God Save David I Guess
I guess this is supposed to be Frogmore House as that is where Wallis and David are buried. I have not been to Frogmore House so I have no idea if this is a good recreation of it.
God Save the Back of Camilla's Head
Wallis DID wear a very dramatic face veil to the funeral. That seems in character.
God Save The Soap Opera
I TRULY wish this show were the show that this shot implies that it is: Namely, a really dramatic soap opera.
God Save Olivia Colman
Just a general note that Olivia Colman has to make this facial expression approximately 100 times per episode. It's her Serious Listening Face and it gets a real workout.
God Save The Royal Bedchambers
"Aw, dang it, Nigel! Have we remembered to get in a real great shot of that light fixture they gave us for free yet?" "Colin, thank god you remembered! I'll shove it in this episode."
God Save Chaz
"I suppose I'm on a boat." (Josh O'Connor's hangdog face is great in this episode.)
God Save The Side of Camilla's Face
I do enjoy all of Camilla's headgear. She DOES love a lid.
God Save Camilla's Face
HERE is her face! It's a good face! Why aren't we seeing more of it?
God Save the Lighting Budget
It's amusing to me that the shots of this show in which the electricity are ON are nearly as dark as the ones in which it is off.
God Save the Queen
I must admit that I too would constantly be sticking paintings of the Queen into shots like this, if I worked on this show.
God Save the Heating Bill
I also enjoyed the detail that everyone was wearing her fur when the heat was turned off. It's accurate!
God Save Anne
And here's the back of Anne's head. She is a hoot in this scene -- even if I think, when we got the shot of her driving to the palace and singing David Bowie, that we were about to see her kidnapping be thwarted.
God Save Silent Scenes
This show loves taking scenes that should be very emotional and juicy and only showing them to us as viewed through a window so we can't hear the emotional juicy bits!
God Save the Side of Camilla's Face Again
For a VERY long time in this scene, I thought Camz was making this "it's complicated" call to Chaz in her bathrobe.
God Save The Family
HBC didn't have any lines in this episode at all! Well. Maybe one, to Charles at the open. But she really did get to just show up, put on a tiara, and collect a paycheck.
God Save The Back of Camilla's Head Again
How has no one noticed this directorial quirk in this show and dialed it back???? It's not a SURPRISE that Camilla is the one getting married. We know it's her!
God Save Camilla's First Marriage
And indeed it is her. (Here's Camilla's actual wedding photo. It's rather delightful.)
God Save You Know the Rest
Sigh.
