This programme was by far one of the best accounts of the history of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother and King George VI that I have ever seen. The scriptwriters should be commended in placing such valuable historic accounts of this period into such a short space of time. I cannot even begin to express the great detail that the producers and cast went through to make it all the more realistic and the subsequent death of George VI and the reaction of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother was truly heartbreaking. What a remarkable theatrical production, especially in light of Her Majesty's Golden Jubilee celebrations. The programme itself rouses a great sense of National pride and I for one am proud of our monarchy for their achievements during the war years which are accurately described in this moving tribute to them. well done!
