The Crown: Queen Elizabeth's popularity at her death could lead to a favourable depiction of her least flattering moment

In this controversial interview, Diana said:

Key Points: 
  • In this controversial interview, Diana said:
    I don’t think many people will want me to be queen.
  • Diana, now no longer in line to be Queen of England, resolved instead to be “queen of people’s hearts”.
  • Nonetheless, the following year Ipsos recorded a temporary drop in satisfaction with the queen from 75% in 1992 to 66%.
  • Supported by her popularity at her death, it will likely present the queen’s inaction in 1997 as a temporary misjudgement in a long life of public service.

A rebounding monarch

  • This was partly due to a succession of milestones which encouraged public celebration of the royal family and its matriarch.
  • These include the royal weddings of 2011 and 2018, the televised christening of Prince George (2013) (the so-called “republican slayer”), and the queen’s Diamond (2012) and Platinum Jubilees.
  • These fond cultural memories will form a vital counterpart to The Crown’s treatment of the queen’s brief fall from grace.

A nation grieves

  • The phenomenon of collective grief suggests that she may have stood, for some, for our own pandemic losses.
  • While mourning Diana as “the people’s Princess”, the series will likely end with Queen Elizabeth as the ultimate queen of hearts.
