The telephone conversation is hilarious!
Bhagya De Silva Soo funny!!
Our Queen is dancing 😂🤣
You're not lying I cannot stop laughing at that scene
This was as truthful as it gets! Reports from the day say how shocked everyone was!
"Hwot?!"
"You are the dancing queeeen, young and sweet only seventeen!!!" 😂😂😂😂❤️
What an odd reply. The 'real' Queen actually did dance with Nkrumah and we have photos to prove it. Moreover, as head of a multicultural commonwealth, she is used to mixing with people from all over the world and considers them her people whatever their colour or race. Was that remark posted by some racist idiot from the southern states who knows nothing about the Queen and her attitudes?
It's a big leap to say that because Prince Philip has said a handful of cringeworthy things over a period of more than 90 years, then the Queen's the same. It's sweeping and you're wrong. You make it sound as though he was abusive of negroes every time he opened his mouth whereas most of his ill-timed jokes were just about everyone else you can think of. Philip wasn't brought up to be the head of a multi-racial British empire/commonwealth and Elizabeth was: their attitudes are bound to be different. And Harry's engagement to Meghan seems to have thrilled everyone, including the Queen and Prince Philip. Philip has spent most of his life trying to modernise attitudes in the Palace and I expect that he sees this marriage as one more step along the road, something that will help to maintain the popularity of the Crown in the UK, something that will help the Royal Family to promote 'the Firm'.
No, I don't get you wrong - I think I know precisely where you're coming from. You're a racist and just want to draw important people like Prince Philip into your circle of 'people who think like me'. You're deluded and I'm sure if Prince P were ever in the same room as you, he would studiously avoid your company as not the sort of narrow-minded person he would want to mix with. So, stop tarring him with your brush.
Wow. Not only is your grammar bad but your idea that your proud racism as a good thing is laughable. Go back to cousin and sibling fucking way down South. And preferably stay there because the world is changing and you are getting left behind.
Literally what I thought of
2:12 And THIS, Charles, is how you react when you see your beautiful wife dance in that kind of situation.
So true!! 👍😁
True! 😩 I would be like: “and she is my girl!” Proud of her ❤️
Its different when your wife is actually someone you wanted to marry and weren't strong-armed into by your family.
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So true
The four staff members interaction on the phone is handsdown the second greatest part about this scene
What are they doing?
I believe it's the foxtrot, sir!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
One of them are then pm of UK, not staff member
it would imagen one of them fainted lol
Well no shit. You're phrasing it as if there were many parts in this scene lmao. Just say that it was funny.
@@Wearealltogether1428pretty much staff in comparison
The look of Prince Philip, saying: That incredible woman is my wife.
They couldn't be more different from Charles and Diana

Perhaps the most brilliant scene Netflix ever produced
How about daredevil
@@endercomt2380 wtf is this joke??comparing the crown to daredevil😂anyone who has seen both series knows whats the only true gem with no comparison. The crown and chernobyl are truly one of the greatest genious tv series.
It is joyous
Lilian Yes and they handled the cold-blooded treachery and competing agendas in the “Court” so well. I could just hear Diana say, “ Bravo and thats how it was too!) lol
y'all really like putting things down for the sake of another 💀💀💀 daredevil also has awesome scenes and, not only that, people can have different tastes. chill
She actually did do this, it was clearly a big deal back then, and the Queen was Badass for it, I also loved how Phillip didn’t get mad or jealous, he understood what she was doing and loved her for it 🙌🏻
Actually Phillip also was dancing, with wife of the Prime Minister. It really was a big show.
Kwame Nkrumah was the true badass
The moment she looks at Philip, and he is beaming with pride, her smile intensifies.

"This was definitely not agreed!"
I wouldn’t say she’s controlled but constitutionally she acts on the advice of her ministers. For instance Tony Blair advised her to declare war on Iraq so she went along with it. It doesn’t mean she personally was in favour and is strictly forbidden from expressing political opinions. In recent years the closest she came to this was urging Scots to ‘think carefully’ about the independence vote. She could never come out and urge people to vote one way or the other. Her ability to walk this delicate political tight rope is partly why she’s such a great monarch.
She could come out and make a political statement, there is nothing to prevent her from it, but she knows she is better off not making one. She leaves it to the politicians. But in this scene we could see how The Queen, the real one, still found a way to make such a statement when she felt right to do so. A few decades later she drove a Saudi crown prince around in her car herself. Which is fairly ordinary for us but for a Saudi it was a clear message on women's equality.
😂😂😂😂
King A - No....
That is woman that can't be controlled.....
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
the black and white shot at the end is everything...i don't know why, but it just gets me because you can see she's so happy because she's in control for once and she's free and enjoying herself and she's beautiful and i just love it
It’s based on the actual photo of the real life dance. This bit is based on what really happened
@@CrankyGrandma I'm sure you are right. However, if you don't mind, both that symbolism and the reaction of Moley I can really appreciate.
Well now We know that the Queen Elizabeth II doesnt say about skin colour of your great-grandson Archie,she look very happy dancing.....
@@moladina cor da pele é apenas um detalhe. Os negros tem o mesmo valor que os brancos.
Lol she's always in Control. She loves being in control so much she refuses to fucking abdicate and let her son be King that they groomed,terrorized,made him marry someone he did not love, terrorize Diana may she R.I.P, Prince Charles is in his late 70s and may only have time to change a few things before he kicks the bucket as well. Smh.
And at 94 years old, she spent the day riding! She is such an inspiration! Long live the Queen!
This comment didn't age well lol
@@awesomesauce2000 still
94 and still riding horses??!!
I can barely walk up stairs anymore and i'm 2 decades younger
@@awesomesauce2000 neither did she
😬 welcome to 2022 one of the worst years of her reign
@@baphomethelpme3497 Everything comes to an end. She had a peaceful death. And was given a grand send off. The British loved her. I think it was a pretty good year for a woman of 96.
1:21 the way she raised her eyebrows and looks at Philip like "now watch me😏"
I believe its the foxtrot
Seeing this again makes me sad about the queens recent passing :(
Song Bird I knew that it was foxtrot when she was lead into the first basic. Well done.
Song Bird This alone should win am Emmy In 2018
Can anyone tell me the name of the song they danced to? Thanks!
Begin the Beguine. It's a classic of the 1950's.
Thanks!!
Look at Philip. He was actually beaming with pride. While I was watching this scene, I was cheering for her. YES QUEEN. SLAY. ❤️
Layla-Tal Medina Phillip was probably thinking "you go, girl!"
Nadius89 Yeah! That look in his eyes spoke volumes! :)
Layla-Tal Medina he was, wasn't he... Loved it 💕
Yes! It was such a sweet moment by them. The way she looks at him, smiles when she started dancing.
The irony is Philip is a known rascit , and the Queen has often had to scold him to avoid embrassment. Everyone was nervous when the Obamas came over as they where afraid he may make an unpleasant to say the least remark .
I love that she is truly enjoying herself. Feeling powerful, in control and confident.
Hi Annette
She was a master of her craft. A truly sophisticated woman, and the very essence of nobility.
"Our Queen is dancing sir... with an African."
What!
Jajajaja.
@@gerardcollins6621 Was this agreed?!
@@juan2228380 This is definitely not agreed!
@CheesyDip Gasp... You mean she was expressing her... opinion? That's anticonstitutional! That's the thin end of the wedge! Th-tha-that's the end of civilization! Granny Mary is so frowning at her in her abode up above!
I loveee the way she looks at Prince Phillip when she starts dancing. Its such a sweet look shared between them. He is soo proud of her and she is enjoying herself. I LOVE THIS SCENE SO MUCH! Thanks for uploading
well Philip needed a reminder that he has a wonderful wife :D
Literally the most supportive husband ever ❤
Seen this comment or variations of it a few times now in the comments. He's not smiling because he's happy she's enjoying herself or some sop stuff of that sort. He's proud of his wife for having pulled off an important political maneuver. The "terms" Nkrumah is talking about deal more so with whether Ghana would align itself with the Soviets or not.
Fue un gran compañero de vida, formaron una preciosa FLIA, pero bueno al ser ya grandes en toda FLIA , empieza los cambios siempre me atrapó su calma silencios, en momentos difíciles nunca un comentario creo pensar que lojicamente los ablar en privado pero bueno son cosas de la vida misma solo que la Reyna madre a sabido sobrellevar con discreción y silencio, es y será xxx siempre la gran Reina Madre👑💐❣️
Whos phillip
If the Crown was set in modern times:
"What are they doing?"
"I believe she's twerking..."
Edit: how in Gob's name did this get almost 3k likes
Lol the song would be wap
with an African !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ????????? !!!!!!!
😀😀
😂
She’s a Queen not a stripper
And the way she keeps looking at Phillip like “this is business dear, your my relationship” ❤️
The writers dovetailed two different storylines together so beautifully in this episode. The Queen is dancing with the PM of Ghana to arouse a bit of jealousy in Philip and make him see her as desirable like Jackie Kennedy, who, earlier in the episode, flirted with Philip at a BP state dinner. She also found out that Jackie insulted her behind her back, making Elizabeth feel like a middle-aged, dowdy simpleton. This simple gesture of dancing with the PM was Elizabeth’s proclaiming to Philip, “Don’t count me out yet.” But it also had greater implications as it helped solidify Ghana’s decision to remain in the Commonwealth instead of accepting help from Russia & China to become a Communist nation free from apartheid. It was a win/win for Elizabeth and Britain.
True. As the world pressured Britain to dissolve its empire. It let tHe Chinese communists quietly to move into the African continent to gain control of many.
Stephen daldrys episodes of the crown Hyde Park Corner Dear Ms Kennedy Assasins are the best episodes of these series just pure art I hope he comes back at the helm at season 5 and 6
@@inigobantok1579 I will have to give back and watch these episodes.
@@eddiekachnik3144 That is true sadly. Look at what happened to Rhodesia.
You misunderstand. She is dancing with a Black man because she wants to as the representative of her nation...and because this was not planned by those stodgy men in London but by herself!
im going to miss claire foy in the next season :(
I'm going to miss Claire Foy and Vanessa Kirby. I am excited to see how Helena Bonham Carter will portray Princess Margaret though.
I hate the new queen she's such a bitch
Jessica Jean they should have kept Claire through the entire series and aged her. Her portrayal of the QE 2 is flawless.
@@MrBishnuu I thought Olivia was quite good the fault lied in the writing. Philip however....
@@meghnasaha4349 Sorry but Olivia was miscast. Tobias as Philip was way better than Matt. He just totally embodied him and his mannerisms and facial expressions and overall attitude. To me season 3 was horribly boring. I would never re-watch it like I have the first two seasons. And the time jump was jarring going from Clair to Olivia. Didn't flow.
This episode has a lot of incredible scenes: the dancing queen scene, the first reunion with the Kennedy's, Jacky Kennedy's confession about her relationship with her husband and of course Kennedy's assassination. One of the most complete episodes. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
She's an absolute boss. I'm so glad that she is finally getting the recognition she deserves.
This scene is brilliant👏👏 give Claire Foy an Emmy right now!
Yes but let's not forget Jenna Coleman & Tom Hughes (Victoria) or the Actresses from Call The Midwife.

True
You've been heard !
She got it! 😊
When you research this part of The Crown, costumes and jewels, the room they are dancing in, it's exactly the same. Even the pictures in the NYTimes are exactly how they did the pics in The Crown. So great!
🤩 👑 ⬜🕊️⬛ 👑
The only " error" was the Nkruma was not 6 ft - he was around 5ft 8'' .
Two powerful people that left the earth your Honarable Dr.Kwame Nkrumah and Majestity Queen Elizebeth what they represented being Ghana will always be powerful. The fact that some old established heads in those time was shocked that a European royal danced with African political elite was pure envy and jelousy. The Queen had fun, felt relaxed and its clear she always wanted to this but knew the times of day was extremly racist. But its beautiful to see this 2 dance.
You have to remember, its the 1950s and most of those old men were born in the late 1800s.
The raise of the eye brows to Philip, that look was so cute and confident! Love it! Marvelous acting Clair Foy.
“What?! Was this agreed? Well what are they doing?!”
I just love how he says this part
It's like she's a wayward soldier doing something reckless
I believe it's the Foxtrot

The actor who plays the Ghana president did a good job notice his right hand and expression when the queen asked if he understood the terms...
They exchanged Ghana alignment with the west for personal prestige for Ghana president
I thought she was reminding Nkrumah about her royal position and expected Nkrumah to bow as a sign of respect
@@shamshulanuar1097 Yeah, no. She essentially said “I’ll dance with you, give the press and international community on a silver platter, and in return, you ditch the communists”
I don't think kwame Nkrumah ditched the communists
@@joancollaku8744 well actually he did. The UK Govt and JFK came up with the development loans Nkrumah was seeking. (As I understand it).
Nothing specific was said. It seems it was more - you honor me, I will honor you, we will both grow. A promise that worked for both of them as individuals and as representatives of their countries. Not to mention how he acknowledged all this: "Your Majesty" as he took her hand. How wonderful!
This is honeslty my fave scene of series 1&2 because it shows her Majesty being in full control and feeling liberated and carefree and Philip looking at her with such admiration love and pride
Not only was the dance notable for its political implications, but the fact that the Queen of the oldest monarchy in the world, would dance with an African, dignitary or not, in the middle of the birth of one of the worse blots on Britain's history, Apartheid, confirmed her intelligence and recognition of ALL her subjects. Many were horrified that she would allow an African to "touch" her even while they were busy committing all sorts of atrocities, raping Africa of its resources, seizing land, and imposing an almost fuedal system of racial divide and superiority that would continue for decades. Being careful to retain in her place as Queen, but still allowing Parliament to conduct crown governmental affairs, she demonstrated her viewpoint in one fell swoop with that dance; that she would not be a party to the vile institution that would establish itself with a vengeance. Of course, there were other political implications with Nkrumah's government itself, but that one act demonstrated Elizabeth's strength and conviction that she was The Queen of all, not a select few. Her admiration of Mandela in the coming years, is a testimony to her real feelings. As an American, that was the scene that impressed me most and knowing the history surrounding it, gave me an even more appreciation of that "moment of time" in history.
i dont think apartheid was a british thing, it was south african, mostly dutch (boer) invention. not excusing the british though, they practiced a similar form of separatism in my country (kenya) but we had an uprising and eventually won independence
Great comment. A bit of correction, though: the oldest monarchy in the world is Japan. Denmark is the oldest in Europe. The preeminence of the British monarchy is due to the British Empire.
Excellent 👏
Did this actually happen?
Sometime in the 1890s the Prime Minister the Marquess of Salisbury complained to Queen Victoria that a man of color (an Indian) was elected to the House of Commons. HMQ asked Lord Salisbury if the man now an M.P. was one of her subjects. Lord Salisbury answered that he was. Queen Victoria said to her Prime Minister to the effect that she didn't see any problem with that. End of discussion.
After the war maybe in 1947 King George VI and his family, including then Princess Elizabeth, sailed to the Union of South Africa for a long visit. And this was before the Nationalist Party won in the 1948 elections and started instituting the strict apartheid policy. Princess Elizabeth was instructed by South African officials that she was not to thank any of the black African servants that would do various tasks for her. Princess Elizabeth had been taught to treat the Royal Family's servants with respect and to always thank them. In South Africa the future Queen Elizabeth got a kind of lesson in how racism operates and oppresses, although in a uniquely privileged way.
I've read that Queen Elizabeth had great respect for Nelson Mandela, even awarding him with the Order of Merit. I've read that Nelson Mandela and Queen Elizabeth were a mutual admiration society.
The uk is most certainly not the oldest kingdom in the world!
Lovely. How smart is Queen Elizabeth II and what a negociator
Still here, Cousin Ant, spreading your ill-informed views? I'm old enough to remember the Ghana incident. Do you? I can tell from your language that it's obvious who the unreconstructed racist is.
may i ask? what is the significance of the dance? I am from Malaysia. Just curious to know. Was it because the Ghanain PM is a black guy?
This dance mean a lot, it was the first time the Queen ever did something because she wanted so in a politic view (keep the Commonwealth united in that case) . And even if his black the Ghanain president is still one of her subject, and because his a president he can dance with the Queen.
he is not one of her subjects , obviously, if she feels the need to "negotiate"... They were equals... except that he was selected by the people which makes him superior in my eyes...
Eitan Ino it was significant because AT THE TIME it would have been a big deal for the queen to Dance with an African leader, and it showed that she saw him as something of an equal.
Claire Foy is spot on with this role. It will be her most famous role....ever.
I laughed and cried at the same time watching this. This is a representation of how we can live together in peace.
I ADORE this scene. The way Philip looks at her 😍 Claire Foy and Matt Smith are irreplaceable
"That's my girl; that's my lady."
AGREED!!!
This is the definition of soft power diplomacy.
Yeah i was thinking the same the fiirst time a iwatched the scene this is exactly what diplomacy means
Yi kin sey dit agin!
She is an open minded modern queen with class
Claire Foy is beauty personified with such great acting skills. It is difficult to notice anyone else when she is present on screen.
I love how proud Philip was of her in this scene. He was a man’s man who didn’t adjust easily to being second banana to his own wife, but that look... wonderful.
Second banana. I see what you did there.........😆
The way the band lights up at 1:07 is perfection. One of the finest pieces of big band music and they absolutely nailed it. A performance befitting a Queen, television or not.
The band was awesome, weren't they??
I have to agree - it was the perfect piece of music for the occasion. Well played also.
I just adore this scene the music. Doing the foxtrot and she smiles and she's having a ball.
I loved this part BECAUSE it just goes to show us that she is AFTER all the QUEEN and is not afraid of of the skin color of the PERSON .
the queen is a badass
ask the king of Saudi Arabia, how much of a badass she still is
She's Grade "A" Gangsta!
MsPeppersmom yea she is👍👍
Savage Queen! That was so badass, especially back then!
@@tranurse yeah she drove him around to make a point about how women can and do drive xD
Can you imagine how cool it must have been to be an "Extra" in this Scene.
This was brilliant
I can not be an extra in this scene because Im neither black nor white =(
If I had had the money I would have paid to be an extra...
But... I have the wrong looks and skin colour: am neither black, nor white ... 😖😭😭😭
@@music-hx5lf For me I'm both English, Scottish, Nigerian and Samoan.
The end of an era seems to be here sadly. Thoughts and prayers to Her Majesty and the Royal Family 🙏🙏
Despite the fact that Prime Minister Kwame Nkrumah had very strong reservations about the British monarchy as a self-proclaimed communist, he must have admitted to himself as well to his fellow comrades that dancing with Britain's God-anointed Queen was the most enchanting evening of his entire life.
she dancing sir..............with an african lol
I DIIIEEEEEEDDD!!!!! LMFAO :D :D :D :D
It was not that funny at the time. And indeed, it was revolutionary in the eyes of many people. That is the point of this scene, not that The Queen went dancing and she happened to enjoy it.
What!
Dear Lord Jesus!!! 😂😂😂
"Hwot?!"
I'm not sure if it would be appropriate to make memes of Queen Elizabeth, but it would be so funny if someone put this scene with the ABBA song.
cakecrumb095 you are a Genius!!! I need someone to make this ASAP
That’s actually one of the queen’s favorite songs. Someone needs to do this loll
Dancing Queen was released on Polydor Records and Girls Aloud 'recorded for them as well. Nadine Coyle sang Voulez Vous and The Group were on ABBA Documentary
Look at the bright side, if she were dancing with the South Korean president, instead of the Foxtrot, she'd be doing the Gangnam Style instead.
JTN Akl yes😄
One of my absolutely favourite scenes. In reality this caused quite the controversy in the UK but mostly because the high up muckity mucks were so shocked and disapproving of her dancing with a black man (and Americans were horrified as the black population there was still mostly denied the vote never mind anything else). However moves like this by the Queen, and remember the royal family has zero political power, cemented the Commonwealth into what it is today. She was an amazing woman who wanted to change the way things were and she was well beyond her time. It was also known that Prince Phillip loved watching her shake things up.
I can’t take my eyes off Philip. He was literally beaming with pride
Him: I think we both understand the significance of this moment.
Her: Yes, but do we understand the terms?
Shrewd move, Queen. Shrewd move!
Shawn Cezanne Very much a quid pro quo. You give me what I want (not being communist) and I give you what you want (a dance and photos)
She was extremely shrewd and she could read people very well. That is her gift. Even if she did not get a formal education, she had great natural intellect.

This is one of my favorite scenes on TV, in movies, anywhere. Loved the guy who played Martin Charteris!
It is my favorite too! Love it when the dance band starts "Begin the Beguine!"
"Get her out of there!" so funny, like a parent!
When Lord Hexham says, I believe it’s the foxtrot. 😂😂
John Brunelli Downton Abbey 😍
“HWHOT?”
When he says 'I believe it's the foxtrot', his amazing facial expression makes him look like a charter member of the Drones Club. Priceless
What I thought most beautiful afterwards, my kids didn't understand the big deal... All they saw were two totals dancing together.. 💕

Yes...It’s my favorite scene in season 2...Cagey Queen. Smarter than she or anyone else realized...
"Our Queen is dancing..with a African..... WHAT !!!??" 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
This is my favourite episode of the entire series I have re-watched it so many times 😆🇨🇦
The palace officials must have fainted after hearing this.. Poor Philip!!! No one to dance with.
In real life, he danced with Nkrumah's wife while Elizabeth danced the highlife (not foxtrot) with Nkrumah.
To be fair this is not an innocent dance, is a diplomatic act from both, and Philip knew, thats why he looks so proud
Literally : YAAASSS QUEEEN
One of my favorite scenes in the whole series.
This is maybe my favorite scene of the 1st 2 seasons. Most of the time we saw her being a strict conformist and socially awkward. Here she is legitimately having FUN
yes, but do we understand the terms?
I don't.
Terms were to remain in the commonwealth and reject the communists
And they still are.. So I believe the terms were understood. Either that.. Or he really wanted to dance.
@@horatiohuskisson5471 How sad that most people only see The Queen enjoying herself and the old blokes worrying back in London and they never get the real point of it.
@@szabados1980 I'm not sure I understand
I love those camera flashes. We gotta bring those back
for the record, those flashbulbs induce seizures in some people. Whenever members of royalty (such as The Queen ) go on walkabouts - they've got at least 100 photographers from around the world following them at any given time. If you used those flashbulbs, you would most likely trigger seizures in a massive amount of society. Take a look at the footage and articles surrounding Prince Charles' first outings with Camilla. Flashbulbs went off left and right and look at how many people got sick. Those bulbs aren't for everyone.
"WHAT ARE THEY DOING?" "...the Foxtrott, Sir." This had me dead! 😂
The African guy is a class act
One of the most memorable scenes in The Crown.
the best scene of The Queen...I miss Claire Foy, she is perfect in that role
The queen was a brilliant spokesman for her country. Behind the scenes she was ruthless.
One of my favorite scenes in the series. It's wonderfully done!
When the world changed massively a white queen dancing with a black man was literally wrong at that time but changed the world 👌👌👌👌
Don’t hurt your arms stretching for that reach... while yes, the sovereign of the oldest monarchy dancing with an African was a HUGE thing when it happened. It did not change the world for black people around the world. Let’s not forget that I’m the States during this time was known as the Jim Crow Era pre civil rights. And in South Africa the arpartied regime was starting to gain traction.
So yes, the Queen dancing was a moment, and a step in the right direction. But it didn’t “change the world”
Changed the world because people realised that black people was as equal as anyone
The telephone conversation though 😂😂

I really like claire foy with that hair and that dress which making her gorgeous.
