    Since the season is largely divided between Thatcher and Diana, you have some terrific Thatcher episodes and some really shaky Diana episodes, and unlike Season 2, which has been the show’s strongest thus far, there’s no major arc that ties everything together.

Not only it is rewriting history in a very insidious way but also gets lost in the most trivial and inane aspects of English politics of the last 70 years.
    As a French, and no Anglophile, I am first aghast at the depiction of England as a political culture but also, and more importantly. repulsed by the inanity of what America is not onlycreating for itself but also forcing onto the world. At least Hollywood gave us John Ford, Martin Scorcese or Francis Ford Coppola. Netflix, Disney and Hulu are peddling nothing but crap
