Interesting history but rather blinkered

“You’ll find some revealing details and insights into the Queen’s life, style of governance and diplomacy, and approach to some of the social and global changes that took place during her reign, but don’t expect any critical thinking about her or the monarchy as an institution, and some stuff is completely elided—no mention is made of the decay of the rigid class system during the 20th century or the general socioeconomic shift to the left. And some info is just plain false—it’s claimed that there is no republican movement in the UK and that the average Brit still finds criticism of the monarchy offensive. This despite the anti-monarchist group Republic claiming 80,000 members, protests erupting at the Queen’s funeral, and the Sex Pistols’ “God Save the Queen” having reached #1 on the British charts in the 70s! So take this show with a grain of salt.”
