And it is most captivating. I don’t exactly care for the Royals nor necessarily the British as a whole (we used to kill them on Christmas after all), and it certainly isn’t very historically accurate....

But it is most enthralling. Old World sets, everybody speaking properly, and the sweeping sense of it all.

The historical inaccuracies are most glaring however. Especially each time they erroneously refer to Rhodesia as “Zimbabwe”.

And the casting is utterly brilliant, the goth chick from every Tim Burton movie and Fight Club as Princess Margaret and of course... OF COURSE...

Gillian Anderson as MARGARET FALKLANDS THATCHER. What god did I please?



None of you realize how many fantasies and fetishes this settles all at once for me. And she even does the voice.

So pip pip, give it a go. I would rather it be totally about Margaret Thatcher and Princess Margaret because to me they are both the heroes of the show
