Our Classics Revisited series looks back at the 2006 film The Queen, which won Helen Mirren an Oscar for playing Queen Elizabeth II and kickstarted a narrative cycle that Peter Morgan will conclude with the final season of The Crown


Lacy Baugher

Lacy's love of British TV is embarrassingly extensive, but primarily centers around evangelizing all things Doctor Who, and watching as many period dramas as possible.

Digital media type by day, she also has a fairly useless degree in British medieval literature, and dearly loves to talk about dream poetry, liminality, and the medieval religious vision. (Sadly, that opportunity presents itself very infrequently.) York apologist, Ninth Doctor enthusiast, and unabashed Ravenclaw. Say hi on Threads or Blue Sky at @LacyMB.
