The Crown certainly is an interesting series. There has been a lot of drama in the royal family to draw upon for story lines. I believe that season 3 will have new (older) actresses to play the role of the aging queen and her sister Margaret.

glad to hear there will be a season 3!
About turning power over at age 95-wonder if Charles will accept or turn over to his son. Charles doesn't seem like he wants the role...
amazing to me, to live such a controlled life in such opulence and yet be working 40-50 hrs a week. But I guess growing up in that environment it just is "life" as they know it....but I guess anyone who is wealthy and has a empire to look after is just as devoted, be it monarch or politician or business mogul..

Glad to know there will be a new season. I thought the ending didn't seem like an ending.

I'm interested in watching it, but I couldn't find it on Netflix. Have they pulled it down?

Interesting, I may have to watch this in the sewing room today.

Charles isn't a young man so I don't think he'll be King very long before it passes to William. Who would have thought the Queen would live to this age? Goodness...

Her mother lived to be 105, or 104. I get mixed up with Rose Kennedy. They were both over 100.

I wish she would skip Charles and just moved it on to William. There's always so much scuttlebutt!

I requested season 1 from my library but it will be a while until
I receive it. The library has it on order and there are 162 requests ahead of me. Guess I'll just have to quilt.

162 ! Crazy ! I don’t keep up on the “rules” but Queen Elizabeth’s uncle Edward gave up the throne to marry a divorced woman. Charles is married to the same, so can he be King or have I got something wrong ? Queen Elizabeth is a class act, quite a lady.
