Just started it and so I'll not be reading any spoilers but it's kind of cool that Dominic West and Prince Harry were each clambering over Antarctica ten years ago together with my moniker on IMDb being Jimmy or Harry at the time (James McNulty from The Wire) and here Dominic is playing Prince Charles and Harry is a huge media sensation elsewhere.
Weird!
Anyways, time to catch up on what the boards have thrown at me
Ding Dong

I know, right! Between Michael Sheen playing Tony Blair and Helen Mirren playing QEII!
I'm wondering how they'll portray that aspect of the People's Princess.

I totally agree with you about Dominic being too good looking to play Charles! I don't buy it. I also don't buy him being so emotional. In the random clips we've seen of him in real life when he's interacting with the boys, he's always been cold and stand-offish, like at polo.
I remember in one of the earlier seasons when Diana wanted to bring William to Australia I think it was, and HMTQ very matter-of-factly enquires as to why one would want to bring one's children with them. It was done with such natural aplomb, as if intimate mothering was just so foreign. Again, not sure if that incident happened in real life, but she definitely came across as always maintaining that stiff upper lip and a bit of aloofness required to always represent the Crown first, and a person somewhere further down the line.

Exactly! That's why I made that comment about his "responsibility." I just meant, IF this is true, even a wee bit, he was quite the manipulative ass! He pushed and pushed and pushed, living vicariously through Dodi only for himself.

Elizabeth Debicki is an exceptional actress. I love her in everything she is in. The Man From Uncle was quite entertaining but it didn’t do well at the box office unfortunately. It had a great cast.
