Pretty good Netflix docudrama about the time from before abdication of Elizabeth's uncle  to time when Churchill finally stepped down.  John Lithgow did a good job as Churchill.  I lost some respect for Churchill in this, but he was a major player in the lateb19th century through the mid 20th century, and his leadership in WWII  is ovwhelming, but not featured in this series.  Focus is on Elizabeth and Phillip.  Worth watching.

Don't forget it's mostly fiction, made for gullible people. Dallas set in the UK :wink:
What's good for bees is usually good for mankind. Doesn't that mean sharing?

Sorry to hear that, Ben :sad:

I was referring to the TV series 'Dallas' an everyday story of oil folk. :wink:
