For those not aware “a coming out.” Was when a lady of noble birth like Rose reaches a certain age and is presented to the Royal Family and everyone at court and where suitable matches to find a suitable husband of title are arranged.
Lady Sybil had hers but it was never shown.
louise westie rather like a horse show. High pedigree mares looking to be matched with proper studs. This same practice was adopted by Americans in “lower” classes to emulate the aristocracy. I went through this. What a genteel sham.
I went to graduate school with a "southern belle" who told me these "coming out balls" or "presentation balls" were still being held in her hometown of Mobile Alabama in the late 20th Century. "Presented" to whom??-- we have no royalty in America. And there were separate balls for white girls and black girls, as segregation continues its ugly legacy. As a westerner, I was shocked! The South truly is "different," and still hasn't come to terms with losing the Civil War and the abolition of slavery.
@TheSmithersy Well, actually not too far off, in terms of definition. It's more like 'coming out' = 'I'm available, come get me.'
@@markmh835 I read about Mobile once, isn't it there that they call the US Civil War "The late unpleasantness"?
zitronentee lol! A “come and get it!” Ball!
By far one of my favorite scenes! I love how Cora and Robert took care of Rose like true parents, and how Violet treated Rose like one her granddaughters.
Violet was Rose’s Godmother, and Robert, while actually her cousin, treated her like a niece.
The Dowager Countess of Grantham is the Aunt of Lady Flintshire. Lady Flintshire's mother and Violet are sisters. Making Lord Grantham and Lady Flintshire cousins. Thus the Dowager Countess is Lady Rose's Great Aunt.
Subconsciously, they were so glad to have been given some sort of a replacement for Sybil.
@@m.layfette6249 ohh thank you! I’ve been wondering about the exact connections for ages now aha
@@Luke_05 You're welcome. Rewind back to Season 1, Matthew and Lord Grantham are 3rd cousins 1x removed.
The King throwing shade at the prince and his exploits was priceless lol
They had a rocky relationship. Which is one reason the son became so wacky and ended up having to abidcate.
When the hate comes from inside the house.
Reading what he used to write about his son in his journal, he didn't have a high opinion of him.
@@boredlawyer3382 I hadn't picked up on the fact that he's "that" Prince till you mentioned this. Thanks.
@@ludastout2852 King George V, first cousin to Tsar Nicholas II and grandfather of Britain's current monarch Queen Elizabeth II
Robert is so cute in this part. This is so nervous and excited, like a proud dad.I´m glad Rose had people who cared for her.
Right??? He and Cora loved Rose like she was their own daughter, both were beaming with pride for her this day :)
Nesseire Rose's father loved her dearly! That is why he approved of her living with the Crawley's, so that she would not be trapped in India, at her mother's mercy.
A "Lord Lieutenant" is the personal representative of the monarch to a county area. Hence Robert's reference to having a court position. While in England in 2019 I met the Lord Lieutenant of County Durham, Sue Snowdon, at a concert.
Vilwarin Robert?
Robert and Rose were like kids when their hero noticed them like the King did.
Sometimes, the money spent on this show was crazy, but unlike most modern movies, every penny is on the screen. Such magnificence.
Yes, except one thing, I’m not sure that there were a plastic surgeries during that time. But some faces are obviously with some surgeries done..
The surprised look on Rose's face when the king addresses her is priceless. Cora is proud as she responds with grace and composure.
Not just Rose, half the room.
Sometimes these comments are just like if an AI was trying to interpret for a blind person.
@@LindafromHr😂
As someone who is going blind and knows several who are blind, I’m grateful.@@LindafromHr
She probably had the Crown Prince to thank for this, as he reminded his father that Lady Rose was the daughter of his ambassador, Lord "Shrimpie".
I wish my coming out had involved an outfit that fabulous and a party afterwards, instead of sweatpants and an awkward conversation with my mum
I was wondering how they stay warm in those flimsy sleeveless dresses or do they only wear them in the summer?
SFV Native well if you look at the crowd that's just actual people and not aristocrats, they're wearing proper coats and hats
A different coming out, I gather!
One of the best laughs I've had in a month! Very funny comment! Thank you!!!!
TheRenaissanceman65 i’m a wholeass lesbian
Lord Grantham: “ I feel rather guilty about cousin Isobel not being here “
Dowager: “ why? She brought her book with her to read “ 😂😂
Lol, Harolds awkward encounter with The Prince is priceless !

HRH in private: "Those tacky Americans!" 😂

@@strivingformindfulness2356 😂 he ended up marrying an American though
I LOVE that he's able to laugh at the situation! XDDD
Howard figured that the prince put on his pants the same way he did.....🤔....oh well....you don't have to be Royal or Nobel to feel this way....." just entitled....." Loved the show very well done...but these are just the 1%ers of the world....even back then.....
Rose looked amazing in her dress, she really grew up at Downton.
Her curtsy was also textbook perfect. I wonder how long it took Lily to learn how to do it properly. It's not the standard sort of curtsy one would deliver upon meeting a member of the royal family today.
She had better influences at Downton than she did in Scotland.
@@feverspell although it must be noted that Princess Anne gave a similar curtsy to the late queen whilst accompanying the coffin back to London.
The court announcer is Alastair Bruce, a historical advisor for the show.
With added moustache.
Downtown abbey is the best movie in the world. In the world what do you think?
Currently serving as Governor of Edinburgh Castle. Fitting, given his lineage.
Well spotted! That guy has forgotten more about history than the average person will ever know.
@?, ?, Ok Boomer
Cora’s mother is so savvy about fortune hunters. . I simply adore her character! ❤️
cause she herself was title hunters at least before the war! selling cora to english lord for respectability
she aloud her daughter to marry one so
@@christianurena510 that's to buy herself status
I agree. Have you ever toured the "cottages" in Newport, RI? They are very modest.
@@samanthasmith61I thought it was Cora's father, who arranged Cora's marriage. Mrs Levinson may not have cared much about the title.
The dress is beyond gorgeous! Nostalgically want this fashion trend to come back.
Nowadays people still can wear vintage clothes, you know? Difference is we have a choice. Back then they did not. And not everyone wants to wear such clothes
I had an elderly neighbour now long dead whose heyday was the Twenties, she once told me she was glad I liked to wear sensible court shoes with kitten or cuban heels and showed me how she had ruined her feet wearing the fashionable pointed shoes of that era. The pointed toe style is now back in fashion, don't be tempted to wear them, you'll get hammer toes, like she had.
I always thought the robe de style was an awkward silhouette... The drop waist and paniers just don't go together.
@@KateeAngel You have to defy a lot of social norms to dress like Downton people. So technically nowadays people don't have the choice to dress like this if they want to be socially accepted
Our lifestyle doesn’t work with most of this stuff; you’d ruin the thing trying to catch the bus.
They also shot scenes of Buckingham Palace in Lancaster House just like the Crown I feel like it’s in the same universe
Lancaster House is basically movie world Buckingham Palace at this point. I know of seven or eight different tv shows and films where it's been used as the Palace.
@@ArtemisScribe Interesting that it is used so much. It was built for Duke of York just before his brother, George IV modernised the Palace. It really is magnificent. When Queen Victoria visited the Duchess of Sutherland there she told the duchess, 'I have come from my house to your Palace.'
@@mscott3918 Vicky was really good at compliments, I'm always hearing things like that she was supposed to have said to people.
@@ArtemisScribe Yes, I believe she could be very complimentary. She was also good at receiving them. She wrote a well received book about her life in the Highlands, I have a copy that she gave my great great grandmother, who was Mistress of the Robes to her and Queen Alexandra. Prime minister Disraeli also wrote a popular novel called Endymion, and when talking to The Queen would refer to We Authors, which she liked. She also had a great sense of humour and never actually said, 'we are not amused.'. That is now ascribed to Elizabeth I. Victoria was frequently amused, at one lunch having to hide her tears of laughter with her napkin.
Also the actors look very alike compared to the kings speech
I just love how Cora's mother flippantly refers to her "cottage" in Newport. If you've ever spent time in Newport and Europe, those "summer cottages" on Bellvue's mansion row are essentially the American equivalent to the grand castles of Europe 😂😂😂
That's actually what the Newport wealthy called their palaces--"cottages." Cora's mother wasn't being flippant since she used the name everyone used for those grand homes. It stemmed from the fact that Newport summer homes up until the 1840s were literal cottages--small, wooden homes built in the New England style. Then the wealthiest plantation owners from the South discovered Newport and loved the place. It was a great, breezy escape from the sweltering, humid summers down South. They bought up some of these literal cottages and expanded them into large, New England-style homes. However, these edifices were still called "cottages." Then New York society discovered Newport in the 1870s. In the 1880s New York's top families started tearing down these normal-sized homes for actual palaces. The Astors were the first to do so, soon followed by the Vanderbilts. But they still continued to call these palaces "cottages," which I guess was a bid to retain the tradition from long ago? Who knows.
@@Luboman411 As seen in Mr Fellowe’s other hit show on HBO “The Guilded Age”! Love it, but not as much as “Downton Abbey”.
@@Luboman411 That's an entertaining and informative read.
At this rate the entire series will be on TH-cam by the end of 2020.
Let's hope so
It isn't
Why isnt it on Netflix?
@@KingAgniKai it's on britbox, which is like British Netflix.

Anyone else notice the prince’s expression goes from smiling at Rose’s compliment to flatlining at his father’s backhanded one? 😂😂
Oh yeah
@6:47
This is one of my favorite scenes from the entire series.
Uncle Harold completely breaks all Palace protocol and introduces himself to HRH Edward the Prince of Wales as though they were at a salesmen's meet and greet convention dinner.
And? Royals aren't special you know
@@piusx8317 yes they are. Thats the fucking definition of royalty you dimwit.
@@piusx8317 this is still that era when monarchs were seen as the great stabilizers in Europe, buthave since been declining to what now consider as old celebrities for thir respective nations
Harold seems like the guy that would talk to you about crypto
@@piusx8317 You're missing the point. It doesn't matter if royals are actually special or not. They could be as special as a ham sandwich. Know the ground rules of wherever you go, unless you want to embarrass yourself.
Cora´s mom talking about having a cottage in Newport is soooo gilded age!!!!
Yes but is it accurate? Would the Christian widow of a rich Jewish husband lived in a Newport cottage in the Roaring Twenties? I have my doubts and I would have had even greater doubts about that happening 20-30 years earlier when the husband was still alive. My impression is that Society with a capital "S" was still Protestant until at least around WWI if not later. 11/4/21
I found it in bad taste, really.

Alistair Bruce (who plays the role of the man announcing each debutant) is a well known historian - he was instrumental in insuring that details in the Downtown Abbey series were all correct.
He did the commentary for the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II and for the coronation of King Charles III.
He's also a Major-General in the Army and Governor of Edinburgh Castle.
Almost.
I read an ‘interview’ with Hugh Bonneville, done at the time.
He said someone had a question about something, Alistair wasn’t in the studio and couldn’t be reached by phone.
Hugh said, ‘we took our best guess and hope we were right.’
“The “coming out” of a young woman represented a change in her status from child to adult and her “introduction” to society. This became formalized in English aristocratic society in the first half of the nineteenth century through the Victorian period. Up to the point of their coming of age of seventeen or eighteen, girls did not have much of a role, other than to attend to their schooling, as social functions and contacts were fairly limited. A young lady’s introduction to society not only marked her transition to adulthood, but also her availability for marriage. Marriages were no longer being arranged by this time, so the formalization of the event helped insure that she would meet young men who were deemed suitable by her parents.
For those in “society” with contacts to the royal family, the actual coming out was the introduction of the debutante to the king or queen. This usually occurred in June when the debutante would go to the royal palace at an appointed time. This was a big event with the debutante dressed in a long gown with a trailing court train wearing a tiara headdress. Indeed, she would practice getting in and out of a coach before the appointed day so that she could move gracefully when she arrived at the palace. The event itself was quite short, but was formal and conducted with a certain amount of “pomp and ceremony”. Once introduced, the debutante emerged as an adult and it marked the beginning of her first social season, although if she did not get married or engaged, the coming out was often repeated.” www.victoriaspast.com/Coming%20Out/Debutante.htm
I quite like how much class and dignity this outfit involves and yet how much modernity and 1920s spirit the whole look represents. Very much like a reflection of where Rose comes from and where her own path is leading as a woman of those socioculturally revolutionary days.
Professor Mcgonagall is savage as usual xD
I expect that she'll get her wand out soon and make sure that Voldemort doesn't spoil the party.
Love that comment
😹 in DA her words are her spells
My special needs brother John calls this show Professor McGonagall when he hears her voice.
The musical score adds to every scene immensely - well played
Paul Giamatti has done some fantastic work over the years.
By today’s standards, Coming Out would have a whole different meaning.
Very tacky
I was just imagining a modern coming out in a setting like this. How glorious that would be.
Ah ah!
@@lisilein2 It would have a Glorious Purpose a la Loki.
I can think of quite of few parents that would be more accepting of the notion if that meant they got to ride in a fancy car, wear tiaras and uniform, and move up in society. (This is sarcasm of course).
Paul Giamatti was a great casting decision for the show!
So grand and regal. One of my favorite scenes during the entire series.
Godddd the costuming in this show was IMPECABLE, it's like being sent through a time machine
I love the little flirtings looks and conversations between Cora and Robert ❤
I love Lily James! She is so talented ❤️
The brother of Cora looks like the mayor from lazy town
He is
The exchange between Harold and the Prince still tickles me so much. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I loved Shirley McClain and Paul Giamatti in this!
3:35 The last time John Adams was at an English royal court, it was an awkward experience. :p

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAa
Lol!
I don't get the reference, who is John Adams??
@@ticketyboo2456 Second President of the US. Paul Giamatti played him in the 2008 HBO series about him.
Cora is marvellous here😍😍😍
Don't worry Harold, he won't reign for very long, the Duke of York is a safer bet.
The Duke of York wouldn't have said very much, but at least he would have been polite about it.
@Ber P. whatever Colonel Blimp.
@@rayhuntley8966 Berp's from Patterson, NJ. Reading her comments is like smelling a dog fart in a hot car.
And the Americans coming to the assistance of the UK during WW 1 and WW 2.
@AB. B. Considering we saved Great Britain in two world wars, I'd say we know a thing or two about civilization and how to behave. 😉
John Adams is looking good for nearly 200 at this point!
Thanks
One of the most interesting things about this was that she was wearing a bustle. Never realized bustles were still around at all in any context (except maybe theatrical performances) in the 1920s.
Strictly speaking those are "paniers" (a bustle sits on you bum, paniers left and right on your hips). And I think that may be a "court fashion" thing? I´ve never seen them in 20´s fashion plates.
I loved Harold and Madeline together so much 😭😭
I really wanted to see the two penpals in the first movie, but they didn't show so maybe the second one ...?
I loved this! It was done so beautifully! And Lady Rose was such a great addition to the Crawley household. So beautiful and full of energy and joy. The absolute best part was the Prince of Wales crashing her party and dancing the first dance with Rose! ❤
It's a pity that the character of the Prince of Wales was so dull. He never wanted to be king largely because he enjoyed the society parties. The actor playing the PoW in Downton Abbey has no personality, certainly does not have the looks that the PoW had, which had women swooning over him. He didn't have the personality which made him very popular amongst the men. He was a dull "stick" who had no conversation, no personality and, as shown at the party for Rose, couldn't dance - clumping around he dance floor.
@@monique8641 I thought he was just trying to play down the actual Prince’s character as to not offend the Crown. Personally, I liked him a lot! (Comparison: As Mr Fellowes “played up” Cora’s rich, obnoxious mother. Made me think he hated Americans!)
@@SummerRain368 I have to disagree re Cora's mother. He was having fun with how the aristocracy viewed Americans at the time (and vice versa) and only Shirley MacLaine could have played that. I especially loved, after she sang "Let me call you Sweetheart" the silent but totally startled reaction of the Dowager (so many words in that silence) and then the startled look as Cora's mother kissed her hand.
As to the Prince, he did more than offend the Crown. King George V had stated that 12 months after his own death, the prince would have ruined himself, so the Crown was already offended. He was a party boy who attracted the women and had no desire to become the monarch. They could have found a less wooden actor to show the immense personality that the then Prince of Wales had.
@@monique8641 Well, I see we don’t agree on either characters here. But I’m right!! 🤭😂😂😂
And years later in "The Crown" the Queen and Princess Anne would receive Prince Philip's Mother at the foot of the stairs.
Love this! It seems so real and with the camera work I feel as if I am there. Brilliant.
They seem to go to great lengths to achieve historical accuracy in this show but it struck me as odd that there would be groups of people in the throne/presentation room standing around chatting some with their back to the King and Queen whilst they were holding audience.
It wasn’t a formal court, so they didn’t need to be at attention to the king.
@@flyboy152 you see everyone shut up and turned around when the king spoke to rose about shrimpie
@@dkar09 Of course when the King speaks, everyone stops talking. But he rarely spoke during the presentation courts, so at other times, the people in the throne room weren't at attention.
02:24 - The man reading out the card is Alistair Bruce OBE VR DL, and historical advisor to Downton Abbey. His wikipedia reads, amongst others, "A godfather to Viscount Severn, the son of Prince Edward, Major General Bruce also serves in HM Household as Fitzalan Pursuivant since 1998." He would have made sure that everything is accurate in this scene to a T!
@@landibear6509 except i saw part of an interview with Hugh bonneville posted here on TH-cam, back when the series was still airing.
He said the cast and crew had an accuracy question, and Alistair couldn’t be reached.
Hugh somewhat sheepishly said, “we made our best guess and filmed.”
Robert; I feel rather guilty at leaving Isobel behind
Violet; Why? She bought a book with her that should keep her occupied
Robert; What sort of book?
Violet; I can only tell you that on the train it was more interesting than me
Violet you Savage old lady, I wanna be like you when I grow up 😂😂😂😂
This is one of my favourite scenes in the entire series! ✨Joy✨
That's King George V and Queen Mary, right? So the Prince of Wales would have been the future (and notorious) King Edward VIII.
Correct.
Why does Ms Dudley Ward call him David
@@xs10086 Because that's his real first name, given to him at birth. Edward was his King's name that he chose to be known as when he became King. Kings can do that. Same with his brother who became king when he abdicated (the current Queen's father). His Kings name was George VI, but his real name was Albert. The Queen Mother always called him 'Bertie'.
@@jasminderpinder Technically his name was Edward Albert Christian George Andrew Patrick David, so that was why he took the regnal name Edward VIII, but he was known as "David" in the family, because, I think, there were already various Edwards and it might have gotten confusing (just like Lord Louis Mountbatten was nicknamed "Dickie" despite "Richard" not being among his given names, as one of his middle names was Nicholas but there were already various Nickies).
@@xs10086 because that was his given name. Edward is the name he chose when he took the throne
Cora's brother at the end was great
Paul Giamatti is fantastic in this role!
I think they did a great job at casting the actors for King George and Queen Mary
That’s just my thought watching this- they look so much like king george and queen mary
@@overcomerbtbojesusKing George was more handsome than this
@@GodisMyNo1 So was the Prince of Wales. All the women in the UK were after him. He was a dashing and very handsome and charming character, apparently. I felt the only miscasting in Downton was that of the PoW who was dull, not particularly good looking and couldn't dance - as shown at the dance for Rose. He was clumping around the dance floor unlike the other actors.
They made poor Mary of Teck look ancient here. She wouldn't have been that old
Mary of Teck was born old.
The wealth it took to play in those circles. the fashion budget alone had to be astronomical.
Probably about 60
56 to be precise.
Mary of teck tbh aged quiet badly so they did accurately
Lady rose's dress is fabulous. so pretty.
One of my favorite Downton!
Ah. The Edwardian Era. Only nostalgic if you were living the rich life like these folks.
For everyday people, it was hard work and hard times.
It is still the same,isn't it?
This was after the Edwatdian era
This is the Georgian era!!! Because it was King George V who reigned. The Edwardian era was before king George V
@BelaDJ1 except that the term Georgian is usually used for the reigns of the first 4 Kings George
A melhor série ❤
My god their costumes!!! 😍😍😍
It is so nice they used their historian -immediately recognizable by his voice.
I really love this episode of Downton Abbey...when Rose 🌹 meets the king and Queen of England ...
Whatever would I do without Downton Abbey. I need my DT Abbey fix.
I was glad in Season 1 that they mentioned Sybil going to the Season, but either they didn't have the budget or popularity to present it. So in Season it was presented. Whoo
So she wasn´t presented??
@@jennifersantiago8747 Yes, she was, it just happened off-screen.
It's so cute the way Rose's shoes peak out from under her gown at 2:43.
Why do I have flashbacks to a Simpsons episode?
Posh woman: that is my daughter the debutant, she came out last year.
Show a rather unattactive woman
Mr Burns' son: whoa! well put her back in, she's not done yet.
Larry Burns ftw
😂🤣😂🤣
I watch so many clips I think I just need to rewatch the whole series at this point.
Always makes me laugh at the end!
I would have liked to know more about the relationship between Harold and Madeline. They just touched on it in this episode but it would have been really interesting, considering he didn't think she was like all the others who were just after his money. Paul Giamatti is a great actor!
This episode was their entire relationship. It was his second (and probably last) visit to England. And during his first, for Cora’s wedding, Madeleine wasn’t born.
@Quaker 2019 I saw the episode and you have recounted what happened in the episode which we all know. What I was referring to was that despite the games between Madeline's father and Harold's mother, there was a spark between Harold and Madeline, despite the initial hesitancy and expectations of gold-digging. That is what I was interested in seeing more of.
@Quaker 2019 Oh, boy. They are curious as to what might have come from time and correspondence because there actually IS a little something that develops between Madeleine and Harold. The actors had decent chemistry together.
@Quaker 2019 The movie got pushed back to March 2022, and at least according to the currently available cast list, neither character appears.
@@flyboy152 They became penpals, so that's not true really.
Missed Rose in the movie :(
Have you seen The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. She is sweet in that movie on Netflix.
It is very interesting to research some of the details that come out regarding the Prince and Mrs. Dudley-Ward's relationship. If you also get the chance, attend the exhibit when if comes to your city, beautiful and was fun to compare facts with other people attending the exhibit.
Very beautiful series
I love Paul Giamatti lol
I remember reading (Edward VIII's autobiography?) that these functions became more and more ridiculous during George V's reign, as the greater the length of the debutante's train became a fashion statement, and they got longer and longer to the point they were tripping over each other. They would arrive with the train draped over their arm, and then at the door to the throne room drop it and the chamberlains would then spread it out behind them before they walked in. Too bad they didn't show that.
Yes and Frances Donaldson's --- bio -- Edward VIII actually thought them anachronistic. Had he stayed on the throne, he would have changed a lot of court life, as would have Willis Simpson. I read a hilarious account of when she saw Balmoral, and said, "Oh, this tartan has got to go!" Much to the horror of the servants. She even complained that there was "not a green vegetable in sight" at the dinner table!
This girl is pure happiness
donde puedo ver los nuevos episodios muy buena
I think Rose's presentation was a success!
I love that in "The Crown" there was a journalist who called for the queen to stop doing this stupid ritual.
Poor Violet, she's my favourite character! I wish she could have presented Lady Rose to the King and Queen.
Madeline is so freaking gorgeous!
Yes, probably the most beautiful woman featured in DA after Sybil.
I dont care what anyone says, it looks fun and excitting
@Rhys Hoffman Great book! Also read "In Tearing Haste: Letters between Deborah Devonshire and Patrick Leigh Fermor" edited by Charlotte Mosley.
One funny thing I just realized is all the different costumes worn by the domestics and aristocrats in that scene. You have beefeaters from the 17th century, those wig wearing "butlers" from the 18th century, the guards and announcer are dressed in 19th century style, the noble men are also in the 19th century while the ladies are in the 20th century... If Martha Levinson really existed, I believe she would have mused about the English not "letting off of tradition's hand."
Butlers don't wear wigs. They are footmen. Very different.
Que saudade 😭❤️ Essa música é tudooo ❤️❤️❤️
Como é o nome da série e da música? Por favor
I love this show I’m about to finish 5 season
Does anyone know the name of this theme? It’s a variation of the show’s main theme I can’t find it on Apple Music 😭
"Did I make the most of loving you"😊
@ 4:07 Shirley MacLaine, my *Hero*! She is great, a great Actress, in whatever she does... LPM 💙☮️🎵
I second the motion! Shirley MacLaine has such talent and versatility. The woman we see here was also Charity in "Sweet Charity". Wow! For decades Shirley MacLaine has been one of America's finest performers. Her career has been a gift to millions of people.
She's a horrible person in real life.
@@SFVnative according to her daughter unfortunately
I love the cameo by Alistair Bruce! 😁
season #1 is really the only one necessary. It's the best of them.
I wonder if the tradition of the Coming-Out Ceremony started out as a way for the king to get first dibs on who could marry the heir to the throne. And if the king was a widower; who *he himself* could marry.
If so, I bet in Henry VIII's time the Coming-Out Ceremony was equivalent to selecting a sacrificial virgin.
It wasn't. Just two Kings married English noblewomen, practically every other king or queen married foreign royality.
Edward IV really is the only true example, having scandalously married a 'commoner' instead of a French princess. While Henry VIII had quite a traditional first marriage. The only two other examples are Kings who were younger brothers, and thus never likley to be King, so had more freedom. George VI and Richard III.
Like Alex said, this wasn't really the case. In Anglo-Saxon England or really in any country/province/region/kingdom where the main conflicts and threats are internal, it makes perfect sense to marry royals off to high-ranking noblewomen, because it means that they're families are now allied with the crown. But if a country is more international and England/Britain definitely was by this point, it'd be a waste for a Monarch to marry a noble from their counrry and waste an alliance with another country. While many of the English Kings had affairs and married multiple times, Henry VIII is an oddity. Which is why he stirred up so much trouble.
Probably not. The heir to the throne only married foreign princesses. Nobility was beneath royalty.
If tradition had been maintained, Prince William would have married Madeleine of Sweden for example (they are actually of the same age !).
Shivadasa
The tradition began as early as the 16o0s, where women of high society (or noble birth) were presented in court to the King and Queen of the day for the first time. It continued for many centuries in the same kind of fashion. Each year, young women from ‘well-to-do’ families were presented in court. From this point, they were expected to mingle in high society and were treated as adults. It was also hoped that their entrance into high society would lead to ‘suitable marriages’.
Queen Elizabeth II finally banned the practice of the elitist debutante balls in 1958 within the UK, in the midst of a whole load of controversy. The last debutante young women were presented in court that very same year. Revivals have been attempted, but none on a particularly large scale and the practice has largely died out in the United Kingdom.

Went on a Tour to Buck Palace 5 years ago I was in awe like Rose was
These scenes were filmed in Lancaster House not Buckingham Palace

Jokes apart this was my one of the most favourite episode
Paul Giamatti is hilarious 😂
"Why did you say I was?"😂
The duchess of Marlborough mother’s house in Newport, Alva Vanderbilt’s Marble House.
Poor old Alva, someone once said - "a marble house for a marble heart" ouch. Of course, Counselo and Sunny did not last. He left full plates of food at the dinner table, and she knit. Sad, but not unpredictable.
Little does he know that a cottage on Bellevue Ave. is a huge mansion.
@@rocketmom60 He knows. His face has the look of "I smell money."
Do you mean "Newport"? Rhode Island? Spelling...
@@boredlawyer3382 It's so tacky how the Brits cowl to the Americsns for cash as they are so broke
2:22 I never noticed before that the herald making the announcements is Alistair Bruce.
@Quaker 2019 he could be a historical advisor to anything. Friggin genius.
6:26 her crown is amazingly plastic. diamonds are gone at the back side. i remember harry potter for this though...
this is what Bridgerton think they are :
Is the one presenting Alastair Bruce? It's so weird hearing his voice after watching the documentary
Yes he was the series historical advisor
Oh rose I absolutely love her. She reminds me of myself a little bit. Lilly James has come so far since DA and I’m proud of her.
The Queen put an end to this ridiculous tradition, which was to allow daughters of the upper class to find husbands.
Yes, and bless her for it! Trotting out ( presumably) virginal girls to be selected for brood mare duties was a relic of the past.
It actually wasn't her idea
Why did she? I want to know.
Uh it's still around but it's called something else entirely now
Think me silly but I do kind of like the splendor of it all 😁
Как, где можно посмотреть этот фильм полностью?
Howard moseying up to the Prince of Wales like that (“improper” address, crumbs on his coat, etc) reminds me of a certain clergyman in “Pride and Prejudice” approaching Mr. Darcy 🤣
