While many British viewers have enjoyed watching “The Crown,” the Netflix show has drawn criticism for a variety of reasons. The streaming giant has been asked to add disclaimers at the beginning of “The Crown” episodes to make it clear that it is a work of fiction.
In the episode titled “Act of God, Queen Mary roundly rejects Prince Philip’s ideas about the monarchy when a young Queen Elizabeth II visits her to discuss a letter from her grandmother on the hit Netflix series” The Crown. “
When her grandmother tells her that the monarchy is a call from God, the queen says, “I’m not sure my husband agrees with that. He would say that in any equitable modern society, church and state should be separate. He would also say that he saw his own family destroyed because people saw them as the embodiment of indefensible and unreasonable ideas. “
Dismissing his argument, Queen Mary says: “He (Prince Philip) represents a royal family of upstarts and upstarts dating back to what? Ninety years?”
She adds: “What would he know of Alfredo the Great, the Rod of Equity and Mercy, Eduardo the Confessor, Guillermo the Conqueror or Enrique the Eighth?
“It is the Church of England, my dear, not the Church of Denmark or Greece.”
