@@RichardTClark396 Indeed! From what I was just reading though, Richard, apparently this was only true to a certain extent. Apparently, there were a number of other factors which were responsible for the failure as well. Apparently, quote:" the failure was also caused by poor planning & the determination to pursue the campaign, the complicity & decisions of the War Cabinet at that time, as well as, the determination of the Ottoman forces and the Geography of the Region. So, it seems that, once again, 'tis true that, no one stands alone! Indeed! Blessings to you!

As we experienced the late Queen’s reign, we can say that Churchill would have been delighted to know that “child” would become one of most beloved monarchs, and he played a crucial role to her destiny.

[@cynthiaalver]

I recommend a book entitled HERO OF THE EMPIRE by Candice Millard. It covers Churchill's early life, his beginnings in politics and his involvement in the Boer war, his capture and imprisonment by the Boers and his courageous escape and flight behind enemy lines to Portuguese East Africa. We're all pretty familiar with his later years but this is a part of his life that I hadn't known much about. Great book!

[@kyleethekelt]

Sorry to say I think it may have been an AI voice. There are some strange and interesting mispronunciations. She says 'revered' as if it rhymes with 'severed/. Then she follows up by heavily accenting the e in 'strategist'. I have never heard either word pronounced in that way. Then there is the very evenness of the narration. I would love to be proven wrong.

[@empice2k]

** BREAKING NEWS ** It was Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, that brought the United States into the war and not then Princess Elizabeth’s speech on the BBC radio.

Of course. That was a silly thing for them to imply. Although I'm sure the young princess speech was very supportive to the British children evacuees around the world maybe including young Americans.

I was lucky enough to be born in 1951 so during my lifetime SIR. WINSTON S. CHURCHILL was prime minister. My father was born on Madeira Island, Portugal in 1915 and Churchill would spend many hours on Madeira painting! I have been to the resturant in Camara Del Lobos on Madeira. Well worth the visit. SIR. WINSTON has been one of my life’s heroes, even if he really didn’t like women. I also love the stories about Churchill’s determination to land with the troops onto the beaches of Normandy on D-DAY until the KING GEORGE VI has to tell him if he was going then the king would have to go as well. Naturally-- Churchill was persuaded not to go to protect the king. I also love the stories about how Churchill would try to get to the rooftops in order to witness the bombing of London by the Luftwaffe totally disregarding the danger to himself. The only person who had ANY INFLUENCE upon Churchill was his wife Clementine and mostly he did exactly what he wanted to do.

Roosevelt wanted to enter the war but our Congress said NO. The USA didn’t enter the war until the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor. However the USA only declared war on Japan, but because Germany was an Allie of Japan they declared war on the USA leaving the USA no choice but to reciprocate. Which is we finally entered both the war in Europe and the war in the Pacific.

Winston Churchill was also related to Diana Spencer , I didn't realize that until last week. I believe God put Bertie on the Throne because God is in charge of everything. Mary his mother never forgave David for Abdicating but at the same time admitted to Elizabeth to Rule is a calling from God , so when Mary of Teck was pleading with David to consider Bertie's unpreparedness for King not to mention his health issues, I think Mary was pleading not as a Queen but as a mother in that moment, and as it went bertie had a short reign and his wife Elizabeth ( the queen mother) has been said to have smacked David across the face saying " You killed him, your to blame for this".

[@suzanneterrey4499]

I absolutely admire Churchill and all that he stood for, but there's one area that disturbs me about his influence on the Queen and that is how Princess Margaret and Townsend's romance got throttled. I know the Queen Mother had her nasty hand in the background of all of this but I feel that the pressure by both Churchill and the Queen Mother was enough to influence the Queen to view their marriage in a negative light. I have never been fond of the spoiled Princess Margaret, but the pressure that was put to her to give him up was horrendous and unwarranted. The Queen was put in an untenable position and she was too new at the job to stand up to the both of them which I'm sure she would have done if it had happened later in her reign.

It was mainly the Church, the Archbishop of Canterbury to be exact. Churchill and the Queen Mum had little to do with it.

British War Cabinet Crisis May 26 - 28th 1940 - When the BEF were trapped at Dunkirk the initial estimate was that only 45,000 could be evacuated . France was nearly defeated , the Americans were maintaining their position of isolationism , and the Soviets had a non aggression pact with Hitler . Under these conditions , Lord Halifax was baited into meeting with the Italian Ambassador , who offered to mediate a peace agreement with Hitler . What followed over the next few days were a series of heated meetings . Facing the loss of much of the BEF , Lord Halifax wanted to explore negotiating terms with Hitler . Churchill said Hitler never honoured any agreement and would turn Britain into a slave state . In the end , Churchill did an end round on Halifax and was able to persuade the 25 member outer Cabinet to keep fighting . Had Churchill not been able to persuade the cabinet to keep fighting , Hitler would have released a much stronger Wehrmacht on the Soviets . Regardless of who won , either the Nazi's or Soviet's would have ruled nearly all of Europe , North Africa , the Middle East and Russia . The world would have become a different place . For this reason , the War Cabinet Crisis is one of the defining moments of the 20th Century . .

[@MLA56]

We Americans with senses of history understand there no CLEAR delineation between our countries and histories. First time I met the Queen (when I was in a Diplomatic position as a senior US Army officer) she said, "Colonel, I understand we're distant cousins." Which is true, since I'm a direct descendant of Henry VII of England and James V of Scotland. I was amazed someone had done that much research on me! However, I somehow maintained my poise and said, "Yes, Ma'am. Over 400 years ago. I'm not exactly a close relation." Then with her famous humor she said, "Well, if your forebears had remained, you'd no doubt still have a Peerage. But they didn't, and now you're an American and out of luck!" As is customary, however, she DID give me an honorary OBE when I left. It's not much in the big scheme of things, but one of many memories I'm fortunate to have. I'm Anglican/Episcopalian, and on the Sunday after her passing, our organist played,"I Vow To Thee, My Country" during the Eucharist. In her honor, that day, for the first time (and probably only time ever,) I wore the miniature "court-mounted" OBE and a British decoration I'd received after the Gulf War in her memory. I received quite a few awards and decorations in my life, but I think I've only felt "proud" of wearing any of them on that single occasion.

Here we go again ..”Queen of England” … You would think that Royalty TV could get that correct …..!

The spanish translation is terrible. Just at the very beginning, the lady narrator says that George VI died, and that Princess Elizabeth, barely over 20, had to assume her role as Queen and combat the nazis. The truth is that George VI died in 1952, 7 years after WW2 was over.

Sweet puppies! Whoever chose background music got it confused with music that unconsciously makes one look for gum to chew, or perhaps broken glass. I'm at 14:30 right now and I am going to pause to eat a little blue pill. It is after 1600, so I need not justify the G&T to wash it down with.

I gave the doco a thumbs up just 'cuz my Mom was such a fan of Elizabeth. Mom never would brag it up, but I knew it was because she secretly thought they were sisters in some way. They were born on the same day in 1926. I miss Q Liz. I always thought of her as a dotty sort-of Aunt to me.

Nobody now or in the past could talk as well as Winston Churchill. After all he was half American.

To John Keller: Which was his relation with América? I've got two boocks from him: "Se cierne la tormenta" and "Su hora más gloriosa" in Spanish translation

The "looming nazi threat" was well past when Elizabeth was "thrust into the role of queen of England."
