Film Reviews by KW

I'm well aware that The Crown is a series that has been around for ages and so I'm very much behind the times in watching it, but it was worth the wait!

I guess I'd called myself a royalist and whilst I have some worries about busting the mystique, it's good to be reminded that at the end of the day this is a family of human beings - just like we all are - so the (imagined) conversations between the main characters are fascinating and don't seem too far fetched.

As someone who wasn't born at the outset of the Queen's reign it was interesting to get a perspective on events such as Churchill's prime ministership and Princess Margaret's affair with Peter Townsend.

The acting and camera work are of high quality and clearly no expense has been spared on setting and props. Worth a view for sure and I look forward to future series.

I've loved 'Wish You Were Here' as long as I can remember, so it was great to understand a bit more about where it came from and how it was all put together. Dave Gilmour and Roger Waters are articulate and engaging in their presentation so the hour soon whizzes by.

My only moan is the teaser of those iconic 4 notes which never does become a playing of the whole track at the outset of the album. This would have been a great way to finish off the whole story. Of course, you can then go and listen to it in whatever way you listen to your music.....

Enjoy this documentary - we did!
