    Polished it off in a day a half.

    Good, but..... see below

    Think they spent way too much time on C&D. There are only a certain amount of times we could be told just how mis-matched they were.
    However Emma Corrin is a real find, in more than just her acting, far more attractive than Diana ever was.

    Because of the above it feels like the other 'characters' are pushed into the background, which after they've been the focus for the past 3 series feels alittle odd.

    Thatcher, comes off too well (too human). The woman was vile and destroyed lives, communities, industries and most of Northern England and yet any of that is hardly mentioned. In fact there are only two episodes where Thatchers brutal policies are focused on and in one of those the man, Michael Fagan, who is on the hard end of it, is shown to be a bit of a waster.
    Nothing to do with Anderson portrayal, but rather the way it is written

    Abit of a soft approach to a horrible woman

    Not really a tv show, but everyone seen the uproar about the new Sainsbury’s tv advert? Some people going mental because it’s focussed on a black family <doh>

    People saying they’re gonna boycott them because it doesn’t represent them... in other words, racist white people are upset <laugh>

    I'm on episode 3 very much enjoying it so far. They are very much focusing on Charles and Di so far which I suppose is understandable and I like they way they are protraying the impending doom with little musical touches.
    Coleman much better as the Queen in this one, too understated in the first.

    I've never had one, mate. Only ever played computer golf on an x box when I stay at my mate's in London. Sorry.
