railroad you'll get the straight talk in the break. on larry king an hour from london the problems start where for when we were shooting it we all knew was great and we loved it but we'll say you see in this job playing something and putting your heart and soul into it and then doing it at home . or no one watched arrow no one really cared i never thought that anything i would be in would be released that's what i think it's. a magic thing that she's always done her job is the best for me to see and she's me living in a world where position and. what it's all for cast entirely based on what she gets reflected back from the british people and i cannot so incredibly carious positions being as the world to. you think that must watch it come to definite people in the

household it wants to and certain members of the family have watched it but we don't know what you know plus knows it true that you are a good start in the. next movie about me alone. i think and i think that family and all next on larry king now. well good no larry king now we're in london where we're joined by the golden globe and screen actors guild award winning actress claire for why she plays the queen elizabeth the second on that medal flicks mega-hit the chrome the first season of the crown which won this year's golden globe for best drama series is available on netflix and the second season is due later this year you are in the second season to i am and then you're gone and then on call then you're replaced by an old do you

yeah well i think that i think i'm sort of reincarnates as someone completely different which is why the show is amazing i think that was always the idea. and so someone else takes it on i'm gone on oprah crying and you get the part. the normal way i just got sent the script and met with. peace morgan the writer and the cup of the directors. and it was a relatively painless experience because normally it's quite painful. but yeah it was felt kind of really easy i mean it was slightly different because i was five months pregnant at the time so everything felt kind of a bit like. out of the ordinary i suppose but i never thought i would get the part i just of went annoyed at the fun because i was five months pregnant and i'd planned not to work that was what i was going to do and and it was a massive undertaking and a massive show and also at the time i thought was well i'd never heard of netflix shooting anything in the u.k.

or even europe and i think it was kind of one of the very first kind of. shows they produce and sell so it was an unknown kind of entity for me when you got the script frankly did you think it would be that good it is. i know i've never thought that anything i would be in would be really successful and i think it's kind of. a magic thing that happens and i don't and i when we were shooting it we all knew it was great and we loved it but you're so used to in this job loving something and putting every your heart and soul into it and then doing it and everyone goes there was terrible or no one watched there or no one really cared and you're a star ok you know on to the next so you were bros just hugely surprised they were going with germ of the hoopla is true true with a new movie are truthful i know it was a load to work with job well i mean first of all when i heard that he was cast it made me really really excited about the show because it by that point i'd only been cast so i thought this is going to be awful because i'm in it and then i heard he

was cast and i just thought that such a exciting different choice because church was such an incredibly famous british leader and it's so much about what it is to be english is that of bound up with him in this you know as an english person it's very difficult to kind of approach that character i think it must be very hard. and also we have such a wealth of incredible older actors who could have played the part. but john is. just i mean you know him he is a very funny he's incredibly funny he's got a wit and a charisma and eleven which i think is exactly what the church show and just also a lost for life which i think churchill had always that he wanted to make the most of every single opportunity and that's what john's like he's just an absolute hero is certainly a warts and all the direction and the words of the brits think and i do i mean i

think it's gone down really well in the night i don't necessarily in my everyday life meet lots of people who've watched it. and i think every time i've been to the us it's always been for the shows that i'm much more aware of how americans feel about it. i think people have enjoyed it and i think. i think people probably think it's a very american thing because it's in america's netflix but really at heart it's a very british show as it were firmly committed and if you think to much watch it come on what do we definitely know the people in the household of watched and members of the family have watched it but we don't know whether you know the boss june or doing it yet loads i think peter scripts highlight things about british history or about the world family which you don't aren't common knowledge that's what he likes to fight he likes to sniff out the kind of juiciest more so which is sort of seen as monday no or too ridiculous to write

about because you could make it up and he loves that he loves the most possibly kind of unbelievable thing and he's got loads of it is have you finished the circumcision yes he had done done done done done or can you tell us about it and don't say you can say a thing but it's already happened you know it's why our actors has a didn't you tell me a little bit but what am i can you not ok great here i was going to happen so hot. i mean it gets we did we start the second series where we ended the first one so it's kind of nine nineteen fifty seven fifty six fifty seven and and we go up to sixty three so who. knows so it's how a million so we have eden and then we have have a million paper and one lesser and then we have princess margaret's missing. tony armstrong jones which you can only imagine is kind of mad and

then we have the kennedys we have the kennedys in there somewhere maison but it's grown is not in john's john is in one scene he already shot. so he i kept saying can't we just get him back in because it would boost morale. but no he's not he's not coming he's in once in fact it was a tough to play. it was tough to shoot raw i think. that the toughest part of it was not having and not judging myself or trying to get it right or worrying about whether or not a thing lucky i had a small child so i have no time to think about when or where i could or could only win are my instincts and what i felt was the right decision and then the directors were incredible and kind of just said keep an eye on this keep my mess don't do that and we had a voice coach and. all those things but it was it was mainly just not psyching

myself out was that you won the golden globe for your performance you call an out of body experience so you shot it yeah i mean i was it was a very weird i've never been trained not that before i've been to kind of you k. award shows and things that. uses a different level and. i just yeah i all i've been doing for the past kind of eighteen months of shooting the show and being in that world and all of a sudden i was in l.a. at an awards show and ever sort of treating me like they're equal parts a bit like this is a bit strange a bridge over go or more. of them war yeah it was a real laugh actually and. then we were all there and stuff and unfortunately of the. myth that he wasn't there because he was still sitting in england. but it was amazing just

a very surreal surreal moment of my life in your acceptance speech you think queen elizabeth saying she has been the center of the world for sixty three years and i think the world could do with a few more women at the center of it you know my over. yeah i mean i don't know how you couldn't look at. what she's done and not admire her she's i mean i think she's actually been around for much more than sixty three years and i'm terrible at math . but she has. endured and. been duty bound for sixty plus years and never any point. shown any publicly any questioning of that she's always done her job the best for ability and she's constantly living in a world where her position and her or authority or what little authority she has is entirely based on what she gets reflected back from the british people and i think that's an incredibly precarious position to be in. and i just think you know if you

could know if you could be in the room or people that she's met all the dignitaries and had to stay in heads of religion and she's just see is pretty much an encyclopedic knowledge of the hill and the horses and go shooting it don't rise yet you know your circumcision mill prime minister yes which women come along with them hot i mean. yeah ethics since suffragettes i'd say probably quite a lot. i think so i mean i think it's very interesting i think with. our prime minister you can't help but notice the way. she's described in the way that she's treated in the media is incredibly kind of off but very easily off the cuff without realizing it. not condescending but. the fact that she's a woman is very prevalent and you know it's all about what she wears than the fact that she's crying or she's upset or that she must be sad and levels of things and

and so with come i think women have come an incredibly long way. not that we should have had to i suppose this is all of this of for to you your is famous in america if you were in london. of his fame effect well it hasn't really because our i mean i've been working for. many years eleven years. and i don't know i think i've seen it from the outside for a long time and have quite of. a not understanding of of it but i've seen how it works for long enough to know that it's not. all it's cracked up or pretends to be. but no i mean it's a weird thing because i because i've very much in the bubble of shooting the show so. it doesn't feel like it's me it's the birds on the street job to know never never know when i'm working no never is great is because i'm blonde at the moment

and and also i don't really live a life where are that would have i don't i don't know are i i don't know make sure i don't really yeah i don't really go out to all sorts of things or anything like that it's all to do with work release and the british little different aboard fame or employ or do you mean they're bit different about fame little world of you on the street. they're more polite i would think what i think yeah i mean in london especially people have got stuff going on so they're not really expecting to see like just you know of all famous person on the tube so people don't you don't really everyone's very much kind of like focused on what they're doing especially because we have got cold weather here and so people bundle up and it's not so much it's not like l.a. where it's a kind of celebrity town. but i don't i don't really know to be honest i have never really experienced it i think celebrity culture is something that is.

sort of self-fulfilling. thing and when we're and people it's apt to have such a huge appetite for it. all for me to what that what the idea of it is yet yeah well i mean if i think people want to believe that the people that they look at who are that they're not real people is that a much like the royal family you want to believe that they are showing imaginal but then but they're not we don't want to be a cinematographer i did see i did here when i was younger you have another you have a camera i love light. i don't necessarily love the idea that taking photographs but i did i don't really have a fascination with how the moving camera works and i'm sure to be a similar tone for on a film no no no no you want to be warned though and then i learned more about it and went on it's important oh my god it what that's the point is when you see someone for example at john a goldman who's the d.a.p.

on the crown when you see someone who just. they live and breathe it and they never start working he never stops you know i say it and he makes it. the he makes it look beautiful and i thought i did that it would just be a is a lightbulb natural getting closer to reveal a guilty pleasure to trade places with her day more life is like after playing the queen more after the break. i'm tom hartman i'll give you what the mainstream media can't so big picture. a little. and when you question mark find what you're looking for this is. the stuff. we'll go deeper investigate and debate all so you can get the big

picture. and. i think the average viewer just after watching a couple of segments understands that we're telling stories that are critics can't tell and you know why because their advertisers won't let them. in order to create change you have to be honest you have to tell the truth parties able to do that every story is built on going after the back story to what's really happening out there to the american public what's happening when a corporation makes a pharmaceutical chills people when a company in the environmental business ends up polluting

a river that causes cancer and other ill. this is they put all the health risk all the dangers out to the american public those are stories that we tell every week and you know what they're working. with claire for the crown series golden globe winner great actress she will soon be seen with andrew garfield. finished the second season the queen will be recast for the third season do you know who will play. and i thought it no no i don't think you have a thought because i mean it's very odd kind of having an idea about who you will turn into. i think they're an amazing bunch the directors and the producers in there i said i think just to have exciting as last night in being feel about giving up your crown. i don't know yet because i think really i think once.

the next day starts we like oh i believe it's. not i think it out they can also beast be amazed i was part of it i can't wait to watch what happens in the show and i can't wait to watch it as just as a fan yet i just can't wait for it we play in the game of if you only knew or just throw questions or choose you do not have to answer that it is not a trial i feel coffee my heart sort of thing ok i don't know who is your childhood celebrity crush. stephen gately from boys. guilty pleasure. or gods. oh my god i don't really know you like sweets. to sugar or cake cake cake and i sort of try to research into a purge myself or my guilty clothes i don't do them in a sort of terrible reality t.v. i don't do that anymore really is to love it but now i have negative pleasure about

deshon you know why couldn't i know. who would you trade places with through day. a brain surgeon you see good talent. i crush dance oh sure american accent. i just don't i've just done something in american accent as a no it's it's fine it's like any accent i have to work on it i should never say it's terrible it's it's mazie using oid and you know it's i think it is difficult coming off the back of doing something like the queen's accent which is so it's like speaking in tongues it's so. to cuba. and it's just a very different vowel sound the most difficult thing about accents is getting to a point we are comfortable with them so that you're not doing them any more strange . are my girl out a lot i had to take. i don't know what else to call them the

pipes for trawling definition i had to take out the sort through pipes of prawns poppers. and. you know like that's all the intestines of a prawn but not they have them but they they have sort of part you can't eat them because they're me very ill i spent a whole day taking those out of prawns in a bush up with no others in a tent i was working at a wedding or something you wish you were better at our god speaking. oh everything favorite voice. god are you targeting clear i'm not i'm not i just can't thing i just am so not so funny as famine can ever. i hope you know how many i've been a fan of people in the army don't you know we're doing yet there's an up to be people

yeah i went up to louis theroux generally through the documentary maker. my god he's amazing and i saw him at the batter's and sort of just i had ike i have to tell him i loved him so i just went up to him and told him i loved him and then left and i have thought it wasn't a wise thing to do but i feel very good that i told him i loved. your husbands and i do truly is yeah yeah you have to work together you know we did me on a top but no we never worked. who is your favorite member of the royal family they're called he. was the most quintessentially british thing about you. i'm stoic you take tea i don't drink today i don't take it what does take teen mean they possibly will do that i think it's when you have tea in the afternoon kind of crumpets sandwiches and cakes and you can do that every afternoon we only have about nor point one percent of the population and the rest of people

wake up and have a cup of tea like this couple of social media questions morello maria lapore what with us the queen and prince regarding their lives i don't know i i don't as i don't want to be sort of ghoulish about it or. maybe i'd ask about when they first met and i know they met when he was at naval college and she was thirteen and he was seventeen i think. but i i yeah they're very different people as well so i would ask you know how much time they generally do spend together mostly doing how they get to how they've done it and how that must be difficult being royalty evant is their problem and i think a lot of people kind of think oh but you know they've got loads of privileges and they live in a car like you know castle or palace and stuff and and i completely understand that but if you take away someone's pritam i think that's a pretty big ask matt smith how do you feel about the media and the paparazzi

oh that's i think that's for mark in our answer on behalf of matt smith. not formed i think this is puppets that are not a throne not of colleen tweets why don't you have any social media coverage oh i don't i mean it's a personal thing but it's like i don't have facebook i got rid of facebook many many years ago because it's not very good for me as a person i would just spend my entire time looking at people i went to school with and i disappear into the base of time. and also i don't. i want to try and avoid buying into all that as much as humanly possible for myself it makes me the heart of it amy our key twenty three how does elizabeth and philip's marriage change this season god. i think the difficulty with it is it doesn't change so it's a classic case of a marriage where. they haven't noticed that either of them have changed and they're

both going on different paths. you know luckily you know we know that they stay together but it's about it being a marriage and i think it's not peter morgan is nice saying this princess meets a prince and they live happily are ever after and is it magical or madly in love or i think they were yeah and they were really madly in love but i think life happens and and difficulty happens and i think you either come together or you get drawn to parton you just hope that they can work it out rhonda as with any scenes you showed and really love that didn't make give them to the series. i shot we shot loads in africa. of of them a tree tops that never made it in that was always stephen daldry it was all incredibly romantic and kind of. really hot i really really hot but yes there was one scene where we wish our wedding night that never made it in with me i think

it's right that it didn't make it in or that they wasn't like it was like a passionate moment but it wasn't because of that reason it was very very funny i thought it was a very very funny and very kind of indicative of both their personalities but we'll never see it on that did you disagree with them leaving it oh no no no you can say it no i can't i can't them i have many. ways it true that you're going to star in damien she sells next movie about neil armstrong. yes i think when i hear if i am yes playing his wife i am on the air i'm surprised that after all this time they're finally doing a movie about him really well think of it how long of the eleven on the moment teen sixty something but it's interesting it's kind of like the crown for example is about the queen when she was younger i think is one of those things that it's just enough time has passed that people aren't going to be viewing it not protectively

but kind of with the idea that it's very difficult when you make anything about a figure that's known very well is that everybody's got an opinion on how it should be done or how and i think enough time has passed now for people to hear the story and see the story and have you seen the script i have yet. to play neil ron causley longer for is amazing and you have to have an american accent i will you have very specific or and he also along is a very private man very very private didn't like public speaking yeah didn't like appearances but he got very good at it they both got very very good at the end yeah yeah and i think. you're i think it's interesting to see two people who are night kind of celebrity of today are are naturally straight of very suspicious i think people learned to be very suspicious and not what they want getting out and intrude press intrusion and all those sorts of things but that wasn't as prolific then but you do see that they they as a family and as

a unit were very very private and. and i don't think that's not. i think there's a reason for that but i mostly thrilled about that role oh my god they're sort of called first man it's called first man yet where was his wife when he was on the moon. at home they do they have seen as a home yeah yeah yeah it's not oh it's not based up there it's a lot of it is about the domestic situation and one of their life together in their life is a family where the shooting. or atlanta. good luck with that. thanks to buy gas for the first season of the. later this year and as always you can find me on twitter at kings things.
