I never realize how pretty Helena bonham is... you always see her with crazy make up and hair.. but this one you can see her natural face... so beautiful!

Helena Bonham Carter played the queen mother in the kings speech and is now playing princess margaret in this series

Olivia Colman cant help but being adorable, can she?

Anyone else think of the kitten meme with the watermelon hat when they watched this?

Omg that sweet motherly moment at the end took me by surprise

[elinat]

Helena B Carter has played so many royals. Jane Grey, Anne Boleyn, the Queen Mother and now Margaret!

It took them two whole years premiere season 3. It better be good!

That hat looks like a Star Wars helmet.

[ServoDestroyer]

She has an early twentieth century American football helmet. She must have been a fan.

The queen didn’t look like a Cyberman in her hat

My feeling is that this portrayal of the Queen is not as sympathetic aa Claire Foy's portrayal..No blame on Olivia. She is just doing her job and reading her lines(brilliantly). The Queen is not going to shine as much as in previous episodes..My recollection IS that during this time period Queen Elizabeth was not that popular as she is now. So I feel this cast and these Seasons are likely going to hit the nail on the head as far as the realism of those years..
Queen Elizabeth was not the people's princess/Queen. It was NEVER her way.

The Queens hat for the investature is not accurate. The actual one was smaller and fitted the queen. It was a good look for her then. This one is too large ....

[mgg]

So the queen really wore a sliced volleyball on her head as a hat?! 😂

[Skyewalker]

Who are the people who disliked this video? Off with their heads!
