I’m excited to see a Royal Night Out since it’s free on Netflix and based on a true story. Here’s the down low:
“On V.E. Day in 1945, as peace is declared across Europe and London is celebrating, Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret are allowed to join the celebrations, against the Queen’s wishes. The King, impressed by Elizabeth’s pleading, asks her to report back on the people’s feelings towards him and his midnight speech on the radio.
Each girl, incognito, is given a chaperone of an army officer, and an itinerary to be back at Buckingham Palace by 1am. Soon realising the planned itinerary by the Queen does not live up to their expectations of fun and meeting the ordinary people, Margaret is the first to slip away from her escort, followed by Elizabeth.”
Let me know what you think if you decide to watch it–or if you have already seen it.
Peace out Girl Scouts & have yourself a great weekend,

After watching “The Crown ” this was a little cheesy.
Mavis Butterfield says
Nothing can compare to The Crown. It was so good I watched it twice.
Kara says
The Crown was a little forced in my opinion. And it I felt the accents were not quite right.

I noticed Good Earth tea “Sweat and Spicy” in the “my favorite things section. Please tell me where you find it. I can no longer find it in DC, and ordered it today from Amazon in bulk! I remember discovering this tea at the Good Earth restaurant in Westwood when I was a student.
Mavis Butterfield says
Our local grocery store carries it {although it’s more expensive than Amazon} I’ve seen it in Whole Foods and Cost Plus World Market as well.
Claudia says
I thought “Royal Night Out” was a very good movie, it was fast moving and kept my interest.
