If you’ve been following this Blog for a while, you know that I am not fond of newfangled Streaming services, and I am more fond of Terrestrial, Over The Air Television; the 3 Broadcast Networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC), and PBS; than I am over Cable Television, and the FOX Television Network.
As an old soul, a traditionalist, and a historian who doesn’t have the choice but to tolerate the newfangled Streaming services sometimes, because he has to live in the present time until he eventually embarks on his journey to our Spiritual Home with God and other beings, where the 1970’s, 1980’s, and early 1990’s linger on forevermore; I am satisfied with watching the Television Show “The Crown” that is broadcast on the Netflix Streaming Platform and DVD Rental Service. See earlier post I Had A Visual Encounter With A Celestial Being During My Slumber. It Is Possible That The Time For Me To Return Home with God, Together With My Friends And Beloved, Deceased Relatives; Is Getting Closer for more information regarding my eventual journey back to our Spiritual Home with God.
Watching the Television Program “The Crown”, as an aficionado of the British Monarchy, the British Peerage System, and several other current and defunct Monarchies around the world (such as those of Japan, South Korea, Russia, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Spain; to name a few); especially the episodes that take place during the 1970’s, 1980’s, and the early 1990’s, with Louis Mountbatten, 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma appearing in several episodes (including his closeness to Charles) prior to his assassination by the Irish Republican Army (IRA) in 1979, Elizabeth and Phillip in their 40’s, 50’s, and 60’s; Margaret, the Countess of Snowdon in her 40’s, 50’s, and 60’s; the Monarchy successfully impeding Charles’ attempt to marry (the bitchy) Camilla Shand-Parker-Bowles the first time around in the 1970’s, Lord Louis Montbatten engineering Camilla’s engagement and first marriage to Andrew Parker-Bowles; a great-great grandson of Thomas Parker, 6th Earl of Macclesfield; and a distant relative of Richard Parker, 9th Earl of Macclesfield; Charles courting Diana’s eldest sister Sarah Spencer, Charles also meeting Diana for the very first time as a pupil in a Ballerina Costume while courting her eldest sister Sarah, Diana and Charles meeting again when Charles happened to be parking his Aston Martin DBS V8 Convertible in the parking area Badminton House with the Top down, while on his way to attend the 1979 Badminton Horse Trials to spectate his sister Anne riding his mother Elizabeth’s Horse; and Diana also happens to be at the 1979 Badminton Horse Trials, helping Charles to park his Car while at the same time, referring to Charles as “Your Highness”, and then reminding Charles that the last time them two had met was when she was in a Costume as a Ballerina Dancer while he was courting her sister Sarah; Diana and Charles eventually dating, Diana being madly in love with Charles, trouble brewing with Diana and Charles as early as when they were dating, and Diana had already moved into Buckingham Palace, as Charles still did not want to let go of Camilla, and Diana didn’t really fit in with the strict Royal customs protocol; Diana eventually marrying into the House of Windsor and officially becoming the Princess of Wales; mainly to satisfy the Court’s demand for Charles to be married during or after the age of 30, and to produce at least two offspring; rather than the mutual love and respect that Charles and Diana briefly had for one another, and the Court’s expectation that the love triangle between Charles, Diana, and Camilla would be as trivial and harmless as it has been with Monarchs for Centuries, and ignoring the fact that by the early 1980’s, mutual love and respect for one another in a Marriage was a social norm, and extramarital affairs were taboo; Charles, his siblings, and the elder members of the family each being thorns in the side of Diana’s “eclectic” personality, Diana’s internalized struggles with bulimia and depression, the News Media always accosting Diana and her two sons William and Harry, Diana’s own extramarital affairs, and Diana often taking her two sons to public places such as Restaurants, Indoor Movie Theaters, and Homeless Shelters; and mingling with the General Public as if Diana and her sons were each one of them.
See earlier post HM Elizabeth II, And Her November 1992 Speech At Guildhall That Led To Her Declaring That 1992 Was An Annus Horribilis (Horrible Year) For The Crown, with my comments about Elizabeth II’s November, 1992 speech; and how in contrast to 1992 being a terrible year for Elizabeth II, 1992 was one of the best years of the life of yours truly; the owner of this very Blog. 1989. 1990, 1991, 1993, and 1994 were more of the best years of the life of yours, truly.
As the Television Program titled “The Crown” had ended with the marriage of Charles and (the bitchy) Camilla Parker-Bowles in 2005, and Elizabeth II having contemplated abdicating and letting Charles ascend to the throne as King in 2005 before she ultimately decided not to do so; and the series ending with the send off of Phillip 16 years before his actual death in 2021, and the send off of Elizabeth II by with Elizabeth walking down the aisle of the Church, around her own casket, draped in the flag of the House of Windsor, and adorned with the actual Crown, and the Scepter Ornamental Rod; Elizabeth’s teenage, young adult, and middle-aged selves attending her funeral, and Elizabeth’s teenage self while serving in the Auxiliary Territorial Service saluting her elderly self as the future Queen, and Elizabeth deserving all the British and Commonwealth Military commendations a departed Monarch could ask for, as Elizabeth makes her way out of the Church and into the spiritual white light, all occurring 17 years before her actual death in 2022; I would have written the storyline for Elizabeth and Phillip’s send offs differently.
I would have written the storyline for Elizabeth and Phillip’s send offs where they make their way out of Windsor Castle or Buckingham Palace, and into a white, spiritual light where an American School Bus (in the Exterior Color National School Bus Chrome) is waiting to pick them both up. After Elizabeth and Phillip both board the American School Bus; the Driver of the American School Bus then transports Elizabeth and Phillip to Heaven, and to other realms; where Elizabeth is reunited with her mother Elizabeth Angela Marguerite Bowes-Lyon , her father George VI, her sister Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon; her grandmother Mary of Teck, her great-great Grandmother Queen Victoria; and Phillip is reunited with several of his Greek, Danish, German, and Russian ancestors.
