Serious Stuff under the Fluff
antonydwhitehead24 February 2021
The Death of Stalin, Succession and Dr Strangelove came to mind in this surprisingly serious episode about the wilfulness of war and diplomacy played with gusto by all and intelligently written and conceived . . it's not just Catherine who's being subversive . . great drama . . "Huzzah"

Best episode of the season for me

Aside from the laugh out loud moments, we get two heartfelt performances from Elle Fanning and Phoebe Fox. I can think of few shows that combine humor and gut wrenching moments so wonderfully. And for that reason, some people just don't get this show. Watch this episode. Listen to the song as the end credits roll. And tell me there is a better 50 minutes of television in this crazy 2020 of ours.

Writer's fun

Anyone notice the reference to the "Chernobyl girls' choir glowing"? The level of writing seems to me to be very high, balancing humor with serious moments and base human behavior.
