    No mention of the Brazilian aquamarines?? That gift was so appreciated by the Queen that she had matching pieces made, and this documentary skipped them??

    The gems flow uphill; we know what flows downhill.

    "Mysterious circumstances" is a funny way of saying, we stole them from you so I'm not going to wear them in front of you.

    I desperately missed the great jewelry at the coronation of King Charles. I really did not understand seeing Princess Catherine in the headpiece she wore. She was beautiful, but the effect was honestly less splendid and felt less significant. To me, the most wonderful thing of the coronation was the tolling of the bells! I was extremely disappointed in the way that Harry acted. I’d never thought of him as a party pooper before. Thanks for showing all this gorgeous jewelry! Very uplifting! Very beautiful! ❤️❤️❤️

    Not all gems were colonized , most were gifts and other were bought by the reigning monarch

    I would love to have a tiara or any of those jewelry that the queen had! I wouldn't care which one that I would like to have and to wear, because they are all so beautiful, gorgeous and expensive! But I would have to be a royal and I would never get to be one but I could just dream of having one!👑

    This is about the most tone-deaf special on the British Royals that I've ever seen.

      I've become atuned to a certain style of voice and intonation. It screams Meghan Markle kind of deception on it's self-serving way...ICK CLICK!

      Tone deaf? They’re historical pieces. This is a channel dedicated to history lol.
      It’s possibly tone deaf if you believe something like this shouldn’t ever be discussed solely because there are other more important things going on in the world, but again, this is history after all. Not all videos about history _has_ to be about devastation, death, great achievements, struggles, war, etc. … more often than not, a lot of it is rather mundane - just like this topic, but it’s a history related topic nonetheless discussing pieces that do have historical value to them considering their relation to the royal family dating back several centuries.
      I find it rather interesting considering these are pieces I’ll never own, touch, or see in person, but it’s still pretty neat to learn about. Is it information I can use in my daily life? No, but the majority of videos on UA-cam would fit that bill.
      Some people like learning about pretentious shit that’s useless to the common pleb. You’re not forced to watch it lol.

    Funny how Diana looks more regal than any of them .

      Are you talking about the Diana who died 26 years ago, or is there a Diana on your street that you think looks quite good?

      Let her rest in Peace. Not exhumed every 5 minutes to fulfil some nostalgic indulgence by a public using her to reanimate a long gone dream.

    It's not controversial to me. But, then again, I'm not a post-colonial narcissist who has abandoned logic for whining.

      Bold words coming from someone who has abandoned logic to find documentaries on UA-cam to get mad at. 🤨
