to it that makes it unforgetable. It is impossible to think that the actors are nót brother and sister. Beautiful.

Mountbatten talks about spending his life serving his adopted country & the state of that country at the time & the heartbreak he feels over it. All the time he gave defending something. Personally, I can relate. 4 generations of my family gave their blood, sweat & tears in defense of the US. To see the shape of the US today makes me feel as if we wasted it all for an ungrateful nation.

Getting to see two legendary veteran actors, Jane Lapotaire and Charles Dance, share a scene together, let alone bring two historical figures like Lord Mountbatten and Princess Alice to life, is an absolute treat.

I wonder how the courtiers' attitude toward the Duke of Edinburgh would have been if his mother had been present in his life during his courtship and marriage. Humble as she was she was still born in the presence of Queen Victoria and was the daughter in law of the King of Greece.

"Muy meridional" por no decir que era moreno, o no tan blanco como ella y los ingleses y que no tenían las mismas costumbres. Ella nunca dejó de ver ni a su marido ni a sus súbditos como "gentes meridionales" y de comparar todo y a todos con el Reino Unido y con los británicos. Una "reina desdichada" dicen, pero más allá de las infidelidades, ella nunca dejó de ver con cierto desdén (mas no desprecio) a su nuevo país y su nueva gente así que de cierta manera ella también construyó y se ganó su destino. Uno construye lo que obtiene.

Princess Alice was deaf from birth on. She could lip read in four languages (English, German, French and Greek) and speak, but not as shown here. Unfortunately, the series presents her in a way that does not show the true Alice. If you ever have heard a deaf person talking you know what I mean. Sorry for crackwising, but I have published the first biography about Alice in two volumes, which is based on historical facts and events. Maybe one can say that the series wanted some more drama in presenting her character...sadly. The even presented Diana in a very bad way...
