I was shocked. Was not expecting that hahhaha

coffee came out my nose lmao

I hope he got paid extra for that joke.

That had to be the most British explanation I’ve ever heard

Fourthgirl I have seen the set organisers spraying powdered deodorant on to metal to dull the shine for that reason.

Certainly a Netflix production has enough money to make the silver more silver like in post production. That's no excuse.

@@jec222 At the end of the day I don't really think any network is going to fund money into enhancing silver that a small population actually pay attention to. They'll be saving that money for all the extras in the large crowd scenes where they have to pay everyone on set.

Very cool.

Very interesting, thank you for this tidbit.

it's tiaras after six (if you're married) :))

In the US...Mammy told Scarlet O'Hara that she couldn't show her bosoms before 3 O'clock.

@@phtevlin HAHAHAHA!! Mammy was right!

You see him sitting on the bollard in the parking lot eating his hoagie with the paper spread out on his lap, that is quite frankly heinous - a parking lot hoagie is properly eaten over the rubbish bins with the paper spread out across it. And you see a gatorade along with the hoagie - this would simply not be done. Coffee, iced tea (Arctic Splash if you're in Port Richmond) yes. Gatorade, no.

@@davidwilds8647 correct.

CC Netflix

Yes. He feels so clean and relaxing 😅

Totally agree.

Yesss plss🙌🏼

Yes!!!!

What complete nonsense. The queen’s staff and the queen herself don’t get this stuff wrong. And your reference to guards is a complete joke. They’re called liveried servants. HM’s guards are big chaps with big guns and distinctive headgear. They don’t pour tea.

@@davidcockayne3381 I'm aware of the difference between the Queens Guard and Footmen. At the very beginning of this scene Jackie Kennedy almost gets run over by the Queens Guard. You should keep in mind that this is from a television show. Are liberties taken? Of course. But of you take it in context with the tone of the scene it makes a lot more sense.

The point of this video is to show correct and incorrect etiquette, NOT to explain a scene. Regardless of how you feel about a person, if she is a guest, you cannot be impolite. Even if the details of this scene were all deliberate to show what is happening, the point remains that incorrect etiquette was shown.

@@krdiaz8026 I agree. The etiquette is incorrect. I just feel like context is important as well, so you don't leave thus video thinking the Crown is a terribly made show with no regards to the truth.

@@krdiaz8026 Absolutely. It seems to be a lesson we have largely lost in the West, especially in the Anglo-Saxon world. Etiquette demonstrates politeness and politeness demonstrates a fundamental respect for the other person.

No butter. It’s clotted cream, and then jam.

that was some angry buttering.

The real queen would never allow herself to show her agitation that blatantly. So it didn't feel authentic at all.

@@irmar Who cares about how the Queen would behave in reality ? It’s a drama series, it’s meant to exagerate things.

Because they don't care about anything that doesn't boost audience figures.

Because Queen disapproved of his etiquettes 🤪🤪🤪🤪😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅

genlee that’s his resume

@@edronc2007 actually they put a lot of thought into the details that the main audience may not really notice, just because they didn’t hire this guy doesn’t mean they don’t put lol he's not the only consultant in the world. When analyzing etiquette it is important to take context and symbolism into account, what this meant in the relationship of one character to the other, these things are consciously taken into consideration

@@jessica5497 Well Netflix obviously doesnt care about correctness. Manners and etiquette are very important - it is courtesy; something that appears to be lacking at times these days.

Lol loved this comment

Maybe that is how posh people argue...Get the milk first..The rest have Gerry Springer Lol

That's what I thought when I saw the food. It looked so dry and tough even....also she cuts it almost aggressively. This also happens when she's pouring other stuff on the plate...I thought it had to be symbolisms...

That’s what vulgar people would do. If you have class, you do the exact opposite. Maximum propriety and maximum formality. It show’s who’s in control.

@@davidcockayne3381 I m really sorry I swear I thought it was a nickname.. nowadays everybody has one on youtube. In fact I will erase it. Believe me, my comment was out of ignorance.

@@lugm1034 Not at all, and very decent of you to say so. Must say, I've had much worse. As for the name it was a medieval term for a Utopia where cakes (Kuchen) grew on tress, and thus a place of luxurious living. It was apparently used to describe idle dreamers, or as I like to think of us, profound philosophers.

Friend of Dorothy. Lmao.🤣

Was literally going to comment this as I read yours 😂

He's fabulous!

Thank you. -my comment reflected this.

@@juliehock6059 me to.

That is how I do it also, because I like jam and it slides off the clotted cream otherwise.

Yes, Cream last. Far less messy!!

And the old “correct way to eat a scone” - slathering the cream on first - oh dear! Or is that the Cornish way and not the Devon way??

@@juliehock6059 I think cream on first is the Devonshire way and jam first is Cornwall. But I could be wrong!

@@nicolahickman5551 exactly, as per my comment.

I am an ordinary working class person and I would always break, not slice my scone!

Lol

HM would have NEVER "shown off".

@@edronc2007 In fact, she would in the context of this scene and the scenes before. It comes after Mrs Kennedy insulted Buckingham Palace and called it drab. In the scene directly before this, The Queen pulled out all of the stops to make sure there was an abundance of staff and guards in Windsor.

@@edronc2007 You're not even British. Shutup

I can’t imagine the Queen (the real one) ever feeling the need to show off. 😄

c mon you dont need to say Her Majesty.. we all know that queens and kings don´t exist, really. It´s a crazy convention in XXI century -and an expensive one for the citizens of some European countries

'Less' you make a mistake...? I shall believe that you did of course write 'lest' and blame the bizarre whims of autocorrect for the schoolboy error ;)

You cant be serious 🙄

With all of those detailed rules of etiquette, why would anyone join the British for tea? I always thought that the purpose for etiquette rules was to help make company feel comfortable by understanding what behavior is expected. I guess I was wrong. No one outside of British royalty would feel welcome in that demanding atmosphere.

my 93 year old mother could not stand Downtown Abbey because she thought it was so unrealistic and rules and etiquette disregarded or poorly portrayed. She loves The Crown though. Don't we all

I agree - it took place in the early '60's too - charger plates were common.

Common but not correct in a royal household !

@@joantollerton9905 Common as in many - aristocratic families used charger plates, that's why they were made. 'Common' folk often used newspaper, not tablecloths.

@@pamjudge9691 but not for afternoon tea, surely! Charger plates are used at a several courses meal.

What can we say, it's simply not something we do? 😅

😂

As American even I know good manners are not used to degrade others.

@@jasonmack2569 Precisely. Not knowing arcane rules from a little island a few thousand miles away does not make one rude.

@@menotyou4289 I was merely trying to be self-deprecating because I could only imagine how frightened this guy would be if ever he sees me at a high tea xD

Of course! They even prepared some triangle-shaped sandwiches on purpose right???

Or they do and this is just one person's point of view and maybe its a TV drama so it doesn't matter anyway? 😂😂

I think it's mostly because absolute majority of viewers know fuck all about Royal Etiquette and its intricacies, therefore such small details, while important and somewhat integral to the proper representation of the character, may simply go over our heads. Even if the consultant was there, I doubt it would make the difference for the audience. At least for the majority.

A Jolly Wanker it's NOT just Royal etiquette... it's for all.

they actually do he the guy that they got used to work in the palace

@@seanjonesy180 Yeah but they don’t want it to be inaccurate or overdramatized, which would not be good for the royals

Spreading the what ? It's clotted cream how dare you

@@Roddie62 off with her head!

@@Roddie62 How can you tell?

I agree that these things were done to show the tension. But they don't feel true to character. The real queen would have tried her best to be polite, even if glacially polite. It's part of her persona, and if you get that wrong, then what's the point to get the feeling of the scene right?

ive seen recs for jam then cream so that you can taste the cream more. cream then jam kinda overpowers the cream so they say.

I remembered the same about the Queen. Personally, I find that a bit odd, but then again I’m a ‘just jam’ person.

Republicanism can't come too soon.

It’s the age old debate but should be cream then jam (cream is the butter) as it’s Devonshire cream tea, Cornwall can keep the pasties.

Can't abide cream at all, it was always butter on the scones at home.

Her life is so regimented and rigid I don't know how she does it.

She was born into it. It’s not like she has to force it. For her it comes out naturally just as it is for you to drink water from a glass instead of a bowl or holding a fork.

@@FFSnotagain yes that's true. Her life has ALWAYS been so rigid. That's probably why they love going to Balmoral.

Always amuses me when people say regarding the Queen” She can’t do what she likes in the simplest of ways”!!!To her this is simple!This is how she was taught & raised so it is simple for her! Also we all have rules for want of a better word in our own homes don’t we? Most times they have become such a way of life we don’t even notice them anymore! I am no snob or etiquette expert but if you come to dine at my home I will have a tablecloth on the table the table will be set & I always use real napkins. Sone people have accused me of being posh no it’s not posh it’s the way I choose to live in my own home. Oh & if you notice the Queen dos not inflict her way of doing things on her guest because that would be rude & make her guest uncomfortable but in the big things yes there are standards in the Royal home just like we have in our own homes which of course is our right!!!!

Following rules of etiquette at table wouldn’t be weird or objectionable to the Queen. It’s just her life, the way she has always known it. It would be no different to her than the habits we have in our own lives.

I doubt very much that Her Majesty would allow her annoyance at Jackie to make her forget her own standards.

@@Historian212 well duh, but this is still a show that uses dramatization for stuff sooooo again this scene makes sense with the show lol

You can find out what it was Diana was learning by looking up order of precedence.

@@jays2877 I did find it rather hysterical that the Queen Mother was sitting on a settee and waiting, I think for the phone call confirming Charles had proposed to Diana and a mouse ran across a rug and disappeared under a sideboard 🤣🤣

Which was entirely fictional because Diana already must have her etiquette lessons in her childhood because she was from aristocratic family.

Etiquette is a waste of time in the world of technology. Do things swiftly and efficiently, that's what matters.

@@edenassos Why does it matter? Etiquette is about doing things in a slower way to get away from the fast pace of the outside world. The reason etiquette has dwindled, or more accurately has died in the lower classes, is because people don't know how to slow down

@@edenassos i don't think that the problem is the whole idea of ettiquette. i think it's just that what we think of as "good" etiquette is old fashioned when really times have changed and the "proper" way to behave has changed too. It isn't described in Victorian books because just as they didn't have email and social media their etiquette responded to a different society and environment. there is no point doing things "properly" if it just makes things more difficult and makes people uncomfortable

@@edenassos Perhaps in your world, but eating like a lout with mouth open, and feet on the table isnt attractive at all - regardless of technology.

@@juliehock6059 That's pretty obvious, isn't it? It goes without saying you don't put your leg on the dinner table, I'm talking about the over-the-top ones.

@Sheila English my late mother also taught us. We certainly learned to always break a scone, never to cut it.

💯💯💯

This is because Brits worry about stupid stuff and think they’re better than everyone else.

Hahahahha

Wow not the time to boast lol

@@stevesteve5804 No, it's actually because we have class.

He could do a vid on how to pronounce some words - so non-U to get it wrong :D
