Royals On Screen

Hello!

In this post, I am going to tell you about some documentaries, movies and TV Shows about the British Royal Family.

The Crown
The Crown is a historical drama series on Netflix.It is a biographical show about the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, with the first season covering her marriage to Prince Phillip, Duke of Edinburgh to the break up of her sister Princess Margaret and Peter Townsend's engagement. Two seasons have aired and they have been very well received. The Queen and other members of the Royal family have watched and are fans of the show.

Monarchy: The Royal Family At Work
This is a documentary which follows the British Royal Family while they work for a year. Viewers get to be a fly on the wall of The Queen's state visit to the United States, a state banquet and inner workings of Buckingham Palace, a weekend with former Prime Minister Tony Blair, a garden party and other events. 


The Royals
A five-part documentary series about the royal family. Each episode covers one topic through the generations: weddings, funerals, teens, babies and pets. It includes interviews with experts, historic videos and modern footage. 

Elizabeth at 90: A Family Tribute 
On the eve of the queen's 90th birthday, members of the royal family talk about her and share rarely seen home videos. 

Diana Queen of Hearts, Her True Story
This is a biographical film about the life of Diana, Princess of Wales, from her childhood to her relationship and marriage to Prince Charles. It shows deeply troubled and unhappy times with her eating disorder and the break down of their marriage. 

William and Kate
Another biographical film which was released just before the wedding of Prince William and Catherine Middleton. It tells the story of William and Kate's nine-year courtship from meeting at St Andrew's University in 2001 to their engagement in 2010. 


The Queen 
This movie depicts the royal family's response to the death of Diana, Princess of Wales in August 1997. Helen Mirren stars as Queen Elizabeth II. It exceeded box-office expectations and received many awards. This is my favourite film about the royals and I highly recommend that everyone watches it. 


Harry & Meghan: A Royal Romance 
A film about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's relationship. It was just released on 13th May, just a week before their wedding on Saturday. 


Thank you,

Welcome back Justice Crew!

                                           Photo credit to @Justicecrewofficial Instagram Justice Crew are a dance and music group who won Australia's Got Talent in 2010 and went on to release many amazing songs including number one hits Boom Boom and Que Sera . After their tour in 2019, they took a long break and now they are back!  I have been a huge fan of them since the beginning and have been to a lot of their shows, so when they announced they were performing a show in February, of course I was excited and attended with my friend. There was a huge crowd there to see them, which surprised a few people, including maybe the guys themselves. After six years, they probably felt rusty, but they were actually amazing as always. It was so cool to see them on stage again and here all the hit songs the number ones and  Everybody. It's so crazy how even now, after six year...

Light in the Darkness

  We all carry a little darkness. Moments we don’t speak of. Storms We face. Shadows we walk through quietly.   But that doesn’t mean our light is gone.   Even on heavy days, when it feels like someone has punched us in the chest, or everything feels hopeless. We work. We care. We laugh. We create. We shine, like the brightest star in the sky.   No matter what happens today – even if it’s messy, or lonely, or full of tears - The sun will rise in the morning. Like it always does. Like we always do.   Because light doesn’t have to shout. Sometimes it just keeps showing up, quietly. One bright beam at a time.

Virtual Stop #1: Lymington - A Seaside Gem Discovered by Chance

Welcome to my virtual travel series, where I explore beautiful corners of the world without leaving my bed. Inspired by TikTok livestreamers and walking tour videos, these posts capture what I see, feel and learn as I journey through new places from afar.  I wasn't planning to visit Lymington - not virtually, not in any way. I had never heard of it before watching my favorite singing buskers livestream from the quaint little town in the UK and now I'm captivated. The charm of Lymington unfolded before my eyes: Cobbled pathways, rows of boats bobbing gently at the marina and friendly locals to stop and enjoy the music. I experienced it from my bed.  There is something so welcoming about the town, The people passing by weren't just polite - they were supportive. Some clapped, others left kind words or a few coins, and a few even stayed for songs. There are three ladies who go often to support the guys. They have all been following them on TikTok for a while and met each other...
