The performance manages to be both hard-to-stomach and queasy-making

in season four of The Crown was keenly anticipated: Gillian Anderson is magnificent, Thatcher was an icon whichever way you cut it, cue popcorn, etc.

GillianA was fantastic ❤️

The Rain in Spain falls mainly on the jobless. ‘’Famously, she had two rounds of elocution lessons, one as a child in the 1930s, and one while she was leader of the opposition in the mid-1970s, aimed at getting her voice lower. She was said to have got it down by 46Hz,’’

Gillian was fantastic.

Absolutely brilliant!

Thatcher was scary!

I thought Gillian Anderson's performance of Thatcher made the latest series of The Crown thoroughly enjoyed it

In some ways it's a pity Peter Sutcliffe died. Always thought he'd have done a great Thatcher. He would've really understood the bitch.

Season 4 has disabused me of the notion that English royals are epitome of etiquette and civility.

I absolutely loved her performance 🎭

Whats happening to Xi

Made her seem more of a human than she actually was.

It’s labored, but she clearly understood Thatcher’s overall demeanor.

Scary is saying if mildly. The accent and mannerisms are more than I can stand! I push forward every time she comes on!

😅

Her performance was so good I almost forgot I was watching Netflix and got all my money out of the bank and move back in with my folks....too scary...

if Meryl Streep got an Oscar what do you give Gillian Anderson to say you did it better? 🤔

This is just like Orange Man Bad, its grotesque. But what can you expect from the cancel culture woke far left people. This Series is doing what they can to portrait The Royals and Conservatives as horrible as possible because the Left are morally superior.

I lived through the original - no thanks...

As a staunch Tory voter of a certain age, I have to admit it’s awfully difficult to get through an episode of the Crown without pleasuring oneself.

She’s great

Bit laboured, isn’t it? Sure the deep slow voice came later.

Is the Crown any good. I had a hard time getting through episode 1

Great perfomance !!! almoust as great as Merryl Streep did it

It certainly was unnerving. Gillian Anderson deserves an Emmy

It reminded me of why I hated her. She was also corrupt. Opposing sanctions Apartheid to protect her shit of a son markThatcher Thatcher

The quote about buses was Dame Shirley Porter, head of Westminster Council, but as Zoe says, like the Peter Mandelson guacamole joke, it just feels right.

Meryl Streep was better.

Exceptional👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Enervando? E o ódio mortal?

Dana Scully. I am a believer.

Scary hair

Mad times and mad people. Quite accurate imo.
