Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAnthony Eden's (Jeremy Northam) drug use is now commonly agreed to have been a part of the reason for his bad judgment while prime minister during the Suez Crisis. Benzedrine, the wonder drug of the 1950s, regarded then as a harmless stimulant and used in a very casual way, has serious side effects such as insomnia, restlessness, and mood swings, all of which Eden suffered at that time.
- GoofsSir Anthony addressed the assembled student body at Harrow, not Eton.
- Quotes
Lord Mountbatten: Thank you for supper.
Queen Elizabeth II: [chuckles]
Lord Mountbatten: You... You will let me know, won't you, when I can take care of all this and send you someone really good?
Queen Elizabeth II: What?
Lord Mountbatten: The food.
Queen Elizabeth II: What's wrong with it?
Lord Mountbatten: It belongs in a nursery. Everything that should've been hot was cold. Everything that should've been soft was hard.
Queen Elizabeth II: [sighs] I've neither noticed or cared. And frankly, Dickie, the older and grander you get, the more common you become.
[chuckles]
