Clips from The Crown - Wolferton Splash (S01E01)

"I have to make a decision about Christmas."
The Crown
"Tell me, do you think the King will be well enough to go to Sandringham?"
The Crown
"-So it's decided. -Will you be joining us, too?"
The Crown
"Me?"
The Crown
"Course not. Peter will be spending Christmas at home with his family."
The Crown
"I was only thinking of papa."
The Crown
"Given the choice, you know he'd never let him out of his sight."
The Crown
"Oh, no. No, it's out of the question."
The Crown
"Why, mummy? Let Peter discuss it."
The Crown
"But, as a wife, I know what my answer would be."
The Crown
"Excuse me."
The Crown
"What? No, I haven't finished."
The Crown
"That look between the two of you."
The Crown
"No, I quite see the attraction of Peter."
The Crown
"You told me that, after the operation,"
The Crown
"I might expect some... soreness,"
The Crown
"But you didn't tell me about this."
The Crown
"-How often? -All the time."
The Crown
"At the time of the operation, as you know, structural alterations were discovered."
The Crown
"It's time we gave that blockage a name, sir."
The Crown
"It was a tumor."
The Crown
"A malignant tumor."
The Crown
"-But... we removed it? -We did."
The Crown
"So, what's next?"
The Crown
"Next?"
The Crown
"I argued that His Majesty should be told at the time."
The Crown
"But I was overruled. The theory was that, if His Majesty felt he'd been cured,"
The Crown
"I have two questions."
The Crown
"Who knows the full picture?"
The Crown
"Apart from the surgeons?"
The Crown
"Perhaps the Prime Minister, sir."
The Crown
"Of course."
The Crown
"But not the queen?"
The Crown
"And the second question?"
The Crown
"My understanding is the surgeons did everything they could."
The Crown
"And?"
The Crown
"It could be years."
The Crown
"Thank you."

The Crown
"I'll be back soon."
The Crown
"In case you're wondering, I haven't anything specific to say."
The Crown
"Just wanted to spend time with you."
The Crown
"Are they a nuisance?"
The Crown
"-Even at Christmas. -Even at Christmas."
The Crown
"Well, what's inside?"
The Crown
"Cabinet meetings, Foreign Office briefings,"
The Crown
"-[breathless chuckle] -[laughs]"
The Crown
"[sighs]"
The Crown
"Yeah."
The Crown
"Don't you get sick of it all?"
The Crown
"[sighs] I do."
The Crown
"-And lonely? -[sighs]"
The Crown
"-Philip? -Mm."
The Crown
"Well, he..."
The Crown
"Well, I'm afraid he's become something of a snagaholic."
The Crown
"A what?"
The Crown
"Well, ever since he started supervising the work,"
The Crown
"he can't look at anything without seeing its faults."
The Crown
""That switch is an inch too high. And that door handle's wrong.""
The Crown
"And then when your health's improved, we'll return to Malta"
The Crown
"and he'll have his navy again, and all will be well."
The Crown
"Of course."
The Crown
"Which brings me to the forthcoming Commonwealth tour."
The Crown
"Ceylon. Australia."
The Crown
"Very good!"
The Crown
"My work is as a naval officer,"
The Crown
"-What about the children? -The children will be fine."
The Crown
"If you go and play with grandpapa, I'll be right over. Good boy."
The Crown
"-[Charles] Daddy's coming. -They won't know."
The Crown
"It would so help in papa's recovery."
The Crown
"Thank you."
The Crown
"-[Philip] What are we playing? -[Charles] Granny's footsteps."
The Crown
"[Philip] Come on then. Let's go. And then it's bedtime."
The Crown
"[bagpipes playing]"
The Crown
"Yes, I'm not sure that's the correct address for the King of England."
The Crown
"I thought Wolferton Splash."
The Crown
"Christ."
The Crown
"[breathless laugh]"
The Crown
"When I woke up this morning, I thought we'd go to Babingley Flat or Eleven Acres."
The Crown
"But, in the end, there's nowhere better than the Splash"
The Crown
"with a bagful of cartridges to lift the spirits."
The Crown
"His Majesty's back to himself again."
The Crown
"[laughs]"
The Crown
"We'll be all right. My son-in-law's a naval man."
The Crown
"You understand, the titles, the... dukedom."
The Crown
"-They're not the job. -Sir?"
The Crown
"She is the job."
The Crown
"Loving her."
The Crown
"Protecting her."
The Crown
"Of course, you'll miss your career."
The Crown
"But doing this for her, doing this for me..."
The Crown
"there may be no greater act of patriotism."
The Crown
"I think so."
The Crown
"-[men talking] -[dogs bark]"
The Crown
"I..."
The Crown
"I think they'd have preferred a nice, pink-faced marquis"
The Crown
"Are you sure you wouldn't have preferred one of those?"
The Crown
"You think I can change my mind after all that?"
The Crown
"and..."
The Crown
"[man 2] It's a royal wedding, not a campaign trail."
The Crown
"He's outrageous."
The Crown
"No, no."
