This compelling two-part series profiles Princess Margaret, whose life and loves reflected the social and sexual revolution that transformed Britain during the 20th Century. With sumptuous archive, engaging animated illustrations and a series of revealing interviews with close friends, personal staff, historians and biographers, the series follows Margaret’s life as she re-defined our image of the modern princess. This deeply personal account reveals how Princess Margaret’s character combined the rebellious force of modernity and a deep respect for tradition. In this she embodied the spirit of cultural change in the second half of the 20th Century.
