Yesterday, Thursday, September 7, at 18:00 the world stopped: at 96 Queen Elizabeth II has disappeared, after 70 years of reign. Short footage of the BBC broadcast the sad news dressed in black as per protocol; the royal relatives hurried to Balmoral, the Scottish residence where Elizabeth died, while in London hundreds of people gathered in front of the palace to pay funeral honors to the sovereign. Now ten days of national mourning will follow, after which he will ascend the throne Charles III.

Italy also wants to remember this extraordinary woman. who from yesterday was immediately renamed Elizabeth the Great. Therefore television immediately revolutionized its programming.: did it last night, with special and direct until late at night to tell all the details of the sad death, and will continue to do so today (and also in the coming days) to honor the memory of this woman.

Lots of meetings on Sky. It starts in the afternoon at 17:20, with Sky One which offers some selected episodes members of the royal family: more precisely, we will (re-)see episodes dedicated to the relationship of the queen and 14 British prime ministers (yes, she met many, including Winston Churchill and Margaret Thatcher) and the relationship, even more complex and delicate, with her son Major Charles, heir throne. After that, always Sky One but at 19.15 special issues Coronationtaken five years ago for the 65th anniversary of the coronation. Finally, at 20:15 the documentary follows. queen invisiblewhich explores the lesser known and more intimate aspects of Lilibet, to use the nickname the English used to call her.

Do not miss Sky Cinema from behind movie Queen – Queen (2006), with amazing Helen Mirren who received both the Golden Globe and the Oscar for this role. At the center of Queen Elizabeth’s efforts to stop the paparazzi and journalists after Lady Diana’s death is to guarantee the privacy of sovereigns in this terrible mourning.

Always in heaven but on the channel Sky documentariesdocumentary worth watching As well asLizabeth – Portrait in parts. Created by Oscar-winning director Roger Michell, it attempts to bring back a fresh and original look to Elizabeth’s reign by stealing backstage moments. For example, we will see how the young and euphoric Elizabeth, fresh from the coronation, gets out of the carriage and almost drops the crown. Among the stolen moments that will make you smile with tenderness, the images of the very young Lilibet, who dances and sings, unaware of how heavy the duties that await her, certainly stand out.

If, on the other hand, you like to do everything with your own hands, well, you can pay tribute to the memory of the sovereign by playing on the platforms. The name par excellence, of course, Crown: in fact, three-quarters of what we know (or think we know) about the royal palace, we took directly from the famous television series Netflix. To interpret Elizabeth at different stages of her life, Claire Foy, Olivia Colman and from November Imelda Staunton (Yes, in a couple of months the new season Crown…).

Another title to be restored is the movie Spencer. Okay, technically we’re talking about Diana, but where Lady Di is, there’s always the Queen. Here she has the face of Stella Gonet, and Diana plays Kristin Stewart. It is also available on the NOW Sky platform. King’s speech: again, in the center there is King George IV and his stuttering problem, but also Elisabetta, still a child, appears to melt the heart. Relations with his father were indeed decisive in the life of the future queen.

On the Prime Video you can also restore the movie One night with the queen, even if here the real world meets the fabulous one. The film begins, yes, with what actually happened, that is, when on May 8, 1945, Elizabeth and Margaret, then only 19 and 14 years old, left the royal residence to go to a ball at the Ritz. It was the evening of victory over Nazi Germany. At this event, however, we embroider a lot: to say, even the age of the two main characters has changed. She was chosen for the role of naive Elizabeth II Sarah Gadon bye Bel Powley he takes the place of the clumsy and clumsy Margaret.

On the YouTube 3′ of your time is absolutely worth the clip in which the legendary queen sips good tea with Paddington Bear. A funny video was filmed this summer, on the occasion of the birthday celebration. Platinum Anniversary, that is, for 70 years of reign. No sovereign has ever lived so long. A little curiosity: The queen often made forays into the world of cartoons. In 2012, for example, a family of pigs Peppa Pig he went to meet the queen. They will not only succeed, but they will also find that the sovereign is an admirable person. Together with her, they will visit the royal garden and this will be an opportunity to explain to Elisabetta that puddles cannot be avoided: you need to jump into them. The episode is called peppa meets the queen and you can also get it on youtube.

The queen inspired everyone. And also, and above all, film and television.
