Beneath The Crown | Becoming The Prince Of Wales 

I absolutely love Josh O'Connor as Prince Charles. All the actors in The Crown are so good at making the royals (and other characters) seem human, which they are. I do feel that Olivia's version of the queen is more stoic, intentionally so, compared to Claire's insecure and perhaps naïve version of her.

I think it shows how much everyone loved Diana that Charles lost so much of his popularity when he left her

The Crown certainly has humanized Charles more and that is a good thing. So many of his decent qualities and good works were lost sight of, because of his tortured relationship with Diana. They were a pair that were forced together and not the best fit.

Hearing young Prince Charles speak made me realize what a great cast Josh O'Connor is. He's captured (at least on the surface) Charles so well, he even actually sounds like him (I get it, that was the point).

I’m glad they showed Charles as a character with feelings unlike how the media shows him as heartless because of Diana

I had no idea that he spoke Welsh. I believe that all members of the Royal family should be fluent in all four languages spoken in the British Isles.

Josh really NAILED the speaking voice of Charles.

I wonder how they're gonna portrait Diana and their relationship.

Because of this episode, My perception of Prince Charles really changed! Respect for him!

He's always been a lot more sympathetic and level-headed than most people thought. He comes across as a bit frumpy, but he's more ... well, radical for want of a better word ... than most people realize. It might be interesting to see what kind of monarch he'll be, maybe more interventionist -- if his mom ever actually dies, that is.

The Crown is one of the best tv shows ever made. It’s a masterpiece

Josh O'Conner stole the show! In an interview, he spoke about working with a speech therapist. I wonder as in the show, did Charles really spoke words in Welsh that had a hidden meaning? I can not imagine he spoke with such vigor to the Queen. Even though he should have. LOL

Tedi Millward - The academic who taught Welsh to Prince Charles when he was at Aberystwyth University died today. Rest in peace / Cwsg yn dawel.

Josh O'Connor !!! He is GREAT! However, it will hurt me in season 4 to see Prince Charles betray Diana :(

Josh O'Connor is so hot!

Based on his title alone, why wasn't he learning Welsh from childhood?

I was pretty surprised they didn’t go into the fact that the Duke of Windsor refused to return the Prince of Wales coronet and a new one had to be made for Charles. I really missed them covering Anne’s kidnapping as well.

It all makes sense why Elizabeth hasn’t stepped down yet. People didn’t like Charles before Diana, after Diana, and then with Camilla.

Wow i was touched by the last part. Even though i truly dislike prince charles.

Still not my prince of Wales. Although I will say, the the episode 'tywysog Cymru' did touch me, and the actor is brilliant and learnt the language very well fair play.

3:41 wow Josh O’Connor totally nailed as Prince Charles!He totally sounds the same as him on the show!

0:15 PRINCE CHARLES AND SASS!! OMG 😱

To all those moaning about Charles - do you not see how brave you must be to get through these large public ceremonies... could YOU get up and deliver that speech with such confidence and authority? In Welsh. Would like to see you try!

I do love his accent😂

All the people hating on Charles need to chill out a bit. He loved Camilla but was forced to marry Diana.

I hope this is a start for more Welsh representation in media.

I think the sad cruelty of it all is how traditionalism has caused so much heartbreak in the name of keeping with tradition. Had Prince David been allowed to marry Wallis as he did and remain king, Prince Albert would not have been thrust into the role. He may very well have outlived his brother had be not been forced to be king. Had Charles been allowed to marry Camilla as he ultimately did then would there be such this negative connotation that comes along with Charles? Would Diana be married to some Earl living a quiet and Happy life. Could Andrew & Fergie remarry and not have this odd half and half open ended relationship? All because it's not what they have done before? Whatever, who knows, God Save the Queen.

I watched this episode Richard II plays in the end is clever choice

If the protocol is already in place regarding who gets which title, why wasn't he taught welsh (i hope that's what it's called) in his childhood? ....just a question...

btw at 7:05 wow, it's a really beautiful the queen's smile

I didn't have much of an opinion of Charles to begin with: I didn't hate him, but I didn't know much about him as a person. I only knew that he was cheating on Diana with Camilla and eventually married her. It's still not a nice thing to have done, but when I learned that he and Camilla had been together before Diana, but had not been allowed to marry themselves, it put things better in perspective. And I still love Diana, but she admitted that she'd been cheating as well in the marriage. They just weren't a good match. The point is, after seeing this show and seeing the more human side of Charles that's been buried by the media, I have a better opinion of him than what I had previously. I don't know if after Elizabeth dies people would want to accept him as king (or Camilla as his queen, for that matter), and he'd probably get a lot of bad press. But that being said, I think he would be a decent king.

Cymru Rydd! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Prince William has his father's mannerism 100 percent!

It’s ironic when Elizabeth went to her mother because she didn’t get the education she needed and here she is doing the exact same thing to her kids..

He’s King now!👑🤴

To the people who think Charles was a bad guy: Prince Charles was in love with Camilla, but was not allowed to marry her. Diana was seen as 'fit' for the RF, so they pitted the two together and hoped for the best. Put yourself in his shoes; you love someone and want to be with them, but your parents tell you that you cannot be with them and find you another person. It would be unbearable. He is a great person and would be a great ruler, but so many people look at him with eyes of judgement simply because of his affair. Public life and personal life should be kept seperate.

Does the commentary need a disco?

Diana came from a very problematic abusive family. All she ever wanted was attention. After her divorce she dated a Pakistani cardiologist and once she stormed inside his Operation theatre to grab a hold of him! As a lover she was a little exhausting and very demanding. That's why she never had a long lasting relationship. Her last lover Dodi's father wanted to use her fame to expand his business. That's why they got engaged. Diana was the reason Dodi dumped his previous fiance. So in a way she too were a mistress at some point. Her problematic family ruined her life at the very beginning. Her mental illness was never treated. Otherwise who in their right mind would agree to marry elder sister's ex bf without even dating him. In TC (don't know if it was historically right or not) ,they showed she tried so hard to grab Charles' attention even when he was seeing her sister. Then when she was asked for marriage-she agreed instantly. Before marrying Charles,she mostly looked up to being a future queen. That's where she mistook it. Her attention was mostly at the crown,not at the man she was marrying. So when the marriage happened and she found his husband entirely different from her expectations- it was a hard blow for the young 20 yo lady. Poor her. Just a right family and a loving husband- she only needed those two. Charles as a person was never understood-both by his family and by the people. If you check out his interviews,he is a great human being who really thinks about the world and it's well being. He is also a great father. Sadly, marrying Diana was the worst thing he ever did. I guess his being madly in love with Camilla ruined their marriage any chances. At the end it it entirely the crown's fault for them not letting Charles marry Camilla in the first place. Not every man can be bent according to the crown's will.

0:15-Lizzy just got oofed!

actually all of the royals wanted to break free from any royal protocols. everyone wanted to show who they are by not just standing there or just simply wave their hands to the people. not just to show the people about who they are as the royal family but as an individual. they need to hold the firm tight by standing as one for the crown. not just charles but also anne wanted to do their individual interests and show it to the people that other than being a royal they also wanted to grow as an individual. Actually this shows that from the start royal is tackling with an identity crisis. this made them difficult for them to stand on what or who they really are since they depend on public approval and the safest way to do that is to appear poise and gallant all the time that even certain mishap can affect your reputation. charles was not a bad man. he was also a victim of being pushed all the time. he might be walking around with people around him seems like waiting for him to follow what he is about to say or order, but actually these people around him are the ones pointing him to do this and do that.

I really don't get why people hate on Charles, I think they're just determined to. I find him easily the most sympathetic character on the show. His colder attitude in S4 strikes me as the result of how his mother and rest of the family treated him for so many years, it eventually manifested in him and he became cold. I know the show is dramatized, but I feel so sad for him when I watch.

The royal family really ruined this poor kid

Me: turns on captions Captions: speaks a foreign language Me: why........ you had one job

Netflix must think their viewers are ignorant. In Season 3, the episode whre the BBC films the Royal Family Documentary, Prince Charles was in the film. In "The Crown" they eliminated him.

My heart broke into pieces for Prince Charles I don't know what I would do if my mother hates me. She loved her children before she became queen. But the queen status belittled her husband who retaliated every chance he got. So the new queen became angry at her new position and hated every one around it.

I love UK & Irland Netflix and Im mexican haha

Those Ears are uncanny! He could take off with those 👂🚁😂

You covered up one of the elderly ladies with a caption about the elderly ladies.

It's amazing how people were so happy that he could string a sentence together in welsh when it should be the bare minimum to know the language of the place you are the PRINCE of.

The presenters eyes.....wow!

Ohhhh I loved the cast of season 3 and 4 season I hate to see them go. Disappointed in the movie "Spencer" yuk! God's blessings to our little princess in heaven. I hope she now knows how much she is loved.

I still have a hard time understanding that Prince Charles has never put toothpaste on his own toothbrush or even dressed or undressed by hisself. It’s hard to like him after his treatment of Diana, but even if that never happened, his ridiculously over indulged, pampered life makes it hard to have any sympathy for him. You know that Josh, is an amazing actor because he makes you feel something besides disgust for Prince Charles (until season 4)...

Dim Tywysog Cymru. No prince of Wales. He is English born of German heritage. He has nothing to do with Wales at all. Cofiwch Owain Glyndŵr, remember Owain Glyndŵr he was the last native prince of the whole of Wales. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Cymru Rydd! Free Wales!

They have an amazing cast for the season 3 but I miss Claire foy and Matt smith. I definitely think Charles has dealt with a lot. I don’t like like him because he cheated but after watching the show I got a perspective of him. I still don’t like him but I got to view like his side.

It was a publicity stunt to Briticised a then increasingly self-aware Welsh population. The Welsh swallowed it hook line and sinker - even today many Welsh don't realise that they were shafted - Royally.

Lol the music making this sound like a rom com

Prince Charles is officially the World's oldest and long-serving Prince Wales of all time.

Alright, let’s set this record straight. How does his marriage with a woman who has been dead for over 20 years and a marriage that ended in divorce almost 25 years ago have to do with his ability to be a King? To sign legislation, to open parks and schools and museums, to grant honours, and to help facilitate the running of government. How does his relationship with the long-dead Princess of Wales effect THIS!?

Cymru Rydd! Up the FWA

I reckon when Queen E II passed away, Prince Charles will abdicate to give a way for his son Prince William to reign. Just like the Prince of Wales before him....

I've not seen the full episode but this clip makes it seem as though the Welsh protestors were terrorists who were eventually 'dealt with' and the investiture was ultimately a success. In fact, the national movement that started in this period has grown and grown and is now stronger than ever. I think they are the real heroes. Because they were willing to stand up and speak out, they helped save the culture and language of our whole country. I am all for England having a monarchy if they wish, and I have nothing but respect for the Queen and what she accomplished, but surely any fair minded person would agree that it is wrong to force a monarchy on another country like this.

Y’all realize that the Crown is a work of fiction. Yes it’s based on true events but it’s highly dramatized. Don’t base your information, and dare I say hatred, off of this show.

As the future George IV says in 'The Madness of George III' - "Prince of Wales is not a position - it is a predicament."

Tbh Charles was a very Good man his only fault was that he cheated

Ah wooo! Weirwoles of London!

Charles was real cute 😍

Boss : Finish this before you leaving the office Me : But Boss : No buts

Why does she talk like there's a question mark at every end of the sentence lol...

Prince Charles as a prince of Wales should do more to understand the Druids their origin and connection with the Sun God and by doing so it will help him when he becomes King of England because the history of Wales is connected with the Bachwezi here in Uganda a former British protectorate

Prince charles only care about is his IMAGE SPECIALLY WHEN PRINCESS DIANA BECAME FAMOUS

Young charles was handsome, a bit of freddie highmore

The Prince of Wales used to live in harmony but everything changed when the Parker-Bowles attacked... XDXD No, but seriously, it's so funny that they did this to manipulate people perception of him and making him more likeable and popular and then he goes and fucks everything later XD hahaha so sad

Wow she is so good looking

Perhaps the only coronation Charles will see lol

Poor Charles, Will he become a King anytime soon?

So did he really add his own comments onto the speech that had been prepared for him?

Josh o connar portaryed prince charles just like him. Excellent copy of prince charles in 2020

He is so cute ❤️😩

When is the next seasion coming out?

Another way for England to cement itself as the "owner" of Wales, and I hate how this show as well as this video portrays people voicing this colonialist move as simple "hecklers" and "troublemakers". If this happened in any other country that the UK used to own, it would be regarded as disgusting and pure colonialist propaganda, but because it's in Wales it's okay because "it's on the same island so they must be the same people!". Charles better be the last Anglo Prince of Wales.

God save the King!

The music score of the video is sooooo off, just tone deaf

Yet Lady Diana will always be the Princess of Wales

i hope they have an episode where her and mother plan diana's execution

"...as the leader of the next Generation. " Oh no there will be way more generations till he will be able to lead

The video topic is cool, but the host is smiling way too much. The topic is a bit heavy and doesn't fit the flow. No visible hosts at all, with just voice over like the Aberfan video.

Abolish the monarchy!

Into the affections of the public. Fail.

But we didn't want a prince. Still don't. The graffiti over the Prince of Wales bridge across the Severn calls it the pont-y-cont. If they ever foist another one on us our nation will have a lot to say and do to try and prevent it.

it’s too bad people are only seeing the bad in charles.. i mean his whole life he was distant from his family in a way we would never understand. he only simply chose camilla because she was his first love ever, the only bad he did was that he agreed marrying diana for the throne and not for the heart. yes he did love diana at some point, but he always knew his heart belonged to camilla and who are we to blame him for sacrifing everything for love? his reputation, his image and maybe even almost his throne, he sacrificed it all, for a girl. but he was wrong because he should have never led and abused diana while doing it. he might have been abusive to diana causing her to have mental issues, but he was a human too. and diana, she wasn’t faithful at some point in their marriage too, which proves its a tragedy..

00:10 he just roasted the Queen

Josh resembles young Charles.... hahahaha

I just hope that he will never become the king of GB. He is not cut for it as a very weak man and Camilla as a Queen would be disastrous for Britain. On the other hand the country has chosen Brexit and Boris so… maybe Charles added to the bunch would be appropriate.

Its okay not to love Diana coz we cant stop people falling in love so its okay wen he fall in love with camilla...but the most horrible things was he never respect her own child bride who was teen wen they got married which was very younger than him...it would hv been nice if he treated her like a human being but he humiliated her like a stupid cow and bullied her destroying all her youth , self esteem and youth...scolding , abusing and humiliating her was his and camilla's job....

Why does everyone hate Prince Charles so much?

Laura Jackson speaks in a very mannered way. It's quite unpleasant to watch.

*no buts-*

Which episode talks about prince Edward raping little girls and the queen gladly giving him early retirement and legal immunity as his prize?

Prince Charles would’ve made a great King!!

No buts😂
