王冠第四季

这两集的时间线以马岛战争前后贯穿下来，核心人物便是撒切尔夫人。

第四集 Favourites 最爱1. 撒切尔的宠儿撒切尔最爱的孩子是儿子马克。

剧中的撒切尔对此十分坦诚1951年，撒切尔夫人(1925-2013)与丈夫丹尼斯·撒切尔(1915-2003)结婚，并在1953年诞下一对龙凤胎，马克和卡洛儿。

撒切尔的儿子马克1982年，撒切尔夫人的儿子，马克·撒切尔参见巴黎达喀尔汽车拉力赛(Dakar Rally)，曾在撒哈拉沙漠(Sahara Desert)一度失踪。

达喀尔拉力赛，是一个每年都会举行的专业越野拉力赛，事实上这是一个远离公路的耐力赛，1979年开幕，举办至今。

比赛对车手是否为职业选手并无限制，80%左右的参赛者都为业余选手。

儿子被救后仍自鸣得意2. 福克兰战争（马岛战争）此时，撒切尔已上任三年，通货膨胀达到12%，三百万人失业。

引得女王训斥1982年4月，阿根廷的军政府入侵福克兰群岛(阿根廷称之为马尔维纳斯群岛)。

福克兰群岛阿根廷自1830年代以来便声称拥有福克兰群岛的主权，因而一直与英国发生纠纷。

内阁对发起战争有支持有反对 在入侵发生不久，玛格丽特·撒切尔便指派英国皇家海军重夺群岛，福克兰群岛战争爆发。

光把士兵送过去就要三周1982年6月，英国战胜阿根廷，夺回群岛，重申主权，使英国国内一时间因为撒切尔夫人而重燃爱国热诚，而她的声望亦由谷底反弹。

Godspeed!这里还展现了女王和首相的从政治立场而影响到的个人哲学，前者无为而治，后者霹雳手段。

撒切尔表示不采取外交途径3. 女王的宠儿菲利普的宠儿是安妮，而女王对四个孩子进行了一一面谈，她的最爱是二子安德鲁。

安德鲁与一少女女王的幺子爱德华，竟然也被送去了菲利普和查尔斯去的那个学校，戈登斯托恩(Gordonstoun)，显然他在这所学校比他哥哥更能应对。

爱德华王子此时一年拿着2万英镑的王室津贴安妮此时已与马克·菲利浦斯1973年结婚，并育有一子一女。

此段婚姻并不顺利，公主和Sergeant Cross发生私情。

剧中的安妮对戴安娜有些小不满二儿子安德鲁此时身在海军，和母亲吃饭时还讲了未成年少女被“艺术”的故事。

女王和安德鲁吃午饭不得不佩服编剧皮特·摩根(Peter Mogan)，很多事情毕竟无法直接挑明，单靠对话和台词就能暗含和映射很多信息。

对美国亿万富豪爱泼斯坦(Jeffrey Epstein)的调查，也让其生前好友安德鲁王陷入X侵丑闻。

19年11月，安德鲁王子宣布将不再履行王室公务。

爱泼斯坦被指控X侵未满18岁的女性，19年8月，在曼哈顿监狱中“自杀”身亡。

据报，爱泼斯坦与上流社会的权贵及富豪交往甚密，密友名单包括美国总统特朗普、前总统克林顿夫妇以及英国王子安德鲁。

可参考纪录片：《杰弗里·爱泼斯坦：肮脏的财富》

安德鲁和爱泼斯坦长子查尔斯1981年7月与戴安娜结婚，定居在海格洛夫庄园(Highgrove)，距离卡米拉的住处车程只有15分钟。

女王前来时，戴安娜已怀有身孕不愿离开卧房。

1982年6月21日，戴安娜于晚上21时在伦敦圣玛丽医院生下威廉王子。

卧床的戴安娜查尔斯是真心喜欢园艺，女王又一次展现吐槽小能手。

查尔斯说不喜欢直线，女王说你这游泳池子不是直线嘛。

查尔斯说一切都要有机，女王说那你这网球场也是有机的？

查尔斯开始自我陶醉的念白时，女王开始走神说不如早点吃饭吧。

这里一定要看老戏骨Olivia Colman的表演，真得笑死。

之后吃饭时对查尔斯也进行了训斥。

全片印象最深的是女王和安妮公主的谈话，明明是一个站在顶端的家庭，快乐还是那么难得。

女王的zz理念和育儿哲学都差不多第五集 Fagan 费根1. 私闯王宫这集编剧是Jonathan Wilson和Peter Mogrgan，不得不说，编剧太会“以小见大”了，同时在真实事件虚构情节反而更为突显现实。

英国编剧Peter Mogrgan有人私闯女王住宅是真，两人谈话为假。

可正是这虚构的聊天内容，反而道出当时普遍和底层民众的处境和心声。

麦克费根1982年7月的一个清晨，麦克费根(Michael Fagan)闯入了白金汉宫女王的卧室。

早在同年6月，他就私闯过王宫，不过当时惊扰了一个女员工，在警卫来之前跑掉了。

麦克费根被送往了精神病院接受治疗剧集中的的对话纯属虚构，女王看到他后只说了一句“你在这里做什么”就跑掉了。

In a 2012 interview, Fagan told The Independent that the Queen was wearing a knee-length Liberty print nightdress in a double bed and said to him: “Wawrt are you doing here?!'" before running out of the room to get help.

麦克费根仍然在世，前段时间得了新Guan2. 当时背景1982年4月2日，马尔维纳斯群岛战争，简称马岛战争（福克兰群岛战争）爆发。

4月中下旬，南乔治亚岛(South Georgia Islands)被英方夺回。

6月14日，阿根廷驻军司令梅南德兹少将向英国皇家海军陆战队的摩尔少将投降。

英军在六月二十日重夺南乔治亚与南三明治群岛并接受当地阿根廷军队的献降；马岛战争参战双方正式停火。

长达七十四天的马岛战争共有死亡数字255名英军、649名阿军、3名福克兰居民。

英国zf已下令有关福克兰战争的机密资料将在2082年解封。

阿根廷的战败导致了更大规模的反zf运动，最后导致军zf倒台。

对于英国来说，强烈的爱国主义情绪横扫全国，加强了以首相撒切尔夫人为首的zf的权威，同时帮助保守党赢得了1983年的普选。

首相前去敬礼而非女王尽管最终撒切尔的强势手段治愈了“英国病”，即反复发作的高通胀，可同时也影响到了民众的生活，这是为其带来坏名声的原因之一。

货币主义(Monetarism)，又称货币学派，是1960年代形成的经济学流派，以挑战凯恩斯主义的面貌出现。

货币主义在提出之初并不受重视，直到撒切尔夫人在英国采用货币主义政策，使英国经济成功复苏，货币主义政策开始受到各国重视。

（来源：维基百科）

在其执政初期，失业人数达到三百万人，底层民众的生活愈发困难。

而正是在这种情景下，费根才会前去私闯王宫，借编剧之口讲出社会现状。

撒切尔信奉货币主义理论，上台后就进行大刀阔斧的改革。

她主要采取四项措施，一是私有化，二是控制货币，三是削减福利开支，四是打击工会力量。

她为了减少通货膨胀实行紧缩政策，使得商业损失和破产均有增加。

《王冠》第四季分集简介-第1-2集《王冠》第四季分集简介-第3集世纪婚礼《王冠》第四季分集简介-第6-8集《王冠》第四季分集简介-第9-10集

这三集的主场人物分别是戴安娜王妃，玛格丽特公主和撒切尔夫人。

女王戏份大幅缩减。

第六集 Terra Nullius 无主之地1983年3月5日，澳洲工党以压倒优势大败自由党，鲍勃·霍克(Robert Hawke，1929-2019)成功当选澳大利亚总理，接连执政至1991年。

Bob Hawke片名无主之地(Terra Nullius)指的是早先对澳大利亚的称呼。

无主之地的称呼同年，查尔斯王子与戴安娜王妃出访澳大利亚和新西兰，受到了当地人民的热烈欢迎，民众们尤其是对戴安娜十分热爱。

1982年6月21日，戴安娜诞下威廉王子。

1984年9月15日，戴安娜诞下哈利王子。

查尔斯王子与戴安娜王妃在戴妃的坚持下，几个月大的威廉王子也一同随行，这也算是开创了一项传统，现在凯特王妃有时出访也是带着孩子。

剧作十分还原了1954年，女王出访，是直接把孩子留在家里半年。

女王和菲利普1996年戴安娜在与查尔斯分居后受访时说，她曾因受不住作为王室成员压力患上暴食症(bulimia)，有时候一天要吃四、五餐，每次都吃到胀然后呕吐。

1995年戴妃惊爆世人眼球的访谈！

_哔哩哔哩 (゜-゜)つロ 干杯-bilibili据她的采访，她认为王室成员是不知情的。

在剧情中，这已经传到了众人的耳中。

三个八卦小能手在飞机上，戴安娜和助理的争吵，看得我觉得两方都很有理说得都很对。

正如戴安娜所说，在没有温暖的家庭长大的孩子怎么会有人性。

戴安娜或许不是常规的王室成员，但绝对是个好母亲这个旅途中，戴安娜终于和查尔斯甜蜜了片刻，在当民众的热情主要集中在戴安娜身上时，两人关系又开始恶化，快乐就像是偷来的，太过短暂。

跳舞的两口子戴安娜前去见女王，临走前给了一个熊抱。

不得不说，感情缺失的女王真得很适合高位，可也正是因为她没有给到查尔斯足够的爱，查尔斯才会缺乏安全感。

小戴直接抱了女王戴安娜和查尔斯都是在原生家庭中缺乏温暖，双方中没有一人可以强大到来引导对方。

成熟潇洒的卡米拉和需要认可的查尔斯的确更般配。

被惊到的女王菲利普，玛格丽特公主，曾是这个家庭最有“人味”最强调自我与个性的成员，但他们放弃这些后，他们才真正融进这个环境；而就像一家子女性成员在餐桌上讲的，如果戴安娜不能屈服(bend)便会破碎(break)。

王室认为戴安娜现在还不成熟，但终会不再反抗第七集 The Hereditary Principle 世袭原则每一季都会有一集聚焦在玛格丽特公主(1930-2002)身上，这一集讲述玛格丽特在看心理医生的过程中发现了家庭内的一个丑闻。

玛格丽特公主海伦娜·伯翰·卡特(Helena Bonham Carter)饰演公主，发现这个家庭秘密去找她母亲王太后伊丽莎白质询，而她在2010年电影《国王的演讲》中同样扮演过伊丽莎白这个角色。

HBC在国王的演讲中的扮相她母亲那一系，有家庭成员有着精神疾病(mental illness)，因爱八退位后，鲍思-里昂家族(Bowes-Lyon)，本是一个minor苏格兰贵族，一下子成了和王室有直接联系的贵族，为了维护王室颜面，其有疾病的成员被隐藏了起来。

鲍思里昂家族两位被隐藏的女性而她父亲这一支，本就是有着精神疾病的基因，乔治三世（参考电影：《疯狂的乔治王》），约翰王子（参考电影：《失落的王子》），即乔治六世的弟弟。

乔治五世的家庭现在整个欧洲王室的祖奶奶维多利亚女王本身就是血友病患者，在她嫁给自己的德国表哥Albert后生了9个孩子，四处和王室联姻，把这个“传女不传男”的疾病基因四处散播了出去。

维多利亚女王的子嗣第八集 48:1此集讲述女王和撒切尔对南非种族隔离持有不同态度而产生的分歧。

这两位的对话是一大看点1985年，48个英联邦国家打算对南非的种族隔离政策进行制裁，而唯独撒切尔持反对意见，正是片名48:1。

女王希望能制裁种族隔离剧中的剧情是，女王与其他联邦领袖持相同意见为此和撒切尔而产生分歧，当这份不满见报后，引来许多违宪的批判。

王室持续坚称当否认无法服众后，只好以白金汉宫发言人Michael Shae为替罪羊。

Michael Shae对于南非这段历史，可以看下南非脱口秀演员及今日秀主持人Trevor Noah的很多脱口秀节目以及他的自传《Born a crime/天生有罪》。

南非的种族隔离（Apartheid）以四种人为分类：白人、有色人种、印度人与黑人。

日本人被视为与白人同等级，而当时在南非的中国人被视为与黑人一个等级。

早在1927年当局就有禁止欧洲裔和当地人通婚的条例《Immorality Act》。

崔娃南非在历史上曾为英国殖民地。

1961年5月改名为南非共和国。

在白人统治时期长期在国内以立法和行政手段推行种族歧视和种族隔离政策。

1994年4月27日举行了首次不分种族的大选，产生了制宪议会和新政府，曼德拉出任南非首任黑人总统，同年终止了种族隔离制度。

曼德拉1986年，约克公爵安德鲁王子(1960-)与莎拉·佛格森结婚，后于1996年离婚。

两人育有两女，Beatrice和Eugenie。

婚礼当日，安德鲁还被查尔斯讽刺为王室的边缘(fringe)成员。

也就是自讨苦吃。

无论是主动制造问题，还是被动遇到问题，主动去处理的好。

真实的查尔斯何许人谁也不知道，仅就电视剧呈现的，我觉得查尔斯婚前积累的真实世界的经验太少，最主要的是与各阶层各种人打交道的经验，他的舅爷路易斯·蒙巴顿，他的父亲菲利普亲王，无论主动被动吧，都很擅长察言观色并与人快速熟络。

路易斯蒙巴顿就不说了，海军元帅，印巴分治缔造者，一辈子没打漂亮仗但总是政治交际圈的最顶尖。

他父亲，菲利普亲王，剧中呈现的很多，那个斯巴达学校，本来他也是石头一块，被人踢来踢去，后来他用实际行动（独自筑墙）赢得了全体教职工的心，人心的向背唰的一下就扭过来，他有了无数的追随者和好的师长，再也不孤独。

5个月的奥运巡游，他也可以很快成为整条舰最讨人喜欢的长官，而不是颐指气使自怨自艾的王夫。

我想说的是，查尔斯可能不具备处理复杂人际关系的能力，他不是不想帮戴安娜，而是帮不了。

王室是一种完全不同的文化，电视剧故意让撒切尔当被试，结果铩羽而归，对这家人留下三个词的评语：粗野、势力、粗鲁，基本上人人都神经的够够的，菲利普倒是不错，可他也只跟够斤两的人敞开心胸，玛格丽特直闹得全世界喧嚣尘上，才值得菲利普去碰一下肩膀，露半个微笑，查尔斯这好大儿尚且看不上，戴安娜这个软软小绵羊更不值得他出手回护。

欲戴王冠，必受其重。

伊丽莎白的爹，乔治六世，本来就口吃，抽烟，当了国王，焦虑加重，每天六十支烟，几年就没了。

倒是温莎公爵，是个当王的好材料，就剧中所呈现的，他天生具有权谋天赋，朕即天下——旧一套的东西门儿清，他打的算盘是先结婚，把眼前的蛋糕吃掉，流放中间再想办法复辟，敌人的敌人就是朋友，和纳粹结交抢抓时机再回国当王，江山美人全都要。

英国国教当年还不是为了对抗罗马教廷搞出来的自成体系，哪有什么神圣性，全都是权宜之计而已。

我觉得温莎公爵并不是说非要急于一时， 他觉得自己弟弟一家人全都是傻瓜蛋。

他想的是把这套帝王之术自己玩好了以后再传给温莎家的后代，不至于让秀兰邓波儿给搞失传喽。

大家好，我是戴着眼镜拿着话筒的阿拉斯加，片片。

头铁、血厚的见得不少，但敢在生前就彩排葬礼，还不止一次的硬核玩家，世上少有。

“超长待机”的英国女王伊丽莎白二世就是这样的选手。

先来一张女王年轻时候的美图镇楼作为英国女王，她一旦驾崩，可是举国上下的大事。

而她的葬礼方案也不是这几年才制定出来的，早在女王34岁的时候，国家就开始为女王驾崩做好了万全准备。

女王在不同地点、不同时间离开人世的各种方案，早就整得明明白白。

但一晃半个多世纪过去了，女王送走了一届又一届政府，熬倒了无数当初跟她同时活跃在政坛上的政客，她仍然屹立不倒。

最近，以她的王者生涯为蓝本改编的电视剧《王冠》强势回归。

目前这部剧一共四季，评分最低的一季9.2分。

没看过前三季不要紧，片片先给大家总结一下。

前两季主要聚焦于女王的青年时代，父亲乔治六世猝然离世，彼时伊丽莎白正代替父亲在非洲考察，在慌乱中登上皇位。

女王尚且稚嫩，扑面而来的却都是惊天动地的大事儿：带领英国走出战争泥潭的首相丘吉尔卸任；

个人认为《王冠》里的丘吉尔不输任何一个影视化版本，刻画出了晚年敏感焦虑的丘吉尔妹妹玛格丽特公主爱上了有妇之夫，两人想要结合，玛格丽特必须放弃王室身份；还有从13岁起就陪伴自己的丈夫菲利普亲王出轨。

身处皇室，家庭问题就等同于国家问题，“内忧”和“外患”同时袭来，女王是焦头烂额。

第三季，中年版女王上线。

玛格丽特公主则由小天狼星的表姐贝拉·莱斯特兰奇饰演此时的女王显然更游刃有余，但时代进步飞速，生性保守的女王，有时却与这个日新月异的时代格格不入。

到了这一季，除了女王本人，导演把戏份分给了另外两位举世瞩目的女性——撒切尔夫人和戴安娜王妃。

主海报也一改以往女王是绝对主角的模式通过这几位女性的故事，《王冠》之所以季季封神的原因也水落石出。

其一就是见微知著。

虽然讲的是英国皇室，背景是国际上的种种风起云涌，《王冠》的切入点却无一例外，都非常细微，但直击要害。

撒切尔夫人执政的头几年，她的经济转型政策造成了英国国内失业率居高不下，怨声载道。

与国内局势截然相反的则是，在英国和阿根廷为争夺马岛主权爆发的战争中，英国大获全胜。

剧中没用一个马岛战争的镜头，或任何表现国民失业悲惨现状的画面，来突出这种反差。

当然也有可能是为了省钱。

（一个玩笑哈哈）取而代之的是撒切尔在国内备受人们认可，风头一时无两的画面。

电视画面里，撒切尔夫人正取代女王检阅部队与之形成鲜明对比的则是一件女王执政生涯非常小的波澜。

一名长期失业的中年男子，想通过政府人才市场找工作，但始终没有结果，只能靠打零工勉强度日。

他认为，现任首相撒切尔夫人的无能，把英国带向了深渊，于是他不断向国会反映问题，却始终没有得到回应。

某天，求助无门的他竟突破了白金汉宫的安保系统，闯进女王卧室，想直接找她谈话。

但当天女王碰巧不在白金汉宫，安保人员也没有抓住他。

过了些时日，男子再次闯入。

这回，他终于见到了女王。

女王虽然非常惊恐，但仍然跟他进行了十几分钟的谈话，他通过这个契机，向女王传达了底层真正的声音。

与女王见证过的其他历史相比，这件事实在显得微不足道。

却把当时英国外强中干的现状刻画出来。

再举一个例子。

皇室的种种宫闱秘事前几季已经讲了太多了，皇室成员也是人，不可能永远精准、不出差错。

但为了维护皇权，不让人有机会质疑宪政，皇室必须假装完美无瑕。

皇室的表面夫妻远不止这一对这才有了玛格丽特公主无法与真正爱的人相守，人们对菲利普亲王的风流韵事也都避而不谈。

但你以为被掩盖的只有种种丑闻？

身为皇室，连基因都有可能要被藏起来。

一个偶然的契机，玛格丽特发现，自己有五位表姐妹生活在精神病院，而且这几位表亲在很多年前就被宣布死亡了。

知道真相的玛格丽特非常愤怒，找到母亲对峙。

母亲这才道出真相，原来，这几位表亲的精神疾病源于家族遗传。

如果世人知道了皇室血统中有如此大的隐患，那么本就岌岌可危的世袭制很可能再次遭到质疑，因此，皇室隐瞒了这几位表亲的存在。

也就是说，生而为皇族成员，从出生起，整个人就只剩下社会性，而失去了个人属性。

甚至连基因，都要为皇室、为统治服务。

如果你不符合标准，对不起，只有一个下场，那就是被和谐。

几位并不重要表亲如此，身处皇室中心的女王以及她的伴侣、子女更应如是。

如果说王室身份要求女王一家人抹去自己的人性，那么《王冠》另一个厉害之处就在于，集中展现了人物在理性与感性之间挣扎。

在几乎封神的皇权面前，这种挣扎更显示出了人物的丰富。

比如，哪怕贵为王室，家族成员之间也在暗暗角力，都想成为更光彩、更有权威的那个。

女王和撒切尔夫人政见不一，前者更倾向于无为，后者大胆果决，两人常常针锋相对。

某次，撒切尔夫人提到两人同龄，女王装着傲娇镇定地样子问道：谁更年长一些？

当得到自己比撒切尔夫人小半年的答案之后，女王表面上不动于色，却明显有被人压了一头的感觉。

这种较劲甚至体现在两个女人的服装上。

马岛战争大胜，撒切尔夫人正在政治生涯的最高峰。

女王一直对出征马岛持保留意见，但面对如此战绩，她完全被气焰高涨的撒切尔夫人压制。

深蓝色套装也是撒切尔夫人的标准性造型两人一个着深蓝一个着浅蓝，浅蓝被深蓝完全压制。

而等到撒切尔夫人政治生命的尾声，她面临国会质疑，如果没有女王支持，被迫下台几乎成了定局。

但女王没有伸出援手，她选择让政治体制自己去运作、疗伤。

这一次，深蓝浅蓝调换。

谁强势谁弱势，一目了然。

这种暗暗较劲几乎存在于每一个皇室成员身上。

女王唯一的女儿安妮公主，性格非常耿直，作风严肃。

因为她热心慈善，并且是一名职业马术运动员，曾代表英国参加过奥运会，很受国民爱戴。

这位公主可是货真价实的运动员然而，明媚热情的戴安娜嫁入皇室之后，不免有人将两人放在一起对比。

相比不苟言笑的安妮公主，开朗、有亲和力的戴妃显然更受人们欢迎。

安妮公主也因此心生不满。

不仅是安妮公主，甚至是查尔斯王子都不能忍受自己妻子太过耀眼。

基本上地球人都知道，查尔斯王子和戴妃的婚姻差不多就是一场骗局。

查尔斯钟情曾有过婚史的卡米拉，但为了维护皇室的体面，他的王妃必须是一个背景简单、性格纯粹的小女孩。

这个女孩儿正是戴安娜。

这还原度也是没谁了但这对强扭的爱人婚后都有各自的情人，尽管婚姻一度到了走不下去的地步，为了维护王室尊严，两人被迫成为表面夫妻。

戴安娜想和查尔斯重修旧好，因此在庆祝他生日的演出上大秀舞技。

人们倾倒于王妃的魅力，但看台上的查尔斯却不买账。

他强颜欢笑着，内心其实非常不满自己这位抢眼的王妃，风头几乎盖过他这位准国王。

随后，王妃独自访问美国，美国国民都对这位大方亲民的王妃充满好感，反响非常热烈。

外界看来，戴安娜是个完美的王妃，卡米拉也自愧不如，这更是激怒了查尔斯，让他们的婚姻彻底堕入冰窟。

圣诞夜，女王一家欢聚一堂，合照时，为皇室赢得颇多好感的戴妃，却像个局外人一样格格不入。

是不是差点就找不到人前闪耀的戴妃这时，身在高位的孤独与无奈被渲染到了极致。

观众也终于看到，神圣不可动摇的皇室里，有的只是一群被命运抬到这个位置上的普通人。

他们同样有贪欲、有私心、有嫉妒。

因此，看这部剧能看到的不仅仅是风起云涌的大历史，还有诸多鲜活生动的人物。

也正是在要求光明、完美的王权映衬下，才更突显人性的复杂、微妙。

这也是这部剧之所以一直保持高水平的原因。

第五季，观众熟悉的乌姆里奇教授将出演老年伊丽莎白二世，《信条》里身高190的美艳女主会出演更为成熟的戴安娜王妃。

我已经迫不及待想看主创怎么演绎戴妃离世的大戏了。

当然，如果想继续看视频解说这部剧，听我掰扯女王在位这六十多年来，波澜壮阔的历史，点点在看，呼声高的话，一定视频伺候。

今天就聊到这儿，拜了个拜本文图片来自网络编辑助理：阿苏

本季是王室成员和首相被黑的最惨的一季，可能是暗合当下的困局对这一政治制度本身的思考和反讽吧。

铁娘子代表了帝国最后的一段辉煌晚霞，除了马尔维纳斯群岛

还有在南非问题上的坚持，40多年过去了，解除了隔离的南非从世界人均GDP第五的发达国家沦为了如今这操性，大萧条的当下和热血澎湃的80年代，

寻找小糖人 (2012)9.22012 / 英国 芬兰 瑞典 / 纪录片 音乐 传记 / 马利克·本德杰鲁 / 西斯托·罗德里格兹 Steve Rowland迫使我们对“政治正确”四个字必须做更深刻的理解，恰巧此刻的2021，人类再一次站在“政治正确or not”的十字路口，不过历史和政治只会以它固有的模式发展和演进，越来越趋遵循人性之弱的水往低处流，从来不刻意追寻所谓的“正确”，黑命贵也好metoo也罢显而易见是一种廉价的政治正确，可它们是为了政治利益而冲顶热搜的正确，看看一年多来在灯塔国发生的一切，也许民主本身正在走向尽头。

互联网使人性发生了异变，变得更懦弱和愚蠢了，更爱牢骚满腹的抱怨和过多的自我怜悯，就像最后一集菲利普亲王、伊丽莎白二世对查尔斯和戴安娜的斥责，更易激动更易被洗脑，党同伐异，瞬间热泪盈眶瞬间热血沸腾，独立思考从一项人性最基本的能力变成了稀缺的品质，现而今竟然连对独立思考的容忍和包容都收缩到了极限，即便是在所谓自由的民主世界；或者，人性本身没有异变，只是互联网使过去没有机会发声的懦弱和愚蠢的人类获得了过去他们从未真正掌握的政治权利和表演舞台。

那可就更悲哀了，这说明民主从它诞生的那一天就并非真正的民主，并将随着它走向越来越真正意义上的民主而崩溃。

伊丽莎白二世充当民主吉祥物执政的70年，正好完整见证了这一人类历史上的伟大兴衰。

完整的再一次回顾这整整四季《王冠》，我感觉更像是一部恢弘的名著了，就私体验而言，我觉得很像我同样喜欢的《金瓶梅》，从上到下数十个人物里，没一个好人，菲利普亲王的自恋毒舌和跋扈，撒切尔夫人的专横、偏心眼和自私，玛格丽特的荒诞和迷失，查尔斯的愚蠢懦弱猥琐，安妮的易怒，戴安娜的虚荣……简直集齐了七宗罪了，最好笑的 favourites 那集，最后伊丽莎白不得不跟丈夫感叹，咱俩怎么就生下了这么四个玩意儿！

可是，我们再抛开这些所有的头衔，他们又都是无比可爱可怜可悲悯可欣赏的普通人，他们的奋力追索，恐惧迷失，尊严与责任，贪婪和欲望虽然看上去那么的矫情和活该，可本质上都跟我们每个人一样。

更厉害的是，在看他们的人生的时候你丝毫感觉不到，也不介意那些人性之恶，并且能为他们动容和共情，这也是金瓶梅的伟大之处，若干年后再回首，BBC的这部旷世奇作也许会拥有同样卓绝的地位。

除了政治和人性，这一季讲的主题是爱情与婚姻，撕去那些头衔和爆炸新闻、报纸头条，原来这小俩口的困惑竟然和我家楼上每天吵架每天和好又注定会分开的俩口子一样啊，在那两集中，菲利普亲王，安妮公主和女王奉献了几段经典的对白，简直就是对普通婚姻的警世恒言，振聋发聩，有意思极了。

期待伊丽莎白二世还能继续待机下去，期待BBC继续拍下去。

原文链接The fourth season of The Crown stretches from May 1979, when Margaret Thatcher is elected Britain’s first female prime minister, to Christmas 1990, shortly after she has been drummed out of office. Peter Morgan, the show’s creator, tells us: “We do our very, very best to get it right, but sometimes I have to conflate [incidents] . . . You sometimes have to forsake accuracy, but you must never forsake truth.” The forsaking of the truth, the perverting and twisting of known facts, is what has always concerned me throughout the four seasons of this series. It is about real people, often put into fictional situations.The main protagonists in season four are Thatcher and the Prince and Princess of Wales, clashed against some of the other characters from season three and earlier. This creates a new problem for anyone watching it since in both these relationships there are numerous contradictions, there has been much side-taking and it is possible to slant things in a variety of different ways. Nevertheless, even having taken that into consideration, there are established truths and untruths. My conclusion on this series is that it is yet more subtly divisive than earlier seasons. Pretty much every character is dislikeable. The Queen is portrayed as glum and schoolmistressly — quite unlike the real Queen. The Queen Mother is given some truly horrible lines; Princess Margaret is downright rude; Thatcher buttoned up. Diana is the heroine of this series, largely portrayed — in my view often unfairly — as the victim of a heartless family.Episode 1Did Lord Mountbatten write Prince Charles a letter urging him to settle down, on the day he set out for his ill-fated boating expedition at Mullaghmore?❌ FALSEThe Crown shows Lord Mountbatten on holiday at Classiebawn Castle, Co Sligo, on the morning of August 27, 1979, about to set off on a fishing trip with his daughter and other members of his family. He writes Prince Charles a letter urging him to find “some sweet and innocent, well-tempered girl with no past” to settle down with, and to do his duty. In reality, he wrote no such letter that day.He did, however, write to Prince Charles on many other occasions offering him advice, and many similar letters exist. Mountbatten was by no means a good influence. He urged Prince Charles to “sow his wild oats” before finding the unsullied girl. It’s true also that Charles held Mountbatten in high esteem. Mountbatten, it should be noted, was blown up at Mullaghmore by the IRA before Lady Diana Spencer came on the scene.Episode 2Do the Queen and the royal family lay secret protocol traps for hapless visitors to test them when they come and stay at Balmoral? Did they apply this to Thatcher?❌ FALSEThe Queen and the royal family go out of their way to make their guests feel at ease at Balmoral. In real life, Mr and Mrs Thatcher arrived at the castle on Saturday, September 8, 1979, a mere three days after Lord Mountbatten’s ceremonial funeral at Westminster Abbey. No hint of that in this episode of The Crown. It has to be 1979 because clearly they have never been before. But unlike what is shown in The Crown, there was no torturing of Thatcher, no maids being superciliously rude to her, no wrong-footing in silly games, no making her ill at ease for wearing the wrong clothes or shoes, and no, Thatcher did not plead pressure of work in London and leave early.In The Crown Diana too is invited to Balmoral to be checked out and succeeds and passes the tests, which Thatcher failed. Diana’s visit was, in fact, a year later, in 1980, and at a time when the Queen was not there.Was Thatcher berated by Princess Margaret for sitting in Queen Victoria’s chair at Balmoral — a chair in which no one must sit?✅ PARTLY TRUEA scene shows Thatcher retreating from a stalking expedition and working at a desk, where Princess Margaret strays across her. She berates her for sitting in Queen Victoria’s chair. It is true that there is a chair at Balmoral that no one should sit in — a winged armchair that was indeed Queen Victoria’s. It is in one of the drawing rooms, and about ten years ago the Queen had it moved to a place where people would not easily reach it. Queen Victoria was very tiny, so had Thatcher used it at her desk her chin would have been where her elbows should have been.Episode 3Was Thatcher out of place when staying at Balmoral?✅ TRUEThatcher was not particularly interested in country pursuits, but she went to Balmoral quite happily for the traditional stay by the prime minister in the late summer of each year. After the first Balmoral visit in 1979 her husband, Denis, wrote a letter, later quoted by their daughter, Carol: “There was a house party and some of the people who’d been shooting didn’t come in until later and then there were more drinks — because they’re very generous with drink — and then we went in for dinner. In their language it’s probably very informal but nevertheless you’re on tiptoe. There’s the usual sort of after-dinner conversation over coffee and then the Queen withdraws fairly early . . .”Did Prince Philip summon Prince Charles to the hanging room at Balmoral to command him to marry Diana?❌ FALSEThe Crown suggests that Prince Philip carpeted Prince Charles after the visit Diana supposedly made there in 1979. Presumably the film-makers chose the hanging room, where they skin the wildlife, to emphasise the idea of lambs to the slaughter. No, Prince Philip did not arrange such an encounter. The truth is that Diana began to be pursued by the press in the autumn of 1980, when the media got a hint that she might be Prince Charles’s future bride. She ran the gauntlet of photographers every time she left her flat in Coleherne Court, Earls Court.Aware of this, Prince Philip wrote to Prince Charles either late in 1980 or maybe early in 1981. Jonathan Dimbleby wrote in his authorised biography of “an intervention from the Duke of Edinburgh”, which had “a powerful if not a decisive impact”. The letter warned Prince Charles that he should decide one way or the other because he was risking damaging Diana’s reputation. Prince Charles interpreted this as “an ultimatum”, which was not the original intent. Thus, in a “confused and anxious state of mind”, the prince went ahead and proposed to Diana in early February 1981.Did Prince Charles really leave for Highgrove immediately after his engagement was announced, the presumption being that he would be seeing Camilla Parker Bowles, who lived near by?❌ FALSEThe Crown depicts those famous embarrassing lines by Prince Charles in the engagement interview at Buckingham Palace: “Whatever love means.” In real life Diana laughed nervously. In The Crown she looks cross. They have Prince Charles departing immediately afterwards for Highgrove, his Gloucestershire home, by implication to see Camilla. In fact, Charles and Diana dined with the Queen Mother at Clarence House that evening, which was also where Diana was staying.In this episode of The Crown, having seen Camilla, Charles then flies off — the very next day — on his official Antipodean tour. No. The engagement was announced on February 24, 1981. He flew to New Zealand on March 29, more than a month later, then on to Australia, Venezuela and the United States.Were the royal family beastly to Diana after her engagement, accusing her of not knowing to whom she should curtsey and making a clumsy entry into their midst?❌ FALSEWe see Diana arriving at Buckingham Palace and coming into a room filled with the royal family and bungling the curtseys. Princess Margaret tears a strip off her and they appear to mock her. This is spiteful rubbish. Diana had been brought up in the shadow of Sandringham, at Park House. Her two grandmothers and four great-aunts were in the Queen Mother’s household. Her father had been equerry to the Queen on the 1953-54 Commonwealth tour. She knew precisely what to do.Was Diana really clueless about royal protocol?❌ FALSEWe see Diana being instructed in many royal customs by her grandmother, Ruth, Lady Fermoy. Lady Fermoy is portrayed as a harridan. In real life she was much gentler (at least on the surface). Not only did Diana not need instruction in that way, but the nonsense the screen version Ruth Fermoy tells her granddaughter is risible. HRHs do not curtsey to each other. There is only one Page of the Backstairs etc.Diana did get advice about her new role from the four men in Prince Charles’s private office — Edward Adeane, Francis Cornish, Michael Colborne and Oliver Everett. Later in life she liked to claim that she was given no help.Was Diana cooped up in Buckingham Palace during the months before the wedding?✅ TRUEIn The Crown we see Diana dancing alone to her Walkman, rollerskating in the state rooms and confronted with trolley-loads of flowers and letters from the public. It’s here we first see her bulimia. As soon as she was engaged, the real Diana left her flat in Earls Court, first went to Clarence House, then moved to Buckingham Palace a few days later. She lived there for about five months until her marriage in July.The palace is more of a huge office/Edwardian hotel than a cosy home, and it is understandable that she felt gloomy there. The contrast to her life with her flatmates and this new life must have been sharp. One of the pages, working there at the time and looking after her, used to go out and buy her takeaways. So the loneliness and isolation portrayed in The Crown is accurate. It is also true that Diana did not see Prince Charles much before the wedding. She called him “Sir” until the day he proposed.Did Camilla Parker Bowles and Diana have lunch while Prince Charles was away in Australia?✅ TRUEThey did lunch together, according to one of Charles and Diana’s biographers, Sally Bedell Smith. Camilla wished to help her. However, Diana interpreted the motive for the lunch as being to establish that she would be mainly in London, leaving Highgrove and Gloucestershire and hunting as Camilla’s territory.All evidence suggests that whatever he may have wished, Prince Charles was perfectly aware that his relationship with Camilla had to stop when he got engaged, and that this was understood by all concerned. As Dimbleby put it: “Now that he was engaged to be married there was, and there would be, no other woman in his life.” Diana went into St Paul’s Cathedral for her wedding with her head down, and came out with her head up. She was now his wife, and genuinely hoped she could make him happy.Did Prince Charles give Camilla a special bracelet before his and Diana’s wedding?✅ TRUEIn The Crown we see Diana coming across the designs for a bracelet that the Prince of Wales intends to give his mistress shortly before the wedding. It is marked with the initials “F&G”, which Diana told her author, Andrew Morton, she thought stood for “Fred” and “Gladys” — Charles and Camilla’s pet names for each other.In reality, in the run-up to the wedding, the four private secretaries in Prince Charles’s private office became aware that Diana was preoccupied by suspicions concerning the prince’s relationship with Camilla. A bracelet was commissioned as a way of the prince saying goodbye. It had the initials “GF”, which stood for “Girl Friday”. Diana discovered the bracelet. She confronted Prince Charles and was not mollified. Nevertheless, he felt he should hand over the bracelet in person. The Dimbleby-authorised version is that this was the only time he saw Camilla between his engagement and the day of his wedding.Diana later told Morton that photos of Camilla spewed out of her husband’s wallet on their honeymoon. She believed that his relationship with Camilla never ceased. Clearly there were acute differences between the newlyweds right from the start of the marriage. On their honeymoon on Britannia, Diana chatted up the sailors and cooks, and he remained, as he wrote at the time, “hermit-like on the verandah deck, sunk with pure joy into one of Laurens van der Post’s books . . .”Episode 4Did Prince Charles call Camilla every day during the early years of his marriage to Diana?❌ FALSEPrince Charles had virtually no contact with Camilla at all for the first five years. Yet since Andrew Parker Bowles (the husband of Camilla) was commanding officer of the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment from 1981 to 1983, then colonel commanding the Household Cavalry and Silver Stick from 1987 to 1990, there must have been a few formal encounters. Dimbleby dates the resumption of contact between them to 1986, by which time Charles’s marriage had, as he put it, “irretrievably broken down”.Did Mark Thatcher cause a national crisis when he got lost in the desert during a car race? Was he Thatcher’s favourite child?✅ TRUEThe Crown shows Mark Thatcher setting off in the Paris-Dakar car rally in January 1982. We see Thatcher in tears at her audience with the Queen telling her he has gone missing.This did happen. Mark Thatcher got stuck in the Sahara desert in Algeria for four days, and although he was not lost, nobody knew where he was. There were fears that he had been kidnapped. Thatcher was deeply upset and was seen in tears when the press asked her about the disappearance. President Mitterrand of France offered military support. Denis Thatcher was loaned a plane and after a 31-hour search young Mark was located. Denis was none too impressed with his son, not least for the casual response he made to the massive rescue operation.The Crown stresses that Mark was Thatcher’s favourite of her twins. This is confirmed by her daughter, Carol, in the biography she wrote about her father: “The rest of us could relax a little because Mark had hung an ‘occupied’ sign on the family’s ‘embarrassing relative’ slot.”Did Princess Anne resent the popularity of the Princess of Wales, and the lack of publicity she herself got in the media?❌ FALSEThis season implies that Princess Anne minded the easy publicity the Princess of Wales received just for wearing a new outfit, when she was a hard-working member of the royal family who got none. The truth is that Princess Anne did not care one iota about that. She never sought publicity or public approbation, a quality she shared with the Queen and Prince Philip. In fact, the arrival of Diana was liberating for Princess Anne. No longer was she meant to fulfil a role as a romantic, fairytale princess in the eyes of the media — she could be what she naturally was, a successful and highly executive princess.Episode 5How true was the depiction of Michael Fagan, the intruder who found his way into the Queen’s bedroom?✅ TRUEIt was a great shock to the nation to hear, in July 1982, that a man had twice scaled the walls of Buckingham Palace, and that on the second occasion security had been so lax that he had found his way into the Queen’s bedroom. Fortunately he had no malign intent, otherwise it could have been a great deal more serious.We don’t know the Queen’s version, but Fagan has described what happened, and The Crown’s events are close to a faithful representation of what happened — the two break-ins, him drinking the wine and later his confrontation with the Queen. Along with the June 1981 firing of blanks at the Queen in The Mall (an incident ignored by the makers of The Crown), this shows the Queen’s courage and adroit handling of what must have been a terrifying experience.Did Thatcher usurp the Queen’s position by taking the salute at the Falklands victory parade?✅ TRUEIn this episode Thatcher has an audience with the Queen telling her about the successful end of the Falklands conflict, then announces that she is off to attend the victory parade at Mansion House, where she, instead of the Queen, takes the salute. It did not happen exactly like that, of course.Stanley was taken back on June 14, 1982. The parade actually took place in London several months later, on October 12. However, Thatcher did attend, while the Queen did not, because she was on a tour of the South Pacific at the time. There were definitely hints in the media at the time that Thatcher was becoming presidential in her approach.Episode 6The Prince and Princess of Wales went on a tour of Australia and New Zealand in March 1983. Did Diana throw a tantrum and demand to change all the tour plans so as not to be separated from baby Prince William?❌ FALSEIt was a new idea for the Waleses to bring baby William with them on tour. Diana did not wish to be separated from her son, born the previous summer. But, no, the tour was not rearranged. In order that they could be with William, the outgoing Australian prime minister, Malcolm Fraser (who lost the election just before the visit), asked a well-known philanthropist, Gordon Darling, to lend them his sheep station, Woomargama, which was situated between Sydney and Melbourne and close to Canberra (by Australian standards). Albury airport was near by and they were able to fly everywhere, returning each night to be with the baby.They took about 27 flights during their visit. The Waleses stayed at Woomargama from March 20 to April 17 and they had an entourage of 23 British staff travelling with them, including a private chef. Those staff who stayed at Woomargama made a significant dent in Darling’s cellar.Did Prince Charles feel overshadowed by Diana on that trip?✅ PARTLY TRUEThis was one of the early examples of “Di-mania”, but since the Waleses were getting along well and the trip was considered a great success, the prince was more concerned as to how it would affect her. She was partly elated and partly exhausted. He wrote that she was a great support to him at times when he felt gloomy.There was certainly a part of him that did not like being upstaged by his wife. At this time his annoyance was matched by his pride in her, but it is true that later on he came to resent how people were only interested in her clothes, and thus did not listen to his speeches.Did Bob Hawke, the republican prime minister of Australia, refer to the Queen as “a pig in twin set and pearls in charge of a herd of prime beef cattle”?❌ FALSEIn The Crown Bob Hawke is portrayed as a rabid republican, hoping a visit by an out-of-touch and unremarkable Prince Charles would lead to the removal of the monarch as head of state of Australia. His plans are thwarted by the public’s thrall in Princess Diana.Yes, Hawke was an avowed republican, but there was no appetite for change to a republic in 1983. Hawke got on well with the Queen due to a shared interest in racing. He would never have referred to Prince Charles as a “jug-eared bonehead”, nor made jokes at a press conference: “You wouldn’t put a pig in charge of a herd of prime beef cattle — even if it did look good in a twin set and pearls.”Episode 7Did the Queen sideline Princess Margaret when Prince Edward came of age?❌ FALSEIn The Crown we see the Queen and her private secretary, Sir Martin Charteris, informing Princess Margaret that Prince Edward has come of age and she would no longer be eligible to serve as a Counsellor of State. To explain — six Counsellors of State are appointed to act on her behalf while the monarch is abroad (or incapacitated). Only two of them actually act — and they do so in tandem.While it is true that from March 1985 Princess Margaret could no longer be a Counsellor of State (which did disappoint her because she had enjoyed doing it), it made absolutely no difference to her other royal duties. This episode exaggerates this to imply that Princess Margaret’s role as a working member of the royal family had come to an end.Another point — Sir Martin retired in 1977 and became provost of Eton. But he stays on right through season four. By 1990 he would have been 77, but his actor does not age. He remains as youthful as ever — looking about 45.Were the Queen’s cousins put away in a state lunatic asylum to save the monarchy?❌ FALSEThis has no basis in truth. In this episode Princess Margaret visits a therapist due to her “sidelining” and is told of the existence of her two cousins shut away in Earlswood mental hospital. In real life she took no interest in them.Next they have the Queen Mother telling Princess Margaret that these girls had to be shut away because had it been known that they existed, it would have had serious consequences for the monarchy after the abdication. The implication is that the world may have feared that a strain of lunacy had entered the family.The reality was that these two girls and three cousins had inherited a defective gene from the Trefusis family from which all five descended through their mothers. Nerissa and Katherine were the daughters of Fenella Trefusis, who married the Queen Mother’s brother, Jock Bowes Lyon, so this had nothing to do with the Queen Mother’s bloodline.Episode 8Did Thatcher defy the Queen’s wishes for sanctions to be imposed on South Africa?✅ TRUEIn 1985 48 countries of the Commonwealth wanted to impose sanctions on South Africa, but Thatcher did not wish to do so. As head of the Commonwealth, the Queen was inclined to support the 48. In this episode they concentrate on the differences between the sovereign and the British prime minister. On this there were obvious differences.The Queen was dedicated to the Commonwealth, one of the most important missions of her reign. Thatcher was not keen on it, and preferred to focus on good relations with the United States. On this issue Thatcher saw no merit in sanctions, believing that they hardened opposition rather than reduced it. The episode ends with one of the explanatory captions they sometimes employ — Nelson Mandela ending apartheid and crediting sanctions with making that possible.Did the Queen wish the world to know that she thought Thatcher was “uncaring”, and was she therefore responsible for placing a story in The Sunday Times expressing this?❌ FALSEHere they paint the Queen’s press secretary, Michael Shea, as an honourable man who would never betray the Queen or in any way impugn her political impartiality. In this episode, set in July 1986, the Queen tells Shea that just for once she wants her views known. Therefore, unwillingly apparently, he talks to journalists and the story breaks in The Sunday Times with the (real) headline. “Queen Dismayed by ‘Uncaring’ Thatcher”. The ensuing furore is such that Sir Martin Charteris (who in real life had long retired, remember) sacrifices Shea, telling him to resign and take the blame because a scalp is needed to divert the media from the Queen.The reverse was the case. Shea took it upon himself to talk to The Sunday Times. He then denied that he had done so, and when finally forced to own up, stated that he had been misrepresented. The Palace got rid of him by securing him a job with Hanson plc. What Shea had done was to relay his personal dislike of Thatcher’s policies to the world.The story of Shea has been exposed by many distinguished authors, not least Charles Moore in his authorised biography of Margaret Thatcher.Episode 9Was Prince Charles irritated by Diana’s surprise dance with Wayne Sleep at Covent Garden in 1985, which she intended as his 37th birthday gift?✅ TRUEThere was a private gala at Covent Garden in December 1985 (for some reason they say November, and no it wasn’t for his birthday) and at a certain point Diana slipped away and suddenly appeared on stage with Wayne Sleep and danced to Billy Joel’s Uptown Girl. This was meant to be a gift to her husband, but he took it amiss (an incident omitted from Dimbleby’s authorised biography). Sleep got the impression that Prince Charles was somewhat put out, instead of touched. In this episode Charles berates Diana with some ferocity.Did the tragic avalanche in Klosters in 1988 in which Hugh Lindsay was killed impact on the Waleses’ marriage to the point that Charles decided that he had to get out of it while Diana was determined that it should continue?❌ FALSEOn a holiday in Klosters, Prince Charles, Hugh Lindsay (an equerry to the Queen and his friend), a respected guide and Patty Palmer-Tomkinson went skiing off-piste. They encountered an avalanche in which Major Lindsay lost his life. According to this episode, the tragedy inspires Prince Charles to the conclusion that he wants to get out of his marriage and unite with Camilla, even though she is still married. Meanwhile, Diana declares that Charles’s near death makes her realise how much she would have missed him, so she declares that she wants to make it work.There is mention of the affair she had with James Hewitt and they suggest that she has dropped him. In fact, it wasn’t until 1992 that Prince Charles considered separation. And in real life the Princess of Wales blamed Prince Charles for this accident by taking Lindsay off-piste. She refused ever to return to Klosters and was dismayed that he did.Were Charles and Camilla meeting regularly at Highgrove by 1988?✅ TRUEAccording to the evidence, Charles and Camilla were seeing each other again by 1986. This series takes the Diana line that Charles and Camilla were in touch all the way through the marriage. Viewers should be cautious to accept this without question. They will see an angry Prince Charles, sometimes yelling at his wife, aggressive and demeaning to her. What is largely omitted is any account of Diana’s well-documented distressing behaviour, including tantrums and insecurities. The Crown clearly presents a one-sided portrait of the marriage.Were there several meetings between the Queen and the Waleses to discuss the crumbling marriage?❌ FALSEVarious meetings are shown in which the Queen discusses the predicament in which the Waleses found themselves and tells them to pull themselves together. In reality these did not take place. Until Prince Charles realised that Diana had been directly involved in the publication of Morton’s book, Diana – Her True Story, in the summer of 1992, he maintained a façade, and the hope that there was a way for the marriage to continue in some way or another.The Dimbleby line on this was that the royal family were aware of “the princess’s distress”, but did not wish to interfere. So there was no summit meeting with the Queen, Prince Philip and the Waleses until June 1992.Episode 10Did Thatcher try to get the Queen to dissolve parliament to save her skin at the time of the leadership crisis in 1990?❌ FALSEOf course Thatcher did no such thing. It is well known that when Geoffrey Howe resigned and delivered his devastating resignation piece (faithfully shown by The Crown), Thatcher faced a challenge to her leadership from Michael Heseltine. The outfall for that is well shown — the meetings with ministers, her gradual realisation that she must go, but then they introduce this nonsense.In The Crown they have her telling Denis that she has one card up her sleeve. So she goes to see the Queen and asks her to dissolve parliament and therefore call a general election. Theoretically she could have done that, and technically the Queen could refuse. But it never happened, nor would it have done.Was the Queen angry when Thatcher was ousted by her ministers in 1990?✅ TRUEThere is a genuinely moving scene in The Crown in which the Queen summons Thatcher to see her, and she presents her with the Order of Merit. I remember being told at the time that the Queen was not pleased by the way they got rid of Thatcher. So the line “I was shocked by the way in which you were forced to leave office” is spot-on. People have persisted in thinking the Queen and Thatcher did not get on. The Order of Merit is in her personal gift, as is clearly explained here, and her gift of it is evidence of her respect for her first female prime minister. Thatcher was surprised and delighted to be offered it.If further evidence is required, the Queen appointed her a Lady Companion of the Order of the Garter in 1995 — again her personal gift. She attended her 70th and 80th birthday parties and was present at her funeral in St Paul’s Cathedral in 2013. The only other prime minister whose funeral the Queen has attended was that of Sir Winston Churchill in 1965.Did Prince Philip try to comfort Diana during a miserable Christmas at Sandringham, then threaten her that it “wouldn’t end well” if she left her marriage?❌ FALSEIt is true that by 1990 Sandringham Christmases were something of a strain for Diana, but she was there to be with her boys. In this episode Prince Philip visits her in her room for a comforting conversation. She tells him that if Prince Charles and the royal family can’t give her the love and security she deserves, then she will have no option but to break away officially. He advises her not to with the ominous words: “Let’s just say — I can’t see it ending well for you.” To which she responds: “I hope that isn’t a threat, sir.”In truth, the real Prince Philip did intervene to help Diana, but not until the summer of 1992, when the royal marriage became a crisis after Morton’s book. There was an exchange of letters between them. He did everything he could to find a way to keep the marriage intact. There was not a hint of a threat in any of them (I have read them).The Queen is shown in several episodes in a magnificent uniform for various Birthday Parades (Trooping the Colour). Did they get that right?❌ FALSEIn the opening sequence of The Crown the Queen is shown in the uniform of colonel-in-chief, Grenadier Guards — a grenade on the collar, a white plume in her cap and buttons in ones. She wears the Garter riband and star. It pops up in several episodes.The first trooping portrayed was June 1979, when it was the colour of the Scots Guards being trooped, so they have dressed her in the wrong uniform — it should have been a thistle on the collar, no plume, and buttons in threes. When the Scots Guards colour is trooped, she wears the dark green riband and star of the Thistle. At the 1979 trooping Prince Philip also wore the green Thistle riband. In The Crown he wears the Garter.At the 1982 trooping the Queen is shown riding along as a grenadier again, so a grenade on the collar, and buttons in ones. But this time they give her the plume of the Welsh Guards (white/green/white). It should have been a Coldstream Guards uniform, a Garter star on the collar, a red plume and buttons in twos. With their massive budget and their various advisers, the film-makers could so easily have tweaked these and got them right.In real life the Queen had five separate Guards uniforms, one for each of the five regiments of which she was colonel-in-chief — Grenadier, Coldstream, Scots, Irish and Welsh (in that order).

看完这个剧就明白了要坐稳王位你不能是个感情丰沛好奇心重的可爱人儿。

你不要是个人，你得是一个系统，一套算法。

在已有的条件下找最优解，而不是打破和革新。

女王大人之所以王位坐得久就是因为她没有多少同理心，这个特点上一季矿难已经讲过了。

当她在最后一集郑重地为被迫下台的撒彻尔带上小奖章时，很像游戏结束时那个评价星级的系统。

她厌恶地看着向她求助的戴安娜和查尔斯，拒绝任何让自己产生感情困扰的因素。

她已经超越了个人，成为一个长期运行的系统。

周围的那些家人朝臣只是女王的人间外挂，无论有没有他们，她都会代表国家运行下去。

不要用普通人的视角评判女王 。

从编剧的角度，在一些场景中，出现了巨大的失真，但是也能理解，毕竟把十年装进10集，还要体现故事的连贯性，这是超人的任务。

但是尤其是撒切尔夫人在庄园受到的待遇怎么想都太离谱了。

对话设计上也过于简单，代表是女王在白金汉宫被入侵后个撒切尔说的话，基本等于重复左派和右派价值观，等等抛开这些不谈，看故事和设计也足够有意思了，也普及了英国历史。

从人生的角度看撒切尔夫人是真正的赢家，虽然11年执政被党内逼宫，但是新保守主义今天阴魂不散（左派看来，换句话说这工党真废物），和丈夫一辈子亲密无间，真正留下了自己的遗产。

或许编剧怕变成对卡米拉的控诉，让戴安娜先说自己是“country girl”又讨厌乡村生活。

但是遇见这窝囊废，她又能怎么办呢。

反观女王，家里就没有什么婚姻幸福的人。

一天到晚好像离个婚能导致宗教改革一样。

我看这一家子每一个看重婚姻啊。

更吊诡的是，既然不在意，强迫他们结婚干什么？

好家伙，根本一家子混蛋，空食汉禄，尸位素餐，屁事不干。

还一天到晚国家挂在嘴边，没见过这么不要脸的。

更可怕的是未来的英国国王还是个变态，这想想都让人害怕。

好家伙，写着写着我就生气了，这边建议是guillotine杀头+共和制一条龙服务呢。

1. 对女王——做个好母亲，对比出女王的"remotely remote"。

2. 对菲利普亲王——当个局外人，我低头了你凭什么不肯。

3. 对查尔斯王子——满篇都是太多了。

4. 对安妮公主——唯二年轻女性，整天就被比来比去永远被压一头。

5. 对玛格丽特公主——慈善机构都要她，我又老脾气又坏。

6. 对王太后——小女孩真不懂事儿。

7. 剩下的俩王子——本来我们就没存在感了，你还要占满头条。

8. 其他住在肯辛顿宫的近枝亲戚——整天往这里带情人，真当宫殿门是酒店旋转门啊。

明明是个善良的女孩，也许天真，也许虚荣，但罪不至此。

没有一个人愿意帮她，愿意好好听她说话，愿意引导她在威尔士王妃的责任上处理婚姻的难关。

我不是在说她的悲剧性是自己导致的，只是想表达一个人在困境中找不到任何一处援手，实在可怜，记录在这里以此为鉴。

查尔斯英俊聪明、很有才华，本质只是个缺乏爱和认可的小男孩，内心敏感脆弱，却生下来便是皇室的长子，众目期盼，遇真爱而不得。

第六集他和女王一起在庭院畅谈诗意时，母亲眼里的无感，竟让我有了一丝怜惜。

不谈社会伦理道德，卡米拉是可以满足他的情感需求的，而戴妃相比起来天真烂漫、自由活泼，却同样缺乏爱与安全感、自我约束的能力，在错误的位置上没有退路可选、没办法抵挡来势汹汹的复杂与压力。

If not choose bend, only break. 不仅皇室，有时候现实社会的高墙也是让人如此。

人也只能自渡，就如撒切尔女儿问她为什么偏爱儿子时，她说得那样“如果自己能力本身捉襟见肘，别人是帮不了的”。

这个铁娘子出生在偏远小镇，退休后成为大英帝国的首相。

我不认可她的冷漠功利与现实，却佩服这个铮铮铁骨的勇气与决心。

而我们爱戴女王，就是因为她的格局与慈悲。

尽量两个女人如此巨大的冲突与不同，当撒切尔夫人被迫退位时，女王仍召见与认可她的成就。

这一季也是对那个是否适合进入皇室圈子测试结果的反讽，一个史上最高分的黛安娜终身被困，没有通过的撒切尔夫人却坚持了自我。

三十岁是而立之年，但查尔斯并没有能看清楚自己与所处的位置，因为这个测试茫然走进包办婚姻。

《倾城之恋》里有一段话是“你如果认识从前的我, 也许你会原谅现在的我。

如果能了解每个人的从前，也许什么都可以被原谅了。

一见面就觉得可憎之人，若看着他从一个小孩，如何一步步成为现在这样，或许也会心生些怜悯。

市侩俗气的，也许从小吃够了没钱的苦；冷漠的，也许受尽了冷漠。

” 从前几季追过来，会觉得他也只不过是皇室的牺牲品。

不管是王子、王妃或任何一个皇室的人也只不过都是outsider, 重要的是the crown, 即使女王本人很多时候也必须忍耐放弃以承其重。

生而为人，处处都有枷锁，或许是象征权贵的皇冠，或许是社会体制大环境，或许只是内心的贪嗔痴。

每个人都并非简简单单的好人或者坏人，对的人或者错的人，善良的人或者心怀恶意的人，温良的人或者危险的人。

接受人性多面且立体的事实。
