    The irony that the Church of England was founded so Henry VIII could divorce Kathryn of Aragon and marry Anne Boleyn but that same church denied Margaret and Peter's marriage is mind boggling.

      A. Michelle Henry Vlll was the church of England, a despot. He did what he wanted to do at the end of the day. 400 years later the parliament and church and culture are stronger than the kings and queens of England. At least in the mid 1900's.

      The Church of England was not created so that Henry could get a divorce. It was created to invest Henry with the power to annul his marriage on the grounds that it was contrary to God's law to take his deceased brother's wife to wed. Divorce remained extremely rare in the Church of England, including among the aristocracy, until well into the modern period.

    I think the sisters admired the differences in each other. I think it broke the Queen's sister heart when she denied Margret the marriage to Peter. The fact that they were able to move past it speaks to the bond and love between the two of them.

      @EVALLOYD 3 ปีที่แล้ว +39

      Until the age of 25, the Queen could refuse her sister to marry which she did and Margaret was asked to wait. On reaching 25,, Margaret could have married Peter Townsend, however she would have had to give up her right in line to succession to the throne as would have her children. Perhaps that played in the balance for despite all Margaret was very attached to her status as Princess and all the frills that went with it.

She has had to cope with so many scandals within the royal family, and has always maintained a sense of dignity no matter what the situation.

      Yes, Queen Elizabeth is a good hearted humble, firm and disciplined family Woman. Women can be best leaders, and luckily she was brought up as an ordinary Royal decendant with no expectation of being a Queen until very late in her family's life that he realized that she must groom and train her sothat she ascends to the throne better equipped than him. She didn't marry into power, Power and Authority came to her Father And because of love and respect for his nation he obliged. Perhaps that's what may have caused him to smoke even more regularly. 😁. I also admire Queen Elizabeth as the best Queen ever👏👏👏👌👌🤴🤴🤴💘💘

    After watching the Crown the Netflix Series, gave me much deeper understanding that it's hard to make correct decisions especially when the issue of Margaret and Peter, Lilibeth had to decide base on her response whether as a sister or as a queen. And as well as the feelings that Margaret dealt with, we're all humans we make mistakes and feel emotions of envy, unfairness and loathe yet it's remarkable to see how that didn't break the relationship between the two sisters.

    Yes indeed, they looked both so similar almost like twins. It was hard to tell them apart. I don't think that Princess Margaret was more beautiful than her sister Elizabeth. There father was exceedingly dashing, handsome man with beautiful features, but his wife on the other hand was quite plain, more simple in her physical appearance. She must've had a strong personality though. From what I've seen in another documentary, he had asked her many times to marry him and she refused many times until she finally accepted. Elizabeth looked so much like her father. I think her personality is a lot like his. He seems to have been a more genteel man, with a more demure, timid personality. And it must've been difficult for him to have been thrust into the spotlight when he was given the kingship.

    One doesn’t get COPD from an old injury. The King didn’t die bc he was thrown from his horse. That’s rubbish. Elizabeth’s father had lung disease as a result of his chain smoking. Why obscure the truth? The danger of tobacco wasn’t known back then so it’s not like it’s a stain on his character.

      I think the one they were referring to was Elizabeth's grandfather, not her father. Both were styled as King George.

    I think it is just so natural that siblings have different personalities. For the second and the third child, there is always a example with whom they are always compared to. Sometimes it can be pleasant and sometimes not.

    From watching The Crown, I have now a deep respect for Queen Elizabeth and all she's been through. Being Queen is not a piece of cake. As for Margaret, she knew there can only be one Queen and Elizabeth was in line for the title. No need to be jealous. The girls were raised learning the protocols of the crown. That's it. She had all the privileges and comfort of a Princess. She had a beautiful life. She could have put it to better use. When the Queen gave her duties she choose to act frivolous where she could have been a tremendous help to her sister and help lighten her LOAD. At least, they loved each other very much.

      But Elizabeth's job wasn't hectic. I mean the government did everything for her. All she did was listen to the prime minister, give advice, go do charity work, do pr for the UK (all those overseas trips), and deal with a bit of family drama. I watched the crown and it didn't seem like being a queen is difficult at all.
