1 00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:06,280 Speaker 1: This is jam Nation with Jones. The new season of 2 00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:10,840 Speaker 1: The Crown is about to drop on November ninth. This 3 00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:13,680 Speaker 1: is season five, and this is the one. This is 4 00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:15,880 Speaker 1: why it's interesting to wonder how people are feeling about it. 5 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,200 Speaker 1: This is the one that will cover the nineteen nineties. 6 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,240 Speaker 1: This was the darkest decades for the royal family in 7 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:23,599 Speaker 1: recent memory. And this is the one that many of 8 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: us at our age have lived through the divorce of 9 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 1: Charles and Diana, the affair with Camilla Parker Bowls, Diana's 10 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 1: death far at Windsor Castle, or the Annis Horribilis. People 11 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: are feeling conflicted about this series because it is now 12 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 1: entering the timeline of the stuff we know and is 13 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,080 Speaker 1: it true? Is it made up? How do we feel 14 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:48,479 Speaker 1: about this in the light of the queen passing recently. 15 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: Here's some of the trailer. In light the events of 16 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 1: the last twelve months. Perhaps I have more to reflect 17 00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 1: on than most. The Royal Farmer is in genuine crisis. 18 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 2: I have royal channels damaged, the country's reputation. The House 19 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 2: of Wincess should be finding the nation together, setting an 20 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:14,639 Speaker 2: example of idealized family life. It's a situation that can't 21 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 2: help but affect the stability is a country. 22 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 1: For years, I've called for a more modern monarchy that 23 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: reflects the world outside. I don't think it's my behavior 24 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: that's threatening its survival. You as future king duty people. 25 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 2: Won't never understand how it's really been. 26 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: Sounds great, as she says at the end, I never 27 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 1: stood a jam. I got so much catching up to do. Well, 28 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: you know, I'm still when he's getting these lung ripped 29 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: out in the castle. The first seasons were very historically interesting. 30 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: That's when I loved it. I've stopped watching since it's 31 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: moved into stuff that's in my timeline. Judy Dench, she's 32 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: not in it. Only production ever that she hasn't been in, 33 00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: but she was in it. Now she's in my wedding video, 34 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: but she's not in this. And she has said the 35 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: closer the drama comes to our recent times or present times, 36 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 1: the more freely it seems willing to blur the lines 37 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: between historical accuracy and crude sensationalism. So this is the 38 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:17,359 Speaker 1: first time ever Netflix has responded to some criticisms of 39 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: the made up bits and has put the word fictional 40 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 1: as a disclaimer on the show. This is the first 41 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: of the seasons where they've said fictional, but people are saying, oh, 42 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 1: there's a friend who's close to the palace. Has a 43 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 1: friend of the queen hasn't been named, has said it's 44 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 1: vicious and would have destroyed the queen because of how 45 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: vicious the dramatized plotlines are. One of her close friends 46 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,800 Speaker 1: has read watch it. I don't know. There's mixed stories 47 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 1: as to whether the royals have ever watched it, because 48 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: it'll be weird, wouldn't it. It would be weird because 49 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: some of it would be how do they know that? 50 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: And some of it would be as if that happened. 51 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 1: Do you want to see this stuff? Do you want 52 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: to see the horror of what we live through? And 53 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: I'm I wish we were a republic, But I have 54 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: effect for the Queen and of affection for Harry and William, 55 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: and I feel bad for them watching the awfulness of 56 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 1: their parents' marriage play out. This is an interesting quote. 57 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 1: Someone said, what gets me about Dame Judy's crankiness at 58 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: the Crown is Charles is such a ghastly creature, rampant fornicator, 59 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: conspicuous adulterer, wanted his mistresses to be a feminine hygiene products. 60 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 1: Then should be demanding the queen make stuff up and 61 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: not tell the truth. The truth was horrific, a rampant fornicator. 62 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: But we expect more from the royal family. That's been 63 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: a pr job. They were under surveillance in a way 64 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: they've never been before, and it showed them not in 65 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: a great light. Well, I'm happy. I'm happy to see it. 66 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: I paid to see a dive in act. I want 67 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: to seize me a dive and act. It's interesting. It 68 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: makes me uncomfortable. The old historical so the crown has 69 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: never been boring, It's been historically fascinating. And make stuff up. 70 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 2: Don't transport the rock into it or anything like that, 71 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 2: you know, just. 72 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 1: Stick to he plays the role of the tampon. Actually 73 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: that'd be dreadful. Camilla has backed out of all the people, 74 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: not him. A should I put this to the pub tests? 75 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: As the crown enters into the stuff we know and 76 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: the Queen's recent passing, how are you feeling about it? 77 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that for the pub test. We're really 78 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 1: getting ahead of ourselves, aren't we Just
