After watching I feel sorry for Charles. Imagine essentially giving up all your dreams to be a sovereign and then your mom won't step down and let you take the throne.

A woman unable to express her emotions should not be a mother IMO. He is the product of his upbringing. Her poor kids.

For anyone interested in learning more about Aberfan, this BBC piece is excellent. Lots of detail and photos. Very much worth reading.

Just finished episode 3. That was phenomenal, but brutal. I had no idea that it had happened.

I agree. They chose the best actress for Princess Margaret.

Just watched the first two episodes. It does not disappoint!

Princess Margaret with President Johnson at the White House may have been the most entertaining scenes in the entire series so far.
