00:00 It's been a whirlwind past couple weekends for you. Are you riding the high of these big wins into tonight's Emmys?
00:06 I'm riding the high into
00:08 The ether it's been absolutely wild and it's been pretty glorious and fun. Yeah, you've been feeling since the crown ended
00:17 well
00:20 There was a part of me that felt that it was time to let go of it
00:25 And now that I've sort of recovered from it and in a emotional kind of physical way
00:30 There's now a part of my brain that wants to do it again
00:33 It's sad for me to know that I don't get to play that part anymore because I just love playing it so much
00:38 But it's been lovely. It's been a lovely week to have the show recognized in that way and the work recognized
00:43 So what is it like reuniting with the cast at shows like this lovely?
00:48 It's we don't we don't get to see each other enough, you know
00:51 Because everybody just sort of goes off and you're so close and then everybody goes off into their lives and has to pick up their kids
00:57 From school and everything so it's it's nice to have condensed time back together
01:00 Princess Diana, of course was so beloved when she was alive for you. Your character is also so loved on the show
01:07 What is that fan love been like for you?
01:09 really
01:12 overwhelmingly lovely and
01:14 Something that you hope might happen, but you don't want to sort of put too many, you know expectations on that
01:20 So I I feel it very deeply and I don't take don't take it for granted
01:25 Do you think there's ever a world where we could get more of the crown? I don't know. I'm not sure
01:31 I'm not sure which iteration that would be I would say yes, but it's not up to me
01:37 We had to imagine is there any spinoff that you would pitch any characters you'd like to see more of
01:43 No, no, no in a way it feels so complete to me this season
01:49 I think they did such a beautiful job wrapping it up the way they did it was so
01:52 Elegant and Imelda was incredible and so no, I I don't I don't think so a good place to end
01:59 I think so. It feels right to me. Yeah
