The Crown: Fairytale (2020)
Season 4, Episode 3
9/10
Edward, Margaret, now Charles and poor Diana
17 February 2023
This episode made me so emotional. I didn't know much about the royal family before watching this show, so seeing Margaret's story in the beginning following what happened to David/Edward pissed me off. By the time we get to Charles and Camilla I can't believe I'm seeing it play out again. As much as Charles' actions anger me, he nor Diana should have ever been in that position. Margaret says it best when she points out that the royal family CANNOT learn it's lesson.

Besides the heart breaking story, the acting and cinematography shine as usual. Diana roller skating through the palace, her scene alone in the ballroom, and the queen walking through the palace while it lights up with fireworks were all breathtaking. Camilla as a smoking silhouette at Highgrove was among my favorite shots as well.
