[@michelmoutinho]

“And as a queen of england” haha she’ll always be my queen ❤️😅

[@CarTa3]

Gosh, she's fantastic. I also loved the fact that she shouted out Dick van Dyke about his accent because I've always felt bad that people have made fun of him about that for the past 50 years. I can't yet call her one of the greatest actresses of our time because other than "The Crown" she hasn't done too much work that people have seen, but I can't wait to watch her career and see what else she does, because who knows, maybe someday she will be one of the greatest.

[@feuille2niggle]

@cartergirl3of3, she played a fantastic Diana Cavendish in "Breathe", did you have an opportunity to watch this film ?

[@CarTa3]

I have not, but I will be sure to look into it. Thanks!

[@feuille2niggle]

Apart from being so talented she also seems to be a really nice person. You might like another youtube video with her, under the title " Claire Foy is Awe-Struck By Beauty " ;)

[@ellengregory8002]

Nice to know she's not just a great actor but also a kind person.

[@alex0589]

Nothing but respect for MY queen. (sorry, transatlantic joke)

[@nelllorimer86]

She’s so frickin CUTE OH MY LORD AGH 😍😆😆

[@kristopher1799]

She was ROBBED on Emmy night, by that swearing Scientologist!! Claire should have won!!!!!

[@ellengregory8002]

Kristopher Kaun She won an Emmy in 2018. Sorry she didn't win every single award in the world so that you could finally be happy. And you're really criticizing an actress for swearing? Clearly you've never spent any time in the UK.

[@IternalMuser]

Who are you talking about?

[@fookadook]

Elizabeth Moss is great imo. We’re lucky to have them both! Claire won one the next year so it all evened out in the end.

[@marshmart965]

She is so humble, yet talented...I watched her years ago, on Little Dorrit, and I searched it recently by watching the series on Brit Box. But I haven't watched The Crown yet until I really had a time and finishing two seasons in 1.5 weeks. Amazing, her acting is accurate and incredible.

[@libriansana8562]

Oh God.. Why do they look like they're still in their roles?? Ahh i love it

[@ChateauJoanne]

The new Lisbeth, ladies and gents. Wow, just, wow.

[@tiffanymarieelizabeth]

A C Lilibeth

[@louise-yo7kz]

A C She will do great. A challenging role

[@yokie52]

You can tell the dress is tickling her...

[@michaels5928]

I missed her on Season 3. But they're all great.

[@567raman]

She was phenomenal. Loved her.

[@TheJolieDepp]

Talented and cute.

[@ต่อให้หมด-ศ3ซ]

You will always be my queen, even when I'm in Thailand.🇬🇧🇹🇭👑♥️

[@spencerburrows624]

That dress is incredible! I love it and thank you for taking a risk. Very campy and very fashionable.

[@plasmichoneytrip]

I love that BAFTA is an award show that acts like one than American award shows which are lately self-serving, borderline hostile, and self-righteous.

[@ellengregory8002]

Ricca Shaps IOW American award shows are very much like your comment😎

[@scottmead854]

Contrast this with American award show acceptance speeches... "I am Jesus Christ" cries "Save the environment" then flies off in a private jet

[@jejedesalpes7886]

I haven't seen "The Crown" yet, but I can say I loved her in the very underrated tv-series "The Promise", an excellent drama by Peter Kosminsky.

[@almiranara]

she's the cutest omg love her so much

[@kaikaimanga]

OHHH SHE SO ADORABLE 👁️👁️

[@luh573]

She is soooo adorable! Lovely speech ❤

[@aquablushgirl]

She is so fucking lovely and talented.

[@choudanny1715]

*The Crown MUST Win* ✌🏻✌🏻

[@commodorekitty]

I’ve loved her since Upstairs Downstairs. You’re just fantastic, Claire! 💖

[@robertgrey5993]

Please fill me in. What part did she play in U -D?

[@paolovid]

3:00 Claire's future movie husband, looking very happy.

[@liquidsnakeckw]

awww, she is so cute.

[@jorgeperezcarrasco8189]

Is my Queen, Is my Majestad, Long Live The Queen, God Save The Queen

[@adelaferreira4575]

I love the British actors and actresses ,but Claire Foy is on a league of her own,like John said she says more with her eyes then words could ever do ,she was amazing in the Crown and in other projects she has done ,big fan !

[@gjddavey7340]

She was soo nervous 🥺

[@hyoyeonsblondehair4315]

I was sad that she won't play the Queen in the upcoming season of The Crown, but upon finding out it was Olivia Colman who will replace her I am at ease now. Claire has made her name shine brighter with her amazing acting on the two seasons she had spent in The Crown, and with that too I feel relaxed and look forward to her other works from now on.

[@Cloudbee89]

She is so lovely! I adore her!

[@Blessings1111]

❤

[@faizaniftikhar8732]

The dress Though! 🤩

[@madusaia]

Claire ❤️❤️

[@plasmichoneytrip]

Dress is so cute. Only she can pull it off.

[@cush6827]

What kind of bird did she kill and try to hide in her dress?

[@colinthedogfromspaced9365]

Up there with Mirren

[@melodygardiano786]

I miss her in the crown 👑

[@xxIluvyouguysxx]

She’s amazing

[@mikeporter3729]

Such a great actress I love her

[@justinesmith1093]

How did she not thank matt smith lol

[@diparaditz]

People NEED to see her in Wolf Hall as Anna Bolena.

[@pinklavender12]

Amazing actress.

[@rohitbrown2667]

Great acting wonderfully deserved by her but the clothes was fucked up

[@Giulia-om2gl]

She's gorgeous

[@patstokes3615]

Well she turned out to be a ditz if I every saw on. And she isn't kidding that she needed someone to put words in her mouth and someone to direct her.

[@suebayliss1897]

That dress is hideous.

[@CarTa3]

You know what I find incredibly weird? America has the BAFTAS, a BRITISH award show, in America, where they will only give awards to Brits. They also give awards to "foreigners" at the Oscars, Golden Globes, Grammys, Tonys, pretty much any award show, but you never see other countries giving awards to outsiders, let alone Americans. Kristen Stewart was the first person to win a French Oscar in 2015 (how she did that with her talent less self, I will never understand, but that's beside the point). I know America is the center of the film industry and so it makes sense for their award-giving to be more widespread, but it kind of irks me that we extend our hand out to foreigners at these award shows and they don't do the same. I'm not even ultra-American either, it's just...irksome.

[@ellengregory8002]

cartergirl3of3 I think some people view it in a similar way to the Black Entertainment Television Awards. Sort of like Whites/Americans already have enough awards and they haven't included us enough in the past so we'll give out our own and they're not invited. Not saying I necessarily agree with the sentiment btw. There are also the Golden Globes, which are given by the Hollywood Foreign Press...so no Americans can vote. They're notoriously easy to buy though.

[@hayaatsalleh4921]

somehow her voice sounds like emily blunt... ❤️ them both 😁

[@mayalarkins1334]

They both just have typical English accents.

[@kitty6720]

She is absolutely lovely!

[@carrrexx7190]

Charming ❤

[@squattingheads]

It’s scary how similar she looks to my tiny ex gf.
