- It's November 22, 1963, and news of President Kennedy being shot has reached the Queen (Claire Foy), who, upon hearing the news, is glued to the radio for the latest information. So much emotion is evoked without speaking, just pure brilliance at the hand of Ms. Foy. When she does speak her care, concern and observations of Mrs. Kennedy (Jodi Balfour) are not be missed.

Were you alive when this happened? Do you remember where you were?
I was 11, in the 6th grade, in Michigan. Our teacher was called out of class, came back about 15 minutes later, said the president had been shot, then said a prayer. He went back out of the room later, and the class remained silent the entire time he was gone. When he came back, he said the president had died and dismissed class for the rest of the day. As I walked home from school, the women of the neighborhood gathered in their yard's talking and crying over fences.
I was 4 years old. I was happily working on a hole with my toy earthmover when my sister tried to drag me inside to listen to the radio. I was unmoved and didn't know who Kennedy was.
I was in 3rd grade catholic school. I remember the nuns crying.
Yes, junior high school. I’ll never forget that day or the days that followed 😢
I was 11 at the time, and never heard the news in school. Once I got home, my mom said come listen to the radio, and I heard members of Congress praying and saying that Kennedy was dead.
Jackie said the reason she didn’t change, was to show the world what was done to her husband, the president.
Yes. “Let them see what they have done.”
That line about believing yourself to be unhappy and then real unhappiness comes along to overide that feeling is so true.
I used to ask my mom about this day. She was 10, and she would recount the day for me. Now I get asked about 9/11. It's crazy how these events mark a generation.
I remember being angry that daytime TV programming was taken over by some long, boring news account when I was seven years old.
I remember 11/22/63 very well indeed. It was God awful, an impossible tragedy.
There's a small time error in how this scene was filmed. JFK was shot around 1230pm in Dallas which was 630pm in the UK. In late November the sun sets just after 5pm in the UK. The Queen wouldn't have been working on that fallen tree after sunset. She probably would have been sitting down to supper.
Ty I was just thinking that.
You sound like Poirot.
@@MsLogjam A high compliment.
@@chancellorjake Aye.
Just to say it’s genuinely good to see folk out there who value the truth. So many lies and half-truths everywhere. So facts are even more important.
I was a Junior in High School, in German class. The announcement came across the classroom speaker and after a moment of stunned silence, most of the girls in the room began weeping. I don't remember much of the remaining day, though I know we were all released early to go home. I still remember the funeral, with Jackie in black and John John saluting as his Father's casket passed by.
I had a similar experience with 9/11.
It was the first time in my life, that my peaceful, 'normal' life was truly shaken up and I will never forget the shock and horror I felt.
Not to be rude I'm just curious why would Germany care about what happens to the US president? More so curious because students started crying. Like I'm not saying I wouldn't feel sadness for the people if someone from another country died but to cry over it.. probably not.
@@QueenMizu
Well.... teenagers. You know? They are door slamming, the world is gonna end over a break up and I HATE you for making rules and sticking to them bags of hormones during that time. Or some of them, at least. I wasn't the overly dramatic kind myself, but some just are.
And you gotta consider, that Germany had a very positive image of America at that time. We got treated exceedingly graciously after WW2 - especially by the Americans. It's not something, that's very much on people's radar these days, but we literally owe the fact that Germany even still exists and made a fast economic comeback to the fact, that that was granted to us and supported by the Marshall Plan. Admittedly, so we wouldn't fall into the hands of the Communist, not out of sheer good will, but still.
People back then still looked up to America as the rightful 'leader of the free world'. Not to mention, that everything cool and new and exciting came from America. Movies, music, fashion...
Kennedy was much more to people than just some president of a foreign country. People idolized him, even outside of the USA.
@@QueenMizu American High School. German Language Class.
@QueenMizu Americans and Canadians stayed in Germany after the war to rebuild.
It was deliberate ,Jackie wanted people to see what was done to her husband and never forget it ,I was a little girl when this happened and I could never forget the gravity of it ,so much sadness from the news and people comments !
I don’t know about that, but this and perhaps the moon landing spring forth peak conspiracy theories, so nothing new here; Chappaquiddick incident leaves lots of answers we may never get. The Kennedy’s had their way with women though, to say the least.
This might be the most stupid, uneducated comment I’ve ever read in my life. There’s countless amounts of historic records, video footage and personal accounts proving what you said was made up in thin air. You sound like a teenage girl making shit up for attention
So why didn't she ever say anything about it in later years?
@@josephshields2922 Because she was a very private person, would you want to relive that?
I was 8. I remember it, in detail, to this day.
Such a powerful moment. I was 13 years old when they let out classes at my high school. We were told the President was dead and little else. I will never forget this day.
I was in 3rd grade at a Catholic school. The nuns ran through the hallways screaming and hysterical. We were all made to kneel on the floor for what seemed like hours while our teacher, Sister Somethingorother, said the rosary over and over again. We had the year before been through the Cuban missile crisis where JFK made the nation aware of the possibility of nuclear war at any time. Twice in two years I witnessed my mother weeping for the fate of her children. It was a trauma in my childhood I'll never forget.
"I'm sorry, your majesty. But there is a lovely new programme debuting tomorrow about a time-traveler with a police box."
And of course, Matt Smith starred in that show.
I remember watching that too. It was a bit boring until they introduced the Daleks.
@@KebabMusicLtdI remember thinking in the 70s that the Daleks were just large shop vacuums with toilet plungers for weapons. And that someone occasionally flashed the lights on and off and set off sparklers or something, and pretended the Daleks did it all. I was so not impressed. 😂
I remember thinking all it would take to disable the Daleks would be to install ragged carpeting, so that their castor wheels would get caught up on the ravelings. I wanted to like Doctor Who, but I just couldn't get into it in the 70s & 80s. Also, the doctor seemed to always be fighting a ferocious cold or allergies. Despite having this enormous scarf which didn't seem to be doing him an atom of good, lol. I later became a fan of the tenth doctor. Till it all went Woketarded in the past few years.
I remember this day vividly. I was ten years old and in the fourth grade. I had been so excited, as my mother had given birth to my sister the day before. Our class had just returned from lunch when another teacher came in and whispered something to my teacher. They both started crying. Then the principal broadcast Walter Cronkite over the PA system while we listened to the updates. It was decided that all the schools in our district would dismiss early and we were sent home. It was so quiet on the bus, you could've heard a pin drop.
My sister was born only days before. I thought how lucky to be an infant and not have to go through such unhappiness.
This nightmare has never left me. The whole nation was never the same after it.
And our government tried to do ' let it happen' another one on Trump .
JFK was such a moron for riding in an open car like that on a known route. It was like he was daring someone to shoot him.
My dad was just an infant and my mom wasn't born yet, but my late grandpa had very vivid memories of where he was when he learned the news. He worked for the Department of Energy at the Nevada Test Site (NTS). He was a Superintendent at the time, so he was way out in Area 14 when the call came out over the radio. DOE ceased operations for the day and it was a madhouse getting thousands of workers back and accounted for at once.
We were abruptly sent home from grade school early, though we were not told why. In those days, there was no phone tree, they just booted you out and most mothers were at home. If not, one of your neighbors would just scoop you up until your parents showed.
"I don't wish to give offense when I suggest that this country should select a, uh, king or even a queen instead of a president. One isn't that quick to shoot a king or a queen. The majesty of royalty, you see."

You been talking about the Queen again, Bob? On Independence Day?
No thanks, we’ve already got Donald Trump who’s planning to be a dictator from day one.
That sentiment conveniently overlooks the fact that there were seven assassination attempts on Queen Victoria during her reign.
@@alexsmith4937 7 failed attempts over 63 years? US Presidents should be so lucky. 2 US Presidents were shot dead during her reign. 3 if we count McKinley who was shot dead in the last year of her reign.
The Queen served in the Auxiliary Territorial Service, a women's branch of the Royal Army in WW2. She was a truck driver and mechanic, so this scene of her driving the vehicle makes total sense. Also amusing was the story of her sporting the King of Saudi Arabia around during a state visit....the Saudis at the time forbade women from driving (not a bad call....I kid, I kid) and reportedly the King was nonplussed when the Queen took the wheel to sport him around whatever royal grounds they were on.
upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/23/Hrh_Princess_Elizabeth_in_the_Auxiliary_Territorial_Service%2C_April_1945_TR2832.jpg/330px-Hrh_Princess_Elizabeth_in_the_Auxiliary_Territorial_Service%2C_April_1945_TR2832.jpg
One would say that she did that with total knowledge of Saudi women's situation.
I heard she _really_ took him for a ride. Apparently she had quite the lead foot.
"The Saudis at the time forbade women from driving." At the time? They didn't make it legal for women to drive until about six years ago.
He was very plussed. Especially after Her Majesty gave him a good jostling on the ride.
My Grandmother told me that she was at lunch in elementary school when the principal walked in and told her class that President Kennedy had been shot in Dallas but the students didn’t pay much attention and when she got home her parents took her and her sister to a friends house to listen to their radio and talk when they got there they were told he was dead
My family and I watched his assassination live on TV. We sat there stunned before we all began to cry.
yep...
Actually it was evening - about 7 pm, by them, in November. So it would have been dark.
I was in third grade... They never announced things like that to the school children back then. I heard some older (high school) students talking about it on the way home on the bus. We all watched the news that night.
My momm was about 2 months pregnant with me at the time. It's scary knowing that so many of us know where we were when this tragedy happened, & still talk about it. :(
I always wondered what it was like in the royal household when this happened. I would have imagined it was akin to something like WWII starting. Shock and uncertainty of what's to come.
There's the thing about unhappiness. All it takes is for something worse to come along and then you realize it was actually happiness after all.
My mom says i was in her lap while she watched tv as it happened. I was born in march of 63
No one cares
@@dmoney8602You cared enough to comment.
It makes it sound like he was alive for a while after he was shot but he wasn't, it was half an hour
I was 5 and Kennedy's funeral is a core memory..i remember the riderless horse with backwards boots in the stirrups. and little JohnJohn's salute.
I was three weeks old and the world changed forever
Emmy winner
They literally removed the "Future king soundtrack" to avoid getting copyright
Timing seems off on this, presumably for dramatic reasons. Kennedy was shot at 12:30pm local time, which is 6:30pm in the UK, long after dark for late November.
It was evening in the UK when he was assassinated. I remember the TV newsflash. Also Elizabeth the Second was more than five months pregnant. Edward was born the following March.
00:37 I always put on a 3 piece suit and peaky blinders hat to do yard work
Well that was the fashion of working men back then
@@WarfightersWorkshop No it wasn't. Anyone on a worksite wearing a three-piece-suit was only there to bark out commands. Those guys never did a days work in their entire lives.
The young queen !!
Even the Queen mother looked young.
She was 37, which is not remarkably young.
@@roberthudson1959 everyone that is under 39 years old are considered as young because they are still in their youth 🤔🤔
I was five, growing up in London. My parents were watching tv and my mother cried. A man on the tv said 'a darkness is falling all over the world'. I went outside and looked, and came back and told them that it was ok, he was wrong and it was still light outside.
This made me chuckle over my tears reading these comments. The innocence of children is why humanity continues onward
I was a young child, possibly 4th grade so my memory of his death is very vague.
However I have a memory of his life that was first hand and one I remember to this day. President Kennedy visited San Diego, CA where I lived. His route was going near our elementary school so we were all taken out to line the route. With Secret Service positioned everywhere 5 feet or so, most kids had a hard time seeing anything. But I was the tallest in my class (I’m 5’10” today) and I wiggled my way to the front ending up next to a SS agent. He gave me a quick glance, a very brief smile and let me stay. The President’s motorcade came toward us and pulled to a stop before they would make a wide left turn down the street. I stared intently at JFK, somewhat fascinated but I wasn’t sure why. Then all of a sudden as though he felt my eyes on him, he turned his head and looked directly into my eyes. He didn’t look away quickly like I expected but held my gaze intently. Then a small smile crept onto his lips, almost flirtatious, and he gave me a private little wink and broke eye contact. The motorcade moved on.
Although I deplore men who are promiscuous, I have to admit that at that moment and for the rest of my life I understood why John F. Kennedy had little trouble coaxing women into his bed. Even in fourth grade I understood sexual attraction (to a certain degree) and there was something extremely adult about that look. Although I’m sorry he was killed, it’s a good thing we didn’t meet 10 years later because one or both of us would have been in big trouble.
That suit was made by the New York firm Chez Ninon, right?
An exact line for line Chanel copy, right?
Oliver Stone’s film JFK has me convinced that there was more than one shooter and that Lee Harvey Oswald was just what he said he was all along: a patsy. There is no way in hell that he could have pulled off those shots from his position with a big Texas live oak tree blocking his view.
Clay Shaw, Oswald und Ferry kannten sich vorher. Es gibt Fotos von davor.
Übrigens ist die Magic Bullet wohl doch Wahrheit weil Hartmunition, die Wunden und die rekonstruierten Sitzpositionen es möglich machten. Vielleicht hat Oswald diesen Schuss gesetzt. Aber dann niemals den Kopfschuss. Da war viel mehr, hundertprozentig ein Komplott.
My late husband was in the Air Force and had been shooting since he was 6. So he was extremely proficient and probably could have progressed to sniper qualification. He told me that he was extremely more advanced than Lee Harvey Oswald could ever be and even he couldn’t have made those killing shots from that location. But I’m a conspiracy theorist on a number of issues. I believe we’ll all know the truth someday.
A lot of the claims that Stone made were debunked years ago. He even admits that he used a great deal of artistic licence in the telling of his yawnfest.
Oswald had plenty of time to fire off three rounds as has been demonstrated numerous times now.
If there was a second, third or fourth shooter involved, we are still waiting for anyone to come up with a name...
Did you just cut that scene without the keeping the climax in the clip?!?
One of my favorite shows. Loved her in this role. Four years later I have a massive crush on Claire Foy 😅
Why did it take you four years to develop that crush?
Kennedy died at 7pm London time. I find it odd that the scene shows this at bedtime...
My dad was 7 at that time. And my mom was 2.
I was a baby, so I have no memories of it.
I'm not a fan of the show (sorry 😟) but when I saw the title for this video on my recommended page, I just had to see it badly.
And the very episode of Doctor Who broadcast the next day.
I was 3 when this happened
Well, where was she going?
What season and episode was this?
Walter Cronkite on the BBC?? Come on!
It was the end of Camelot. ❤️🩹
What are some other out of the blue tragedies that hit the nation? Here is what comes to the top of my head:
Pearl Harbor
JFK assassination
Space shuttle Challenger blowing up
Princess Di crash (UK)
9/11
She knew. She knew it was the state that did this
How did you come up with this?
@@malahammer the released Kennedy Files. And the fact that Jackie said "I want THEM to see what THEY did to Jack" when asked why she was still wearing the suit. The "she" I was referring to was Jackie Kennedy btw, not the Queen
@@fabulouschild2005 I completely agree. The Democratic powers did not like the direction Kennedy was leading the party, but he was way too popular to pull a "Biden" on him. No one liked LBJ, he was nothing but a double talk weasel who would have done whatever to gain power. It was LBJ who was pushing the "Great Society" not to help people, but to keep certain ethnic groups "in check". Kennedy's vision was to get Americans to better themselves by earning it, but seeing the potential in themselves. As he famously said we do these things "not because they are easy, but because they are hard; because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one we intend to win, and the others, too"
He wasn't just talking about going to the moon, he was talking about the American drive, the American spirit that can exist in each of us to grow for ourselves, for our families, our comunities and our nation. ALL AMERICANS. LBJ saw a certain population as less than human but was smart enough to know the best way to control that populatioin was to provide the easy way out, and that is what the American welfare system has turned into. Not assistance to those who truly cannot help themselves and protect them, but an easy life (or so thought) in exchange for freedoms. There is many ways to be a slave, some of them are hidden in the guise of "good intentions'.
Please… who are “they” or “them”-
If you know, prove it.
If it was not a lone gunman job, then it was almost certainly the mob. Kennedy had used them and discarded them, and they don’t like being used and discarded. He shouldn’t have dealt with them to begin with.
Everything else is guesswork. People throwing conspiratorial on-liners into YT comments like this, for likes, while actually knowing fuck all, is one of the many downsides to YT.
this was three and a half yearsbefore my birth, and I political views do not align with the current Democratic party. But Kennedy himself did not align himself with his party. No one is perfect, but even this man did what he could to put country before party. He is to be admired. Unfortuately after LBJ was sworn into office, the dismantling of America started and has reached a zenith today.
The Queen was correct. Not changing was deliberate. It was a statement. Of what happened to her husband, to let the world know the horror, and (personal opinion) to try to ruin a photo op for LBJ because she suspected this was not just an assassination, but a coup.
The 40 years after Reagan saw the greatest shift of wealth ($50 trillion) in the history of the world, from American workers and the middle class to the top 0.1%, which instead of being reinvested in American jobs went to international capital markets. The Uber-rich and corporations pay dramatically less tax than fairness would require. American workers list their unions, their pensions, their high quality public education, and have no hope of ever having universal health care, maternity leave. Now the GOP seek to end democracy and the rule of law. Quite a list of achievements.
So why did she not go public with her beliefs as RFK jr has?
Here is another hypothesis. The writers of The Crown, knowing that they have licence to write fiction about the Windsors, and knowing there are umpteen conspiracy theories about the JFK assassination, wrote this bit into the script, knowing full well that palace officials will never say boo.
Meanwhile conspiracy theory enthusiasts quote TV show fictions as proof that LBJ engineered a coup.
This is what passes in the USA as historical research.
@@josephshields2922shoot, where would she have ran to? Especially if she told real info, I’d imagine she would have been unalived too, and said was by her own hands
