Viola Prettejohn, Joe Edgar, Beau Gadsdon, and Hamish Riddle in Ritz (2023)

Review by iansyard

Ritz

The Crown

4/10

Far From Great

Seeing HM Queen Elizabeth portrayed so many times in the past on both sides of the Atlantic for decades is nothing new, for good and bad. But this episode and the notion that young Princess Elizabeth on VE night found herself lured to the club basement by American G. Is to partake in some Jazz and Jitterbugging being flung round by a young black soldier whom she had to take a double look at as they past each other previously is open to serious suggestion. I'm sorry if any of you are in favour of revisionism in these modern times, but all it does is pass itself off as fake and disrespectful. The fact of the matter is, The Ritz in 1945 was not overly populated by black G. I soldiers out for a good time in The Ritz. And there's nothing wrong with that, it's the past and England nearly 80 years ago isn't the England of 2023. The Crown series in my opinion has less than 5 poor episodes in it's 7 years, this one is the worst despite the good main branching story about Princess Margaret.
