2 AMAZING episodes in a row, i am surprised. They're touching very deeply into what it meat to be a monarch in this day and age.
Comparing to the old times, where it may seem Kings and Queens were forever at war, we consider nowadays to be "peacefull" times, but as we can see in this episode, the monarchy never rests, always adapting to themselfs.

I need to say that the Queen Mother in this final scene was very much rude, and the "gloves on" commentary was just sad to listen. But i guess that just shows as an example what Lord Altrincham said, the old must be put to rest for the new to come in.

@goncaalo the one thing that is wrong and inconsistent is the portrayal of HM The Queen mother, s1 had her as a scared little mouse and now she's a nasty old bitch, she was in fact a 'commoner' and very 'in touch' with the people, especially during the war.
