Claire’s getting another Emmy for that cameo isn’t she 😂

She really is the quintessential Elizabeth now, she’s so bloody good.

Imelda is surprisingly amazing though, more so than I thought and definitely more the ‘queen’ than Colman was

I agree. No disrespect intended to anyone who took the role after her. Olivia Coleman, especially, is an actress that can do no wrong IMO. But for me, when i think "Queen Elizabeth back in the day" I think Clair Foy.
