I really feel sorry for Margaret For she had made Peter her target. If King George was alive, the marriage would thrive. But the Queen treated him like a carpet.

Actually Ben Miles would’ve been a better George VI. He has the hair a little more similar, he’s a bit closer in age, to how old George VI was in 1945-47, he has a thinner frame and slightly smaller head than Jared Harris does, Jared Harris has quite a big or average sized head and is big boned, George VI had a quite small head and was rather thin. Still Jared Harris did a rather good job, a very talented actor.

From this scene alone, it’s very easy to see why Peter Townshend fell in love with Margaret. She’s very much her father’s daughter, limericks included. Peter was the only one who could calm King George in a difficult moment. Margaret later described Peter as “my sun, my water”, showing how he brought a similar calm to her life. It’s all the more reason Margaret and Peter should’ve been allowed to stay together.

It's pretty amazing to consider that Queen Elizabeth II lost her father (King George VI - played here by the awesome Jared Harris), her grandmother and her sister all to lung cancer due to their heavy smoking habits. When he married Elizabeth in 1947 at the age of 26, Prince Phillip had to give up smoking as one of her hard conditions to marrying him - he may have found it emasculating at the time. He lived another 73 healthy years with her after that. He didn't know it at the time, but she saved his life!
