王冠第四季

真可怕，年轻天真单纯的戴安娜就这么步入了查尔斯王子的牢笼，这个男的根本就不爱她，他只是在寻找一个合适的结婚对象，她还傻乎乎的，唉。

撒切尔和上流社会格格不入啊，但是她确实是一个很务实的人。

但是上流社会这些繁文缛节真的好无聊啊，这些游戏好无聊。

君主立宪制感觉没有必要存在，不就是面子问题吗？

卡米拉简直就像是查尔斯的妈一样，谈恋爱也要她教，谈恋爱的人选也要她选，甚至快结婚之前未婚妻都要她陪。

我天，卡米拉这个绿茶婊绝了，无时无刻不在戴安娜面前宣示主权，时不时显露一下自己和查尔斯之间的亲昵🤢查尔斯简直渣到令人发指，他和卡米拉在一起就是垃圾分类最好的结果。

天呐，老男人说话一套一套的，他也就骗骗戴安娜这种小女孩了。

🌚冷漠的女王，善妒的安妮，玻璃心的查尔斯。

全家好像就玛格丽特公主最正常啊，我以前还觉得她最讨厌诶。

完全没有感觉到安妮公主任何的魅力，在现实生活中有这么多人喜欢安妮公主，但是这部剧把她塑造的太讨厌了，没有丝毫的优点。

所有人都好像骗婚，把戴安娜骗进来之后就不管她了，总寄希望于她会屈服，然后做一个合格的行尸走肉，合格的王室成员。

可惜她到最后都没有屈服。

查尔斯是真的太恶心了，对戴安娜冷暴力，对于她的付出，只会在背后和别人一起嘲讽，自己从来不会对婚姻做任何努力，都要别人来哄，你自己都快四十岁了，还把自己当宝宝啊😅女王真的挺有人格魅力的，我不得不佩服她，她最后竟然给撒切尔颁了勋章。

明明她们之前那么相看两厌。

无为而治这么久也是一种本事。

来到第四季，真心觉得这是目前到4季以来我个人最喜欢的。

个人感官上，这一季在平静的剧情中增加了更多的戏剧冲突，通过女王、撒切尔夫人、戴妃三个女人在这一个混乱的时代因为各自的原因对立，无论是家庭、王室形象、政治立场、地位与阶级，在几乎每一个点上女王都棋逢对手，在这样平静的叙述下，王室的故事放在历史洪流中，显出了强烈的宿命悲剧感。

Netflix在这个系列中对王室和君主制一直秉持着批判的态度，这个态度在这一季到达顶峰，通过女王、撒切尔夫人、戴妃三个人的对立强烈阐述这个观点。

女王一开始是欣赏撒切尔夫人的，通过撒切尔夫人自己的视角和后期她不肯签字的那一集加深了很多两人之间的立场不同，我觉得这里是要表达两个人之间天然的地位和出身导致完全的对立，撒切尔夫人出身平民，对于贵族、上层这一类的人天然有种不信任和反抗，而女王在任经过了那么多位首相，她对于这位平民出身靠智力和打拼走到领导位置的女人有种欣赏和好奇，但也不太理解这位铁娘子本身的视野和格局。

女王这个职位是一个系统产物，她常说君主制是这个国家的灵魂，她对于不管是殖民地还是本国都有一种在血液里的保护，而君主不参政这个原则又让她本能性地疏离国民，这个职位让她必须秉持平静甚至冷酷，从第三集煤矿事故能看出，也可能她本人多多少少有一点情绪不外露的性格，也或者是君主制本身对于她的影响。

印象最深的莫过于第五集，闯入白金汉宫的底层平民和女王的这一段对话，现在看起来仍然很有意思。

女王说： Joblessness, recession, crises, war. All these things have a way of correcting themselves. Countries bounce back. People do. 她把自己始终放在一个上帝视角，这个用词 – correcting，用得很妙，潜台词是我知道现在情况很糟糕，但总会过去，总有修正的时候，一切都会过去。

女王明白自己不能带入过多的个人视角，她的眼睛需要像上帝一样姚望整个国家而不是一些个人，Correcting这个词，已经是她能想到的最极限贴近这些个人悲惨命运的用词了。

费根接着说：That's what I thought. That I'd bounce back. And then I didn't. First the work dried up, then my confidence dried up. Then…the love in my wife's eyes dried up. And then you begin to wonder, you know, where's it gone? Not just your confidence or your happiness, but your… They say that I have mental health problems now. I don't. I'm just poor." 我觉得这一段话背后的含义不用再细讲了，I’m just poor这一句话足以表达所有。

这一段台词也很有意思，费根说撒切尔夫人-"And she spends that money on an unnecessary war and declares the feel-good factor is back again. In the meantime, all the things that really make us feel good, the right to work, the right to be ill…the right to be old, the right to be fragile, be human, mmm, gone. 王冠这部剧，大多数时候讲王室个人，讲时局动荡和时代变迁，但在这一集里把国家和人民放到了台面上，这三个人处在三个不同的位置，他们共同串起了大英帝国的命运，每个人视角上的决策都没有错，或许应该说我们不应该在此处定调对错，但每个人似乎都失去了对于命运的掌控权。

这个系统就是这么运转的，小到个人、大到君主，最后对这个系统都是无奈的。

这一季的另一个人，穿插在君主和首相之间不同立场的剧情中的，是戴妃的出现，一个纯真浪漫且充满爱的角色，对婚姻无限向往。

我整体看下来觉得更多的是，戴安娜和查尔斯完全的性格上的不合适不对付，两个人在喜好、人生观就完全不在一个频道上，即便是普通家庭也一样会矛盾频频。

这样的基础下，加上王室这个系统对于两个人的要求，加速促进了这段婚姻的消亡，从算是互相有一点喜欢（本剧中我没太看出两个人在前期很相爱）到后面的两看相厌，关系完全对立只用了很短的一段时间，当然查尔斯本身爱而不得的心态我感觉也占了很大一部分原因，他天然对戴安娜这个人的耐心和爱是很少的，白月光威力太大，后来人都拼不过。

圣诞节家宴上，菲利普最后和戴妃的谈话，非常残酷的点出了事实 – 戴安娜应该收起本心，个人家庭的幸福无关重要，王室家庭的美满幸福才是他们所要提供给民众的，所以与其无望地求爱，不如看清楚她真正需要效忠的核心人物到到底是谁。

这个家庭中的每一个人都或多或少地奉献了自己，戴安娜不应该自私地索取这个家庭、这个丈夫给不了她的东西。

季末，相比之前的三季，每一季都以女王的镜头结束，这一季最后的镜头给了戴妃，预示着王室后面的故事，戴妃将会是一个很重要的角色。

关于戴妃的感想，等看完下一季再来写吧。

以下都是个人的看法，欢迎来喷第四季的一大焦点无疑是如何处理戴安娜王妃事件，我觉得编剧处理的很好，甚至有些偏戴安娜王妃。

即便戴安娜过世已经这么久了，我还是会称呼她为戴安娜王妃。

记得戴安娜王妃过世时，我还在上小学。

并不清楚她是谁，当时的英语老师是个狄更斯迷，也算是个英国通吧，当然比还是小孩子的我们要通很多。

记得有两周的英语课都在讲戴安娜王妃的生平，为其鸣不平。

其善良，魅力，优雅深深植入人心了。

当时各种阴谋论，渣男论甚嚣尘上，几乎成了主流。

当二十来年后，看到这一季，也因为生活的历练，有了一番对戴安娜王妃的际遇翻天覆地的看法。

要先说造成戴安娜王妃不幸结局的，我觉得主要是女王，舆论，查尔斯和戴安娜王妃自己。

影响占比也是女王<舆论<查尔斯<戴安娜王妃先说说女王，女王陛下估计是，把当下所有国家元首政客都算上，最值得尊重的人了。

其中有很冷血的一幕，就是澳洲之行后戴安娜王妃找女王哭诉查尔斯对自己的不忠甚至侮辱。

而女王的反应是，是不是你戴安娜有些逾制了，请允许我使用这个词。

这让我联想到上一季，女王平息蒙巴顿勋爵政变时，当面对勋爵勋爵的问题，“如果我的国家正在被政府往错误的道路上带，我们还能视而不理么”，女王的回答，堪称最大的政治智慧，“我们王室能做的就是什么都不做，等选举它的人民再把它选下去”。

让人想到先秦时代的老庄政治哲学，相比以无为求有为的老子思想，无疑女王的思想更趋近以无为求无为的庄子。

这就导致女王几乎在public事物上几乎不能有任何表态，同时女王也是一个有情绪障碍人格的人，作为一个人格统一的人，无疑对内对外的事物上的态度上都要保持相对一致。

作为人，在对人对事上不可能没有偏重，如果想一碗水端平，那就是在不触犯原则的情况下，啥都不做，少做少错，不做不错。

有一幕女王和爱丁堡公爵谈论谁是自己最爱的孩子，女王竟然想不出谁是自己最喜欢的孩子，可见无为的意识已经深入血液了。

这也导致女王认为在戴安娜王妃的事情上，没有做任何干涉，认为其应该站好自己的位置，承担自己的责任插一嘴，如果你是个有过多年婚姻经历的人，你应该会感触良多。

爱丁堡公爵和女王对婚姻的处理，堪称教科书式的，松弛有度，女王也是以无为的方式处理的，有机会可以展开来说。

所以说由于女王的伟大，什么都不做无疑给了无助的戴安娜王妃很大的打击。

再说说舆论上，当时可以说一边倒的支持戴安娜王妃，可是这与宫廷的规矩和运作是格格不入的。

可以说舆论越支持，可能越导致戴安娜王妃最终的不行，因为当时的舆论力量不比今天，还不足以完全影响宫廷的运转的制度。

作用力越大反作用力就越大，就越使戴安娜王妃远离王室。

再说说当事人之一，查尔斯吧当我看到成年查尔斯的演员时，我觉得，这个剧选角简直绝了，那种优柔寡断，多愁善感，脆弱，没勇气，智慧善良，都从演员的脸上展现出来了，几乎不用演。

如果倒回20年，最适合演查尔斯的，我觉得，可能就是老友记里的Ross了，哈哈

碰巧ross也是一生只爱一个这选角堪比马景涛饰演张无忌。

查尔斯是个渣男么？

我觉得不完全算，只能算是个优柔寡断，拎不清的人。

一生只喜欢卡米拉，说实话，到现在我都没法理解卡米拉哪儿优秀。

哈哈，可能这就是爱吧。

但限于王室的规矩，只能造就几个家庭的不幸。

就是因为他的软弱。

其实有时候，处理关系问题可能比处理国家事物更棘手。

我是觉得剧集中，应该是比较偏袒戴安娜王妃了，这也无可厚非。

毕竟死者为大，不幸的婚姻，双方都是有责任的，而且他们的结合不仅仅是为了婚姻。

最后说说戴安娜王妃，我觉得可以类比一下爱丁堡公爵，年轻时的菲利普也曾苦恼，挣扎。

埋怨自己的婚姻，自己的妻子，女王不能像对待丈夫般的对待自己。

但最后公爵明白了，也许是屈服了，认清了自己的位置，你的工作就是保护女王。

戴安娜王妃也有类似的问题，但不同的是，相比她的公公婆婆，戴安娜王妃相较之下，比查尔斯强势太多了，政治能力也强太多了，这和容易造成“逾制”的危机。

她们既是夫妇，也是君臣。

我记得女王在他们成婚前的一大担忧就是，“她太年轻了”。

年轻的不足以handle自己的位置，即使聪明如戴安娜王妃。

但另一面，她无能的丈夫似乎很能拎的清自己的位置。

为什么说戴安娜王妃自己有最大的责任造成自己的不幸？

有句老话，“道儿都是自己走的”。

活在王室，不可能你既享有荣誉和资源，还能向往自由，追求人性的美好。

正应了我最喜欢的政治人物之一，撒切尔夫人说的，“他们既不高雅，也不高贵”。

翻译成人话就是，王室就不是人能呆的，完全是一群妖怪。

其实自打戴安娜王妃走进王宫那一天，就注定了悲剧。

其实这一季的情节大家都很熟悉，毕竟离我们很近，历史课角度其实能学的不多。

我反而对这几位大人物处理家庭，儿女事物的情节，台词设计，演员表演都特别考究，真实。

再大的人物，处理家务事时也是满头的问好，没有什么神秘的。

还有就是姑娘们想要幸福的生活，尽量远离所谓上流社会，真不是人呆的，哈哈😄

可能，无为而治是君主立宪这一制度中只能充当吉祥物的君主们从小即被强行刻入大脑的四字箴言，以至于女王不仅在她漫长的王权生涯中异常坚定地坚守这一原则，而且还将它或刻意或无意地代入王权之外的生活。

于是，伊丽莎白女王可以俯身倾听擅闯她卧室的陌生工人的心声，却粗暴地无视自己的妹妹、自己的儿子、自己还是个孩子的儿媳戴安娜的挣扎与痛苦。

“起初，都会有挣扎。

慢慢的，习惯了，就好了。

”不知道，女王在说这句话时，是真的相信那抗争的人没有人性只是个机器，还是自欺欺人的骗自己也骗别人。

我想，女王可能是真的相信挣扎的最后有阳光相迎，因为，她早已磨平了自己成为了这个制度最契合最顽固的一部分。

这已不再是“欲戴其冠 必承其重”的无奈与痛苦，而是“那是一个拥抱，我感到disgusting”的吃人与凉薄。

原文链接The fourth season of The Crown stretches from May 1979, when Margaret Thatcher is elected Britain’s first female prime minister, to Christmas 1990, shortly after she has been drummed out of office. Peter Morgan, the show’s creator, tells us: “We do our very, very best to get it right, but sometimes I have to conflate [incidents] . . . You sometimes have to forsake accuracy, but you must never forsake truth.” The forsaking of the truth, the perverting and twisting of known facts, is what has always concerned me throughout the four seasons of this series. It is about real people, often put into fictional situations.The main protagonists in season four are Thatcher and the Prince and Princess of Wales, clashed against some of the other characters from season three and earlier. This creates a new problem for anyone watching it since in both these relationships there are numerous contradictions, there has been much side-taking and it is possible to slant things in a variety of different ways. Nevertheless, even having taken that into consideration, there are established truths and untruths. My conclusion on this series is that it is yet more subtly divisive than earlier seasons. Pretty much every character is dislikeable. The Queen is portrayed as glum and schoolmistressly — quite unlike the real Queen. The Queen Mother is given some truly horrible lines; Princess Margaret is downright rude; Thatcher buttoned up. Diana is the heroine of this series, largely portrayed — in my view often unfairly — as the victim of a heartless family.Episode 1Did Lord Mountbatten write Prince Charles a letter urging him to settle down, on the day he set out for his ill-fated boating expedition at Mullaghmore?❌ FALSEThe Crown shows Lord Mountbatten on holiday at Classiebawn Castle, Co Sligo, on the morning of August 27, 1979, about to set off on a fishing trip with his daughter and other members of his family. He writes Prince Charles a letter urging him to find “some sweet and innocent, well-tempered girl with no past” to settle down with, and to do his duty. In reality, he wrote no such letter that day.He did, however, write to Prince Charles on many other occasions offering him advice, and many similar letters exist. Mountbatten was by no means a good influence. He urged Prince Charles to “sow his wild oats” before finding the unsullied girl. It’s true also that Charles held Mountbatten in high esteem. Mountbatten, it should be noted, was blown up at Mullaghmore by the IRA before Lady Diana Spencer came on the scene.Episode 2Do the Queen and the royal family lay secret protocol traps for hapless visitors to test them when they come and stay at Balmoral? Did they apply this to Thatcher?❌ FALSEThe Queen and the royal family go out of their way to make their guests feel at ease at Balmoral. In real life, Mr and Mrs Thatcher arrived at the castle on Saturday, September 8, 1979, a mere three days after Lord Mountbatten’s ceremonial funeral at Westminster Abbey. No hint of that in this episode of The Crown. It has to be 1979 because clearly they have never been before. But unlike what is shown in The Crown, there was no torturing of Thatcher, no maids being superciliously rude to her, no wrong-footing in silly games, no making her ill at ease for wearing the wrong clothes or shoes, and no, Thatcher did not plead pressure of work in London and leave early.In The Crown Diana too is invited to Balmoral to be checked out and succeeds and passes the tests, which Thatcher failed. Diana’s visit was, in fact, a year later, in 1980, and at a time when the Queen was not there.Was Thatcher berated by Princess Margaret for sitting in Queen Victoria’s chair at Balmoral — a chair in which no one must sit?✅ PARTLY TRUEA scene shows Thatcher retreating from a stalking expedition and working at a desk, where Princess Margaret strays across her. She berates her for sitting in Queen Victoria’s chair. It is true that there is a chair at Balmoral that no one should sit in — a winged armchair that was indeed Queen Victoria’s. It is in one of the drawing rooms, and about ten years ago the Queen had it moved to a place where people would not easily reach it. Queen Victoria was very tiny, so had Thatcher used it at her desk her chin would have been where her elbows should have been.Episode 3Was Thatcher out of place when staying at Balmoral?✅ TRUEThatcher was not particularly interested in country pursuits, but she went to Balmoral quite happily for the traditional stay by the prime minister in the late summer of each year. After the first Balmoral visit in 1979 her husband, Denis, wrote a letter, later quoted by their daughter, Carol: “There was a house party and some of the people who’d been shooting didn’t come in until later and then there were more drinks — because they’re very generous with drink — and then we went in for dinner. In their language it’s probably very informal but nevertheless you’re on tiptoe. There’s the usual sort of after-dinner conversation over coffee and then the Queen withdraws fairly early . . .”Did Prince Philip summon Prince Charles to the hanging room at Balmoral to command him to marry Diana?❌ FALSEThe Crown suggests that Prince Philip carpeted Prince Charles after the visit Diana supposedly made there in 1979. Presumably the film-makers chose the hanging room, where they skin the wildlife, to emphasise the idea of lambs to the slaughter. No, Prince Philip did not arrange such an encounter. The truth is that Diana began to be pursued by the press in the autumn of 1980, when the media got a hint that she might be Prince Charles’s future bride. She ran the gauntlet of photographers every time she left her flat in Coleherne Court, Earls Court.Aware of this, Prince Philip wrote to Prince Charles either late in 1980 or maybe early in 1981. Jonathan Dimbleby wrote in his authorised biography of “an intervention from the Duke of Edinburgh”, which had “a powerful if not a decisive impact”. The letter warned Prince Charles that he should decide one way or the other because he was risking damaging Diana’s reputation. Prince Charles interpreted this as “an ultimatum”, which was not the original intent. Thus, in a “confused and anxious state of mind”, the prince went ahead and proposed to Diana in early February 1981.Did Prince Charles really leave for Highgrove immediately after his engagement was announced, the presumption being that he would be seeing Camilla Parker Bowles, who lived near by?❌ FALSEThe Crown depicts those famous embarrassing lines by Prince Charles in the engagement interview at Buckingham Palace: “Whatever love means.” In real life Diana laughed nervously. In The Crown she looks cross. They have Prince Charles departing immediately afterwards for Highgrove, his Gloucestershire home, by implication to see Camilla. In fact, Charles and Diana dined with the Queen Mother at Clarence House that evening, which was also where Diana was staying.In this episode of The Crown, having seen Camilla, Charles then flies off — the very next day — on his official Antipodean tour. No. The engagement was announced on February 24, 1981. He flew to New Zealand on March 29, more than a month later, then on to Australia, Venezuela and the United States.Were the royal family beastly to Diana after her engagement, accusing her of not knowing to whom she should curtsey and making a clumsy entry into their midst?❌ FALSEWe see Diana arriving at Buckingham Palace and coming into a room filled with the royal family and bungling the curtseys. Princess Margaret tears a strip off her and they appear to mock her. This is spiteful rubbish. Diana had been brought up in the shadow of Sandringham, at Park House. Her two grandmothers and four great-aunts were in the Queen Mother’s household. Her father had been equerry to the Queen on the 1953-54 Commonwealth tour. She knew precisely what to do.Was Diana really clueless about royal protocol?❌ FALSEWe see Diana being instructed in many royal customs by her grandmother, Ruth, Lady Fermoy. Lady Fermoy is portrayed as a harridan. In real life she was much gentler (at least on the surface). Not only did Diana not need instruction in that way, but the nonsense the screen version Ruth Fermoy tells her granddaughter is risible. HRHs do not curtsey to each other. There is only one Page of the Backstairs etc.Diana did get advice about her new role from the four men in Prince Charles’s private office — Edward Adeane, Francis Cornish, Michael Colborne and Oliver Everett. Later in life she liked to claim that she was given no help.Was Diana cooped up in Buckingham Palace during the months before the wedding?✅ TRUEIn The Crown we see Diana dancing alone to her Walkman, rollerskating in the state rooms and confronted with trolley-loads of flowers and letters from the public. It’s here we first see her bulimia. As soon as she was engaged, the real Diana left her flat in Earls Court, first went to Clarence House, then moved to Buckingham Palace a few days later. She lived there for about five months until her marriage in July.The palace is more of a huge office/Edwardian hotel than a cosy home, and it is understandable that she felt gloomy there. The contrast to her life with her flatmates and this new life must have been sharp. One of the pages, working there at the time and looking after her, used to go out and buy her takeaways. So the loneliness and isolation portrayed in The Crown is accurate. It is also true that Diana did not see Prince Charles much before the wedding. She called him “Sir” until the day he proposed.Did Camilla Parker Bowles and Diana have lunch while Prince Charles was away in Australia?✅ TRUEThey did lunch together, according to one of Charles and Diana’s biographers, Sally Bedell Smith. Camilla wished to help her. However, Diana interpreted the motive for the lunch as being to establish that she would be mainly in London, leaving Highgrove and Gloucestershire and hunting as Camilla’s territory.All evidence suggests that whatever he may have wished, Prince Charles was perfectly aware that his relationship with Camilla had to stop when he got engaged, and that this was understood by all concerned. As Dimbleby put it: “Now that he was engaged to be married there was, and there would be, no other woman in his life.” Diana went into St Paul’s Cathedral for her wedding with her head down, and came out with her head up. She was now his wife, and genuinely hoped she could make him happy.Did Prince Charles give Camilla a special bracelet before his and Diana’s wedding?✅ TRUEIn The Crown we see Diana coming across the designs for a bracelet that the Prince of Wales intends to give his mistress shortly before the wedding. It is marked with the initials “F&G”, which Diana told her author, Andrew Morton, she thought stood for “Fred” and “Gladys” — Charles and Camilla’s pet names for each other.In reality, in the run-up to the wedding, the four private secretaries in Prince Charles’s private office became aware that Diana was preoccupied by suspicions concerning the prince’s relationship with Camilla. A bracelet was commissioned as a way of the prince saying goodbye. It had the initials “GF”, which stood for “Girl Friday”. Diana discovered the bracelet. She confronted Prince Charles and was not mollified. Nevertheless, he felt he should hand over the bracelet in person. The Dimbleby-authorised version is that this was the only time he saw Camilla between his engagement and the day of his wedding.Diana later told Morton that photos of Camilla spewed out of her husband’s wallet on their honeymoon. She believed that his relationship with Camilla never ceased. Clearly there were acute differences between the newlyweds right from the start of the marriage. On their honeymoon on Britannia, Diana chatted up the sailors and cooks, and he remained, as he wrote at the time, “hermit-like on the verandah deck, sunk with pure joy into one of Laurens van der Post’s books . . .”Episode 4Did Prince Charles call Camilla every day during the early years of his marriage to Diana?❌ FALSEPrince Charles had virtually no contact with Camilla at all for the first five years. Yet since Andrew Parker Bowles (the husband of Camilla) was commanding officer of the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment from 1981 to 1983, then colonel commanding the Household Cavalry and Silver Stick from 1987 to 1990, there must have been a few formal encounters. Dimbleby dates the resumption of contact between them to 1986, by which time Charles’s marriage had, as he put it, “irretrievably broken down”.Did Mark Thatcher cause a national crisis when he got lost in the desert during a car race? Was he Thatcher’s favourite child?✅ TRUEThe Crown shows Mark Thatcher setting off in the Paris-Dakar car rally in January 1982. We see Thatcher in tears at her audience with the Queen telling her he has gone missing.This did happen. Mark Thatcher got stuck in the Sahara desert in Algeria for four days, and although he was not lost, nobody knew where he was. There were fears that he had been kidnapped. Thatcher was deeply upset and was seen in tears when the press asked her about the disappearance. President Mitterrand of France offered military support. Denis Thatcher was loaned a plane and after a 31-hour search young Mark was located. Denis was none too impressed with his son, not least for the casual response he made to the massive rescue operation.The Crown stresses that Mark was Thatcher’s favourite of her twins. This is confirmed by her daughter, Carol, in the biography she wrote about her father: “The rest of us could relax a little because Mark had hung an ‘occupied’ sign on the family’s ‘embarrassing relative’ slot.”Did Princess Anne resent the popularity of the Princess of Wales, and the lack of publicity she herself got in the media?❌ FALSEThis season implies that Princess Anne minded the easy publicity the Princess of Wales received just for wearing a new outfit, when she was a hard-working member of the royal family who got none. The truth is that Princess Anne did not care one iota about that. She never sought publicity or public approbation, a quality she shared with the Queen and Prince Philip. In fact, the arrival of Diana was liberating for Princess Anne. No longer was she meant to fulfil a role as a romantic, fairytale princess in the eyes of the media — she could be what she naturally was, a successful and highly executive princess.Episode 5How true was the depiction of Michael Fagan, the intruder who found his way into the Queen’s bedroom?✅ TRUEIt was a great shock to the nation to hear, in July 1982, that a man had twice scaled the walls of Buckingham Palace, and that on the second occasion security had been so lax that he had found his way into the Queen’s bedroom. Fortunately he had no malign intent, otherwise it could have been a great deal more serious.We don’t know the Queen’s version, but Fagan has described what happened, and The Crown’s events are close to a faithful representation of what happened — the two break-ins, him drinking the wine and later his confrontation with the Queen. Along with the June 1981 firing of blanks at the Queen in The Mall (an incident ignored by the makers of The Crown), this shows the Queen’s courage and adroit handling of what must have been a terrifying experience.Did Thatcher usurp the Queen’s position by taking the salute at the Falklands victory parade?✅ TRUEIn this episode Thatcher has an audience with the Queen telling her about the successful end of the Falklands conflict, then announces that she is off to attend the victory parade at Mansion House, where she, instead of the Queen, takes the salute. It did not happen exactly like that, of course.Stanley was taken back on June 14, 1982. The parade actually took place in London several months later, on October 12. However, Thatcher did attend, while the Queen did not, because she was on a tour of the South Pacific at the time. There were definitely hints in the media at the time that Thatcher was becoming presidential in her approach.Episode 6The Prince and Princess of Wales went on a tour of Australia and New Zealand in March 1983. Did Diana throw a tantrum and demand to change all the tour plans so as not to be separated from baby Prince William?❌ FALSEIt was a new idea for the Waleses to bring baby William with them on tour. Diana did not wish to be separated from her son, born the previous summer. But, no, the tour was not rearranged. In order that they could be with William, the outgoing Australian prime minister, Malcolm Fraser (who lost the election just before the visit), asked a well-known philanthropist, Gordon Darling, to lend them his sheep station, Woomargama, which was situated between Sydney and Melbourne and close to Canberra (by Australian standards). Albury airport was near by and they were able to fly everywhere, returning each night to be with the baby.They took about 27 flights during their visit. The Waleses stayed at Woomargama from March 20 to April 17 and they had an entourage of 23 British staff travelling with them, including a private chef. Those staff who stayed at Woomargama made a significant dent in Darling’s cellar.Did Prince Charles feel overshadowed by Diana on that trip?✅ PARTLY TRUEThis was one of the early examples of “Di-mania”, but since the Waleses were getting along well and the trip was considered a great success, the prince was more concerned as to how it would affect her. She was partly elated and partly exhausted. He wrote that she was a great support to him at times when he felt gloomy.There was certainly a part of him that did not like being upstaged by his wife. At this time his annoyance was matched by his pride in her, but it is true that later on he came to resent how people were only interested in her clothes, and thus did not listen to his speeches.Did Bob Hawke, the republican prime minister of Australia, refer to the Queen as “a pig in twin set and pearls in charge of a herd of prime beef cattle”?❌ FALSEIn The Crown Bob Hawke is portrayed as a rabid republican, hoping a visit by an out-of-touch and unremarkable Prince Charles would lead to the removal of the monarch as head of state of Australia. His plans are thwarted by the public’s thrall in Princess Diana.Yes, Hawke was an avowed republican, but there was no appetite for change to a republic in 1983. Hawke got on well with the Queen due to a shared interest in racing. He would never have referred to Prince Charles as a “jug-eared bonehead”, nor made jokes at a press conference: “You wouldn’t put a pig in charge of a herd of prime beef cattle — even if it did look good in a twin set and pearls.”Episode 7Did the Queen sideline Princess Margaret when Prince Edward came of age?❌ FALSEIn The Crown we see the Queen and her private secretary, Sir Martin Charteris, informing Princess Margaret that Prince Edward has come of age and she would no longer be eligible to serve as a Counsellor of State. To explain — six Counsellors of State are appointed to act on her behalf while the monarch is abroad (or incapacitated). Only two of them actually act — and they do so in tandem.While it is true that from March 1985 Princess Margaret could no longer be a Counsellor of State (which did disappoint her because she had enjoyed doing it), it made absolutely no difference to her other royal duties. This episode exaggerates this to imply that Princess Margaret’s role as a working member of the royal family had come to an end.Another point — Sir Martin retired in 1977 and became provost of Eton. But he stays on right through season four. By 1990 he would have been 77, but his actor does not age. He remains as youthful as ever — looking about 45.Were the Queen’s cousins put away in a state lunatic asylum to save the monarchy?❌ FALSEThis has no basis in truth. In this episode Princess Margaret visits a therapist due to her “sidelining” and is told of the existence of her two cousins shut away in Earlswood mental hospital. In real life she took no interest in them.Next they have the Queen Mother telling Princess Margaret that these girls had to be shut away because had it been known that they existed, it would have had serious consequences for the monarchy after the abdication. The implication is that the world may have feared that a strain of lunacy had entered the family.The reality was that these two girls and three cousins had inherited a defective gene from the Trefusis family from which all five descended through their mothers. Nerissa and Katherine were the daughters of Fenella Trefusis, who married the Queen Mother’s brother, Jock Bowes Lyon, so this had nothing to do with the Queen Mother’s bloodline.Episode 8Did Thatcher defy the Queen’s wishes for sanctions to be imposed on South Africa?✅ TRUEIn 1985 48 countries of the Commonwealth wanted to impose sanctions on South Africa, but Thatcher did not wish to do so. As head of the Commonwealth, the Queen was inclined to support the 48. In this episode they concentrate on the differences between the sovereign and the British prime minister. On this there were obvious differences.The Queen was dedicated to the Commonwealth, one of the most important missions of her reign. Thatcher was not keen on it, and preferred to focus on good relations with the United States. On this issue Thatcher saw no merit in sanctions, believing that they hardened opposition rather than reduced it. The episode ends with one of the explanatory captions they sometimes employ — Nelson Mandela ending apartheid and crediting sanctions with making that possible.Did the Queen wish the world to know that she thought Thatcher was “uncaring”, and was she therefore responsible for placing a story in The Sunday Times expressing this?❌ FALSEHere they paint the Queen’s press secretary, Michael Shea, as an honourable man who would never betray the Queen or in any way impugn her political impartiality. In this episode, set in July 1986, the Queen tells Shea that just for once she wants her views known. Therefore, unwillingly apparently, he talks to journalists and the story breaks in The Sunday Times with the (real) headline. “Queen Dismayed by ‘Uncaring’ Thatcher”. The ensuing furore is such that Sir Martin Charteris (who in real life had long retired, remember) sacrifices Shea, telling him to resign and take the blame because a scalp is needed to divert the media from the Queen.The reverse was the case. Shea took it upon himself to talk to The Sunday Times. He then denied that he had done so, and when finally forced to own up, stated that he had been misrepresented. The Palace got rid of him by securing him a job with Hanson plc. What Shea had done was to relay his personal dislike of Thatcher’s policies to the world.The story of Shea has been exposed by many distinguished authors, not least Charles Moore in his authorised biography of Margaret Thatcher.Episode 9Was Prince Charles irritated by Diana’s surprise dance with Wayne Sleep at Covent Garden in 1985, which she intended as his 37th birthday gift?✅ TRUEThere was a private gala at Covent Garden in December 1985 (for some reason they say November, and no it wasn’t for his birthday) and at a certain point Diana slipped away and suddenly appeared on stage with Wayne Sleep and danced to Billy Joel’s Uptown Girl. This was meant to be a gift to her husband, but he took it amiss (an incident omitted from Dimbleby’s authorised biography). Sleep got the impression that Prince Charles was somewhat put out, instead of touched. In this episode Charles berates Diana with some ferocity.Did the tragic avalanche in Klosters in 1988 in which Hugh Lindsay was killed impact on the Waleses’ marriage to the point that Charles decided that he had to get out of it while Diana was determined that it should continue?❌ FALSEOn a holiday in Klosters, Prince Charles, Hugh Lindsay (an equerry to the Queen and his friend), a respected guide and Patty Palmer-Tomkinson went skiing off-piste. They encountered an avalanche in which Major Lindsay lost his life. According to this episode, the tragedy inspires Prince Charles to the conclusion that he wants to get out of his marriage and unite with Camilla, even though she is still married. Meanwhile, Diana declares that Charles’s near death makes her realise how much she would have missed him, so she declares that she wants to make it work.There is mention of the affair she had with James Hewitt and they suggest that she has dropped him. In fact, it wasn’t until 1992 that Prince Charles considered separation. And in real life the Princess of Wales blamed Prince Charles for this accident by taking Lindsay off-piste. She refused ever to return to Klosters and was dismayed that he did.Were Charles and Camilla meeting regularly at Highgrove by 1988?✅ TRUEAccording to the evidence, Charles and Camilla were seeing each other again by 1986. This series takes the Diana line that Charles and Camilla were in touch all the way through the marriage. Viewers should be cautious to accept this without question. They will see an angry Prince Charles, sometimes yelling at his wife, aggressive and demeaning to her. What is largely omitted is any account of Diana’s well-documented distressing behaviour, including tantrums and insecurities. The Crown clearly presents a one-sided portrait of the marriage.Were there several meetings between the Queen and the Waleses to discuss the crumbling marriage?❌ FALSEVarious meetings are shown in which the Queen discusses the predicament in which the Waleses found themselves and tells them to pull themselves together. In reality these did not take place. Until Prince Charles realised that Diana had been directly involved in the publication of Morton’s book, Diana – Her True Story, in the summer of 1992, he maintained a façade, and the hope that there was a way for the marriage to continue in some way or another.The Dimbleby line on this was that the royal family were aware of “the princess’s distress”, but did not wish to interfere. So there was no summit meeting with the Queen, Prince Philip and the Waleses until June 1992.Episode 10Did Thatcher try to get the Queen to dissolve parliament to save her skin at the time of the leadership crisis in 1990?❌ FALSEOf course Thatcher did no such thing. It is well known that when Geoffrey Howe resigned and delivered his devastating resignation piece (faithfully shown by The Crown), Thatcher faced a challenge to her leadership from Michael Heseltine. The outfall for that is well shown — the meetings with ministers, her gradual realisation that she must go, but then they introduce this nonsense.In The Crown they have her telling Denis that she has one card up her sleeve. So she goes to see the Queen and asks her to dissolve parliament and therefore call a general election. Theoretically she could have done that, and technically the Queen could refuse. But it never happened, nor would it have done.Was the Queen angry when Thatcher was ousted by her ministers in 1990?✅ TRUEThere is a genuinely moving scene in The Crown in which the Queen summons Thatcher to see her, and she presents her with the Order of Merit. I remember being told at the time that the Queen was not pleased by the way they got rid of Thatcher. So the line “I was shocked by the way in which you were forced to leave office” is spot-on. People have persisted in thinking the Queen and Thatcher did not get on. The Order of Merit is in her personal gift, as is clearly explained here, and her gift of it is evidence of her respect for her first female prime minister. Thatcher was surprised and delighted to be offered it.If further evidence is required, the Queen appointed her a Lady Companion of the Order of the Garter in 1995 — again her personal gift. She attended her 70th and 80th birthday parties and was present at her funeral in St Paul’s Cathedral in 2013. The only other prime minister whose funeral the Queen has attended was that of Sir Winston Churchill in 1965.Did Prince Philip try to comfort Diana during a miserable Christmas at Sandringham, then threaten her that it “wouldn’t end well” if she left her marriage?❌ FALSEIt is true that by 1990 Sandringham Christmases were something of a strain for Diana, but she was there to be with her boys. In this episode Prince Philip visits her in her room for a comforting conversation. She tells him that if Prince Charles and the royal family can’t give her the love and security she deserves, then she will have no option but to break away officially. He advises her not to with the ominous words: “Let’s just say — I can’t see it ending well for you.” To which she responds: “I hope that isn’t a threat, sir.”In truth, the real Prince Philip did intervene to help Diana, but not until the summer of 1992, when the royal marriage became a crisis after Morton’s book. There was an exchange of letters between them. He did everything he could to find a way to keep the marriage intact. There was not a hint of a threat in any of them (I have read them).The Queen is shown in several episodes in a magnificent uniform for various Birthday Parades (Trooping the Colour). Did they get that right?❌ FALSEIn the opening sequence of The Crown the Queen is shown in the uniform of colonel-in-chief, Grenadier Guards — a grenade on the collar, a white plume in her cap and buttons in ones. She wears the Garter riband and star. It pops up in several episodes.The first trooping portrayed was June 1979, when it was the colour of the Scots Guards being trooped, so they have dressed her in the wrong uniform — it should have been a thistle on the collar, no plume, and buttons in threes. When the Scots Guards colour is trooped, she wears the dark green riband and star of the Thistle. At the 1979 trooping Prince Philip also wore the green Thistle riband. In The Crown he wears the Garter.At the 1982 trooping the Queen is shown riding along as a grenadier again, so a grenade on the collar, and buttons in ones. But this time they give her the plume of the Welsh Guards (white/green/white). It should have been a Coldstream Guards uniform, a Garter star on the collar, a red plume and buttons in twos. With their massive budget and their various advisers, the film-makers could so easily have tweaked these and got them right.In real life the Queen had five separate Guards uniforms, one for each of the five regiments of which she was colonel-in-chief — Grenadier, Coldstream, Scots, Irish and Welsh (in that order).

魔幻的2020年，很多年尾期盼的电视节目都取消了。

没有了我最爱的《幸存者》系列，没办法看Lord Sugar用他的胖手指指着对面的年轻人大喊：You're fired. 还真是不习惯。

还好，有《王冠》的归来。

这一季因为有了英伦玫瑰戴安娜王妃的出场，而显得新鲜且八卦气息十足。

但看完以后，发现编剧和导演都无以伦比地克制，对女王和她的渣男儿子的刻画，虽然偏负面，但感情这件事，真的没有道理可言，电视剧也就点到为止，16年的疲惫婚姻，属于戴安娜和查尔斯，其中酸楚，两个人想必比谁都体会的深刻。

除了人民的王妃和女王，这一季还有另外一个女人格外吸睛，她就是被邓爷爷在人民大会堂啐的一口痰吓得不轻的”铁娘子“撒切尔夫人。

铁娘子的政治战绩之辉煌，无需多说。

毕竟是能让女王都忌惮三分的女人啊。

可是铁娘子始终把自己”女人“身份摆在"首相”之前，这也是为啥，她每天去上班前，要给老公做好早餐；儿子在沙漠里失踪了，她不惜动用自己的政治影响力，全世界找儿子；更让现代女性不解的“女性作为”是，有着一对儿女双胞胎的铁娘子毫不掩饰地说，"我的儿子是我最爱的孩子“（潜台词是：女儿，我不怎么看重），这话，让女王震惊地掉下巴。

看到这一集时，我也被吓了一跳：原来英国这个如此倡导民主自由的国家，每个家庭也都有一个公开的秘密——一个多子家庭里，父母对孩子们的爱，始终是有轻有重的，根本不可能做到”一碗水端平“。

我还记得和我的英国婆婆第一次吃饭聊天，问她得第一个问题是，你的三个孩子里，你最爱哪一个？

婆婆当时一脸诧异，愣了好半天，搞得我还以为是自己英文太差，她没听懂我的问题。

”三个我都爱，没有哪一个是最爱的。

“她最后用很坚定的语气回答我。

明年是我和家属认识的第十年。

这些年的相处，让我逐渐对婆婆更加了解，很自然地也找到了当初这个问题的答案——她显然有最爱，她当时撒谎了。

全天下的父母其实都一样，在很多关键问题上，是不分国籍的。

比如婚礼谁出钱？

买房谁付首付？

是不是要给子女提点意见，提点一下他们未来的另一半是否靠谱？

我的公公婆婆给大儿子出资筹办了婚礼，给小女儿前前后后在英国和小岛都买了房子，明年的婚礼也提前支付了4万英镑订酒席和蜜月。

而给我的家属，他们的middle son只有一味的精神鼓励，原因是一来我们没有办婚礼，二来我们俩非常独立，不像小女儿从小事学渣，现在只是一名幼儿教师，我们自己也已经解决了买房子的问题。

初次听到这些原因，我的眼珠子直接翻到了后脑勺。

什么鬼？

因为不会哭，所以没奶吃？

回头看我的父母，他们境遇也如出一辙。

我的姥爷和姥姥有多处房产，但他们并没有平均分配给四个子女，而是全部留给了我的舅舅。

原因几乎完美复制我的公婆：舅舅是家里唯一的男丁，舅舅早年买断工龄，没有啥收入，我的姨妈们和我妈都能自立自强，买车买房。

后来看到网上有人把这种父母叫”端水大师“，大意是说，父母对子女的爱是不可能相等的，他们会一个劲儿补贴那个相对”混得不太好”的孩子，试图让所有的孩子们，在生活水准上，不至于相差太大。

好嘛，父母们都成了大师，没有人考虑过，那个自己的水被分出去的孩子？

他们看起来活蹦乱跳，健康宝宝，并不代表他们不缺水啊。

也许，这些孩子因为这份对等的关爱和资源，可以焕发出更多的潜能，做出另一番成就，也未曾可知。

撒切尔夫人的政治手腕异常强硬，她可以眼睛都不眨地和阿根廷宣战，可以和邓公在海港城问题上频频胡璇。

但在母亲的角色扮演上，实在不是好的范例。

就因为她一直带着骄傲的口吻，到处宣扬自己如何偏爱儿子，女儿就逐渐被逼到角落，不被灯光照耀到。

在撒切尔夫人的葬礼上，儿子，女儿，都没有到场，在这件事上，两人都端的很平。

(这是我没考察瞎编的，儿子女儿都去了国家策划的葬礼，感谢豆友指正）我一直在想，让父母不当“端水大师”，真的很难吧？

眼睁睁的看着一个孩子日子过得越发如意，另一个却灰头土脸，都是自己的血肉，怎么可能不帮忙？

那个过得好的，应该也不需要帮助，毕竟，他已经那么强了。

但是，我觉得父母把这件事想简单了。

这种端平水的行为，不仅仅是物质资源的调配，它在孩子眼里看起来是爱的偏颇。

无论子女年龄有多大，他们始终都是子女，都对父母的爱和重视有一种渴望和期待。

我的老公从来没抱怨过父母没有给他任何帮助，还时常感恩说他们付了大学学费，严格要求他坚持阅读，培养兴趣爱好，让自己免遭“成为废物”一劫。

但他也会开玩笑说自己是万年“老二”（middle son)，从小穿得衣服都是哥哥的二手货，长大了还要疼小妹妹，他从来不觉得自己值得拥有最好的东西。

老公的低欲望，倒是给我省了不少钞票，助力我早日实现财务自由。

但我总是很心疼他，毕竟，我每次遇上啥闹心的大事，都特别有底气的说，没事，有我爸妈呢！

因为我知道，我想要办婚礼的话，我爸妈一定全价报销，我要想伸手要首付，老人家也一定不咋眼睛，把家底掏空来支持我。

我老公的心里就缺了这么一块rock(基石），所以对人情冷暖，好像总是一副很寡淡的态度。

《王冠》里把“你最爱的孩子是谁？

”的问题也抛给了女王，菲利普亲王直言说自己最爱安妮公主，老婆你就别装了，你难道不知道你最爱的孩子是谁吗？

女王分别和四个孩子会面，来求证自己的答案，可她却发现，每个孩子都已经长成了她不认识的样子。

皇室专家们一致认为，女王最爱的孩子是安德鲁王子。

现如今，这位接近百岁的老人，看到自己最爱的孩子和与涉嫌性侵少女且猝死在狱中的亿万富豪有着扯不清、道不明的关系，估计心里也是打翻的五味瓶——不是滋味。

谁是你最爱的孩子？

这个问题的答案，最好藏在心底，如果实在藏不住，又不愿意当端水大师，还是生一个的好。

这个剧评，并不能单纯视为是第四季的评论，更多是追剧三年的一些个人感想。

关于戴安娜，虽然我在小时候就听过这位王妃的芳名，但真正对她有了解的兴趣是在知道《王冠》要拍摄与她有关的内容后，我对这位王妃的感受一直不算太好，虽然网络上对她的称赞比比皆是，但之前认为她并不十分美貌，所以不大在意“英伦玫瑰”这种美称，至于其悲剧的婚姻，无论是了解之前还是之后，始终认为“可怜”“受害者”这种理由只能让人同情，远远不能让人喜爱。

目前我对戴安娜王妃的态度依然是“中立”，既不褒扬或崇拜，也不去批评。

首先是她的原生家庭，“平民王妃”这种谣言应该早就被打碎，斯宾塞百年贵族不论如何与“灰姑娘”“麻雀”都不沾边，“平民王妃”的说法可能源于“人民的王妃”，后者五字可谓真知著见，戴安娜的确极受英国人民爱戴，而且这种爱戴的理由并不肤浅，前者是不知所云，“灰姑娘”可以解释她身为一个土气的普通lady，突然被放到世界舞台上倍受瞩目，但是英国本身从未实行过贵庶婚姻，也不存在“prince”必须娶“princess”这种规则，贵庶婚姻广泛实施于德国一带的王室，英国是真的存在“平民百姓”做王后这种旧例的，虽然很长时间里一直是王子公主通婚为主流，但与本国贵族结婚也不存在任何王室婚姻规则问题。

戴安娜婚姻的悲剧，我认为她的父母（原生家庭）要对此负一定责任。

不是一方出轨就叫悲剧，她婚姻很多不幸是因为她没有很正确地面对这个问题，她在一开始选择婚姻时就知道卡米拉的存在（当然她的不幸不仅是卡米拉代表的夫妻情感关系问题），但她没有更审慎地去面对。

之后她也一直用自虐、逃避来解决问题。

她的父母不仅没有示范、教她如何处理与看待个人情感，而是在她年仅18岁，思虑不成熟却又要面对王室婚姻的时候，也没有给予过有用的关怀或帮助，或者是关心她的感情问题，劝慰她更理智地对待，反而一直是她的朋友在她周围，在影片中她的两位grandma，也没有任何正面引导（现实详见后）。

戴安娜选择与查尔斯结婚（明知双方了解与感情不够多且对方另有情人），本身就是不明智的，但是明知她只有18岁，却毫不为她未来生活作着想，只想让她成为王妃，这种明明知道不少成人规则却让她往火坑里跳的人物也颇可憎。

王室一方，是认为查尔斯年届三十，该娶妻生子，以催婚的态度，抓住一位资质合格的女士，自然希望查尔斯与此女缔结婚姻，不过是与现代大多数儿女已达婚龄的家长一样，单方面热情满满，无关这女士内心如何，未来何方，当太子妃还有不愿的事吗？

儿子虽有蚊子血，可以一般心境揣度，一个不好看的已婚妇女在心头又能鲜艳几年，威尔士亲王拈花惹草也是正常事件，身为女人本就该忍则忍，作为储妃更该大局为先。

“喜欢不喜欢”，在普通家庭考虑婚配时仿佛也在物质条件之后，何况王室，再者查尔斯对戴安娜也并不完全不爱，戴安娜漂亮性格好，迟早查尔斯回心转意会当合格丈夫好男人，只要一切皆控制有序，就是稳定家庭。

一个当今不少豪门还奉行的婚姻模式，放到80年代的英王室，也不算十分丑恶用心，只是完全走错方向，“不明智”。

戴安娜的原生家庭生母戴安娜生母讳弗朗西斯•露丝，弗朗西斯是第四代弗莫伊男爵莫里斯•罗什之女，莫里斯是乔治六世的朋友，还是第三代弗莫伊男爵詹姆斯与“百万美元公主”，弗朗西斯·埃伦（与《纯真年代》女主Ellen同名）·沃克之子。

美国的这位弗朗西斯小姐，其家庭在纽约地位十分之高，是阿斯特夫人400位有幸参加舞厅盛宴的宾客之一（阿斯特夫人之子是瑞吉酒店创始人，阿斯特家族另一成员威廉创建了华尔道夫），乃真正上流名媛，家族朋友有范德比尔特。

她与詹姆斯成婚11年，生下两女两子，之后离婚（又是一场婚姻不幸），当时男方尚未袭爵。

离婚8年后，詹姆斯成为了国会议员，又起诉妻子要求要回女儿的抚养权，理由是她触犯了“人身保护令”，剥夺了女儿的自由，而弗朗西斯的律师是美国前国务卿托马斯·F·贝亚德，最终以庭外和解收场。

这场闹剧14年后，弗朗西斯与一匈牙利裔骑手再婚，2年后又起诉离婚，理由是如果二人还在一起，她父亲富兰克林·H·沃克就要剥夺她的财产继承权。

这次离婚4年后【1911】，她父亲去世，为她与她的孩子、她的姊妹留下了近1500万美元的遗产，并声明不能分给前女婿詹姆斯·伯克·罗什。

至于弗朗西斯•露丝，她的母亲，露丝·西尔维娅·罗什，片中出现过，是王太后的女官，有大英帝国勋章、维多利亚女王勋章。

据说，她劝说过戴安娜不要与查尔斯结婚，她说：“亲爱的，你必须明白，他们的幽默感和生活方式是不同的，我认为这不适合你。

”弗朗西斯•露丝本人，从结婚照片看，她是位颇秀丽的美人，戴安娜容貌上遗传她更多，她与丈夫约翰的婚姻是不幸福的，她在戴妃六岁时离开了丈夫，与彼得·尚德·卡德私奔，两人在两年后结婚。

关于孩子的抚养权，打过非常激烈的官司，有趣的是，弗朗西斯的母亲即上文提到的露丝夫人，成了关键的一点，露丝坚信婚姻是神圣的，所以她认为弗朗西斯出轨与另一个男人在一起不可原谅，她出庭作证反对她女儿，于是约翰才能成功保留戴安娜的监护权。

她再婚后一直在苏格兰低调地生活，然而1988年六月，她又与第二任丈夫彼得分居，因为他为了另一个年轻女人抛弃了她。

96年，又因醉驾被禁开车。

而她与戴妃关系，在戴安娜生前最后的时候，也并不融洽。

她孤独终老，晚年投身天主教慈善事业，2004年去世。

继母戴安娜继母讳瑞妮·麦考代尔，瑞妮是芭芭拉·卡特兰女士与亚历山大·麦考代尔的独女。

其母芭芭拉是20世纪世界上最畅销的作家之一，有大英帝国勋章与圣约翰勋章，她创作的浪漫主义小说总销量达7.5亿册（一说20亿），是伦敦的超级名流，以身穿粉红雪纺长袍、戴金色假发与羽毛帽、浓妆加身为常见造型。

芭芭拉出身中产阶级，她的长弟罗纳德·卡特兰少校是国会议员。

她出生不久后家庭财政迅速恶化，芭芭拉后来将这次经济衰退归因于她的祖父詹姆斯·卡特兰的自杀，她说，詹姆斯是一名金融家，在破产后开枪自杀。

然而，根据遗嘱认证登记处的记录，她的祖父是开黄铜铸造厂的，并且留下了92000英镑的遗产。

随后不久，她的父亲在第一次世界大战中死去，芭芭拉的母亲在伦敦开了一家干货店，以维持生计，不幸的是，除芭芭拉之外，她的母亲与两个兄弟都死于1940年的二战。

她26岁时与亚历山大上尉成婚，在女儿瑞妮童年时两人就离了婚，并改嫁亚历山大的堂弟休·麦考代尔，生有两子。

芭芭拉后来曾扬言，瑞妮的生父其实是第五代萨瑟兰公爵乔治·萨瑟兰或女王叔父肯特公爵乔治王子。

芭芭拉与蒙巴顿勋爵有着长期的友谊，当蒙巴顿1979年死去时，她说这是“我一生中最大的悲伤”。

蒙巴顿支持芭芭拉的各种慈善事业，甚至帮助她写了一本书《Love at the Helm》，提供了海军和历史背景资料。

蒙巴顿遇刺后，查尔斯王子成立了蒙巴顿纪念信托基金会，这本书1980年发行时，其收益的被捐给了基金会。

据说戴安娜喜欢阅读芭芭拉的小说，当然戴安娜并没有邀请芭芭拉参加她与威尔士亲王的婚礼。

芭芭拉后来公开批评戴安娜的离婚，但1997年戴安娜在巴黎车祸前不久，她与芭芭拉关系有好转。

瑞妮人生也十分戏剧性，她容貌美丽，18岁初次登上伦敦社交舞台，就被评为年度最优秀的名门闺秀，并与达特茅斯伯爵继承人订婚，生有四个孩子，婚后对政治产生了浓厚兴趣。

23岁时，她成为威斯敏斯特市议会中最年轻的保守党议员，她在当地政府工作了17年。

她参加了威斯敏斯特市的城市规划、公园和人事委员会，然后代表里士满进入大伦敦议会。

在这个职位上，她对环境规划和古建筑特别感兴趣。

她担任了斯德哥尔摩联合国人类环境会议政府工作组的主席。

1973年，她与她的同事约翰·斯宾塞有了婚外情，她与丈夫达特茅斯伯爵因此于1976年离婚，并于同年与约翰再婚。

她与继子女们关系很差，她重新装修家族宅邸，为了能大量使用新的镀金和墙纸，出售了大量艺术品与土地，斯宾塞伯爵虽然完全赞同妻子，但戴安娜的弟弟、爵位继承人查尔斯则讽刺继母品味“如摩纳哥五星级酒店的婚礼蛋糕般庸俗”。

戴安娜父亲于1992年去世，两天后，她的继子、新任斯宾塞伯爵查尔斯把瑞妮赶出了庄园。

瑞妮不允许拿走任何一件物品，除非她能证明这件物品是属于她的，而且她的所有员工都在未经通知的情况下被解雇。

戴安娜王妃亲自在瑞妮的卧室里站岗，看着女仆保琳·肖把伯爵夫人宽大的衣服放进四个路易威登的手提箱里。

当戴安娜王妃发现手提箱上有浮雕的大写字母“S”时，她决定这些手提箱也属于斯宾塞家族，在戴安娜的指示下，女佣匆忙打开名牌衣柜，把衣服装进黑色垃圾袋。

查尔斯把所有的袋子都踢下了楼梯。

瑞妮得到了400万英镑的遗产和伦敦梅菲尔的一栋联排别墅。

1993年瑞妮又与一位法国让·弗朗索瓦·德·尚布伦伯爵（拉法耶特侯爵后裔，与美国罗斯福家族有亲缘关系）于伦敦成婚，戴安娜和她的兄弟姐妹没有出席婚礼。

1995年，瑞妮又与这位尚布伦伯爵离婚，恢复她以前的姓氏，即斯宾塞伯爵夫人。

戴安娜去世之前，她与继母瑞妮和解。

说了这么多，就是想介绍一下戴安娜的家庭，从她的父母及祖辈的抓马婚姻可以看出，她生长环境（不是物质）是不怎么理想的。

从【电视内容】说一下查尔斯与戴安娜在本片中的婚姻非常赞同高赞剧评，这一场沸沸扬扬的事件不是简单的什么出轨、偷腥可以解释。

准确来说，是由于三人（查戴卡）感情观、人格与王室预计（或他们本人预计）的有了较大出入，而每个人又不能控制别人，随着感情与心态的变化，爆发是必然的。

先谈一下电视剧是如何描绘这几个人物的人格与感情的，从这些内心因素上事件的推动。

卡米拉的性格，是非常清楚自己要干什么的性格，而戴安娜与查尔斯，就是不清楚自己该怎么办的那类人。

前者人物有女王、撒切尔夫人，共同点是他们知道自己想要什么、该怎么做，并且懂得牺牲、懂得珍惜，这类人不管是善是恶，都不会让自己饱含悔恨、失控露丑，他们一般会接受现实，如果不接受，就会以自己的方式去坚定地改变，他们内心有种强烈的力量，不怎么受环境因素影响。

而戴安娜、查尔斯，更像是摇摆不定的钟，这类人情感充沛，但是却没有强大的毅力去扶持感情，代表人物还有前几季的菲利普与玛格丽特，他们或是不满现状，却不去克服内心的不适或寻求合理的改变；或心有真爱，却困于王室条例、内心的摇摆，最终草草结婚，在婚姻的梦魇中搏斗嚎叫，伤心伤身依然痛苦破裂。

他们不能接受现实，所以无法尽善尽美地完成职责；当出现可以改变的拐点时，又因为内心的懦弱，不愿付出高昂的代价，所以失去更多，最后抱怨他人。

他们以为自己搏斗的对象是深宫王权，却不知道其实对手是自己。

他们有自己想干的事，但却没能干成；他们明明不愿接受不幸的未来，却在别人的推动下亦步亦趋。

可幸的是菲利普与玛格丽特步入中晚年，逐渐与自己和解，戴安娜最后也终于作出了忠于自己的选择去离婚撕破脸。

戴安娜的痛苦很多情况下是来源于她无法适应新生活，不知道自己的定位在哪里，而她的丈夫不仅没有给她帮助，反而背叛了她，而且对她冷暴力。

她后来的蜕变是因为他意识到了自己真正的价值在哪里，她可以成为比她丈夫更耀眼的明珠，获得民众的爱，而不是去做深宫怨妇。

这场婚姻的问题在哪里，可以说太多了，戴安娜——关于她选择与查尔斯结婚，有人说她是被骗了，她以为会有最美的爱情，但却遇上了渣男；有人说她是虚荣又愚蠢。

我个人看法是：戴安娜是不爱（至少不是传统意义上真正的爱情）查尔斯的，当然不是说她不在乎不喜欢丈夫，但是她对查尔斯的感情，更多是出于“这是我丈夫”的爱、她是他的妻子，她对他怀着赤诚的情感，只要当时查尔斯回归家庭对她珍视尊重又帮她融入生活环境，她对他的情感一定会满溢出来并且忠贞不二，但现实中的走向注定最终这原本感情基础就差的婚姻走向灭亡与崩塌。

这肯定不会是两个成人之间那种浪漫相知的热烈情爱。

戴安娜生活于一个那样的家庭，她当时只是个18岁的、受教育程度不高的女性，她估计连什么是“爱”都不清楚。

她肯与一个三十岁相貌有点猥琐的男人（电视剧中的只是个驼背又别扭的年青招风耳帅哥）约会，除了是因为这男人是威尔士亲王之外不做他想。

电视剧中，演的很清楚，不管是谁开始搭讪（这不重要，搭讪不等于勾引），重点是戴安娜她对自己有可能成为王妃这一走向与事实是无比激动的，但是这种激动也不能简单说就是虚荣，倒不如说是无知，或者说，就是因为不够“虚荣”，才有了后来的悲剧。

因为她想象中的、渴望的，是成为那种童话故事里的“王妃”，不是现实中王权加冕的。

还记得她室友说的离别之言吗？

富丽堂皇的王宫、成群的仆人、华丽的衣裙、恣意鲜妍、英俊深情的王子，这是故事里的王妃，不是现实中的冰冷宫廷、独自一人冷清度日、各种繁文缛节与规矩、根本见不到的丈夫、各种要求与公务。

她嫁一个人却不知道自己要面对的究竟是什么，如梦似幻之下全是冰冷甜食的呕吐物。

最后说一下演员。

最初选角宣布“素人”艾玛·科林时，我对她是比较期待的，但是剧照曝光后对她的期待一下跌入谷底，戴妃肩宽脖子长，头身比十分完美，艾玛脖子短又前倾，仪态非常糟，完全不符戴妃时尚icon的设定，而且脸较短，显得更加娇小，面部上也不够深邃，很难体现戴安娜高贵优美的外表所带来影响力。

还有，戴安娜身前影像资料说明了她本人魅力是多么强大，声音温柔得像想象中的公主，总是给人善良真诚的优雅气息，这种气息不是玛丽苏式的完美，给人高高在上之感，而是让你感到她离你如此之近，就像一股春风，她很亲民，但却不给人庸俗平淡的感觉，一切充满爱心的举止都如此自然而不委顿矫作，所以受人喜爱决不是单纯的容貌美丽，见过她真人的人真的会臣服在她的魅力下。

《王冠》前几季，克莱尔·芙伊的表演与科林都出现了一样的问题，从剧本上看表演没有什么差错，演员演技层次细腻，角色前后统一，但是在模仿真实人物时，都会露出一种与本尊不相似的怯、惊、委缩，尤其是表现角色内心受到剧大震动十分脆弱时，都会四肢僵硬委缩，而且非常明显。

本尊应该更加舒展而内敛。

再说下女王，女王真实长相偏鹅蛋脸，下脸略多，轮廓较流畅，上庭略短下庭较长，眼睛超大，鹰钩鼻超挺，正面大鼻子，但不露鼻孔，眼间距短，脸长宽正好。

但是奥莉维娅太阳穴太凹陷了，又颧弓突出，就有些苦、土气，她的鼻子又短又塌又漏鼻孔，而且眼间距宽，与本尊长相相差太多，显得呆滞、凶、苦闷，所以她的表演完全没问题，但她做女王同款动作，脸的观感就有了差别，女王中年后眼角与嘴角都有些向下，五官又锋利，显得就有点冷漠，但奥莉维娅的表情就像是生气得要命要发火。

最后，全季最打动人的是那位费根油漆工，果然底层人挣扎于温饱，思念着子女，被政府齿轮历史长河辗压的绝望，依然迸发出的一点国民亮光，还是胜却闲得没事瞎搞的王室感情戏无数。

“You have no enemies, you say? Alas, my friend, the boast is poor. He who has mingled in the fray of duty that the brave endure, must have made foes. If you have none, small is the work that you have done. You’ve hit no traitor on the hip. You’ve dashed no cup from perjured lip. You’ve never turned the wrong to right. You’ve been a coward in the fight.” — Charles Mackay

E1美帝至今选不出一位女总统，真差劲。

作为世界上为数不多的皇室，他们的休闲活动不怎么有意思。

迪基、菲利普、查尔斯三人之间的关系挺不寻常。

我一直以为戴安娜王妃是平民。

e2戴安娜是个很有野心的人。

英国真是苦寒之地，下大雨天全家人出门猎杀从隔壁领地跑过来的麋鹿。

首相才是国家最有权力的人，他们对待首相挺失礼。

去打猎该穿什么衣服，大英帝国的首相这样的吗，别说是国家元首，就是我们公司的领导出行，秘书都会把这些事情办得妥妥贴贴，避免尴尬情景，女王的秘书和首相的秘书就不能对一下吗。

这该死的君主立宪制。

首相金句真多啊，“工作就是我们的娱乐”、“休息从来不会让我快乐”。

女王任上那么多位首相，从本剧所呈现的情况来看，唯有撒切尔能比肩丘吉尔。

工人阶级出身的知识分子当然讨厌这些贵族做派以及愚昧习俗。

聪明朴实的女孩在打猎中很快得到了公公婆婆的欢心。

在挂尸房和儿子作择偶谈话，谁会这样干啊。

整个剧对查尔斯婚恋故事的描绘基调是沉重的。

e3从订婚开始就已貌合神离，原来卡米拉的角色如此重要。

制度与制度之间互有胜负，如果是在金将军或者普大大家里，可能没有那么多规矩，但会活在恐惧中，而在女王家里，不必担心哪天会被炮决，但确实有非常多的规矩。

种种迹象都在指向：快跑！

但小女孩又懂得什么呢，成为皇后多么吸引人。

这有什么意思呢，大家都累。

烟花下的谈话，不是妈妈与即将成婚的儿子的谈话，而是君主与继承人的谈话。

本集名称是童话，而王子公主在结婚后并没有从此幸福快乐地生活下去。

e4菲利普这角色总是很有意思，当然也可能演员让他增色不少。

女王心血来潮想知道自己最喜欢四个孩子中的哪一个，突然要享受一点亲子时光，然后发现儿女们过得都不开心。

女王是个挺传统的女士，生了一堆孩子，通过啥都不做、忍耐来度过不快乐的时光。

撒切尔是在比较差的状态下履职，把国家引向一场战争，有负国家。

到这一集不太喜欢撒切尔了，不够进步。

女王的几个孩子都是中人之资而且娇生惯养，还好皇室只是国家吉祥物。

首相是因对阿根廷的强硬立场获得铁娘子的称号吗。

首相家连个保姆都没有，还要亲自做饭给参谋长们吃。

查尔斯的婚姻没有一天是开心的，与卡米拉的关系就没断过。

这一集讲的亲子关系有意思，很饱满。

真不真实不重要，重点是好故事。

当我知道英国和阿根廷在不远的过去还打过仗时，第一反应就是bully 。

e5尽管如此，我仍觉得这些西方人被宠坏了。

安保确实差，他不光潜入了皇宫，还在巨大的宫殿里成功找到了女王。

他还进了两次皇宫。

这要发生在我国可咋办。

女王处理得很得体，在她那个位置上可没被如此对待过，难以想象我们的皇上也能这样得体。

e6查尔斯和卡米拉一起在聚会中讲猎熊人的黄色笑话，还挺不体面的。

父母关系是这样的，很难想象查尔斯和威廉之间有正常的父子关系。

四两拨千斤地化解了君主制难题，不太可能吧。

如果不能做到讨人喜欢，君主立宪制里的君主部分就很难实现了。

敏感而缺乏安全感的查尔斯，女王在他小时候就独自出访五个月，当然了。

女王对擅闯皇宫的男人都比对戴安娜友善。

e7玛格丽特去世得更早一些，抽烟喝酒是一方面，另一方面则是空虚，郁郁寡欢。

e8女王登基三十余年，第一位公开不对付的首相竟是女首相。

这外国人真是大惊小怪，这点小事就线症危机，没见过世面。

他们对待新闻秘书的方式才是英式的，是yes prime minister 一直在告诉我们的。

London rules,cover your arse。

这能创造一位优秀的政治惊悚小说家吗？

e9查尔斯是个不讨喜的国王，极度缺乏安全感，或许与女王在他幼时独自出访五个月，没法亲自给他洗澡有关。

他的父亲和他相比是个更好的丈夫，至少有趣。

确如本集名称，雪崩。

小时候从新闻上只知道戴妃受人爱戴，但不知道还有那么多桃色新闻。

雪崩后两人的反应截然相反，而与父母的谈话也很微妙。

这样其实更累。

这些王子公主也已三十七八了，但仍像是小孩，养尊处优真好。

e10撒切尔夫人外表真是强硬，可能也是得这样的性格才能做得了女首相，彼时的大英帝国女性平权当年毕竟也没做多好，女王都生了四个孩子。

撒切尔有点权欲熏心，都想解散国会了。

圣上为人民服务的心肯定也与她一样。

戴妃是个不错的人，而查尔斯挺讨人厌。

英国人可能都这么想，讨人厌的国王。

女王总是试图躲避儿子与儿媳的婚姻问题。

女王也说得也没大错，养尊处优无病呻吟的夫妇。

这一季看着在讲查尔斯夫妇的婚姻生活，但仍旧是在讲述王冠的沉重，尽管查尔斯做国王的时间不长，但他被王冠压了一辈子。

一开始的时候，我是带着十分兴奋的心情看这部剧的，毕竟我对英国80年代的流行文化和历史很感兴趣。

尤其是戴安娜王妃和撒切尔夫人的登场，让我对这部剧更加抱有期待。

这一个星期断断续续看下来之后，觉得确实还原了英国那个激荡的80年代。

尤其是对英国80年代流行音乐的运用，使得全剧处处都是第二波英伦入侵的影子。

像戴妃最爱的Duran Duran，Ultravox以及Queen等歌手的名曲，都有出现，这对于我这个New Wave的忠实听众来说是个惊喜。

但是当我把这部剧与历史的史实以及英国的现状结合起来的时候，我的观剧感受似乎带上了一层沉重的气氛。

因为我知道，这部剧虽然其中含有众多虚构的成分，但是它纪录的是曾经的历史。

而曾经的历史又直接影响了如今的故事。

所以当我看到《王冠》当中有些情节的时候，总会不由得联想到现在。

第一集，以伊丽莎白二世骑马向白金汉宫外的人们致意为开头，以蒙巴顿公爵的葬礼为结束。

可共和主义者对于英国政府的控诉，却贯穿着这一头一尾。

这声声控诉把北爱尔兰的伤痕一开始便展露在我们的眼前，告诉我们这片土地承受了多少的哀愁和痛楚。

之后的剧情虽然没有重点着墨于北爱局势，但是频现于电视报道中的示威，恐袭，还是告诉我们80年代的北爱尔兰依然动荡。

而撒切尔夫人在蒙巴顿公爵去世后向女王立下的誓言，则告诉我们她与IRA之间即将展开血腥的战争。

后来在80年代发生的绝食抗议和布莱顿爆炸案，也印证了铁娘子的决心有多坚定。

如今，北爱政府继20年前的吉尔莫四人组后，又逮捕了一位涉嫌参与1974年伯明翰爆炸的嫌犯。

而英国脱欧后可能留下的硬边界，则似乎是折磨英国的‘癌症’复发的征兆。

第五集‘费根’告诉了我们，撒切尔夫人削减福利，打击工会的政策给英国带来的影响有多沉重。

这一集讲述了迈克尔费根闯入白金汉宫并于女王谈话的历史事件，同时也描写了伦敦的失业者们落魄贫困的景象，以及当时恶劣的社会环境。

多次求职无果的费根走投无路，只能用特殊的方式‘上访’，让女王听到民意。

那段女王与费根的谈话，让我联想到如今英国社会由于疫情失去工作的老百姓们。

他们其中可能在80年代，作为20出头的年轻人，就已经忍受着贫困的屈辱。

正如Wham那首Wham Rap当中唱的，‘...I may not have a job, But I have a good time...’，尽可能的用酒精和音乐麻痹自我。

20多年过去了，私有化的遗毒依然存在，失业人群依然居高不下。

政治家们把他们失业的罪过推脱给移民和少数族裔，于是人们选择了脱欧，选择了排外，继而出现了疾风一代丑闻（Windrush Scandal，少数族裔被剥夺工作资格的事件），然后少数族裔又反过来用BLM回击着...如果撒切尔夫人还在世，看到如今的英国社会非但没有复兴，反而愈加分裂和衰败时，不知她会作何感想。

而女王这样的上层阶级，真的能听到百姓的心声吗？

她又能做出多少改变呢？

而全剧最大的看点，也就是查尔斯与戴安娜的婚姻，则最让我感到唏嘘。

在我看来，卡米拉，查尔斯和戴安娜的情感纠葛不仅是他们个人的痛苦，也是王室的痛苦。

当看到菲利普亲王对戴安娜说出我们都是‘局外人’时，我能感受到王室婚姻的巨大悲哀。

其中的每一个人都在为维持着君主立宪制度的存活而被折磨几乎筋疲力尽，每个人都在逢场作戏，每个人都背负着沉重的枷锁。

而如今看看哈利与梅根的公然背叛，看看安德鲁王子丑闻爆发时的窘迫，你会明白伊丽莎白二世如今的心境，其实和撒切尔夫人离开唐宁街的心境是如出一辙的，那就是‘哀莫大于心死’。

而尽管女王无可争议地贯彻了当年一声‘我将为这个国家奉献一生’的誓言，但是当人们开始怀疑‘We will meet again’时，当人们走上街头抗议防疫措施时，女王的心情该会有多无奈。

女王已经尽力了，可是百姓已经不再相信童话了。

《王冠》将会拍到第六季，也就是2000年代作为全系列的结尾，但是我们已经知道这个系列的真正结局是什么样了。

‘查尔斯和卡米拉进入白金汉宫后，外面围着一圈圈的抗议人群...’毫无疑问这不是一个美好的结局。

可残忍的是，这或许是一个必将发生的结局。

那一轮太阳，终将在黑夜中若隐若现一阵后，再也不见其踪影。
