Margaret Campbell | Duchess of Argyll | interview | Presented to court | Good Afternoon | Part 1

I know this isn't everyone's taste of tea, but I found The Dirty Duchess to be fascinating.

Wasn’t DL villainess Lady Colin Campbell a good friend of hers?

R2 I'm open to correction, but I believe Lady Colin was her daughter in law.

[quote]The pearls provided a dead giveaway that it was indeed the Duchess who was giving oral sex to a faceless man in the controversial Polaroid. The photograph had been revealed by her then-husband, the 11th Duke of Argyll, as evidence of her adultery and sexual nature, reports The Telegraph.

R6, No, that was Princess Michael who wore the blackamoor brooch.

If you're offended by the presence of blackamoors, just watch this clip on the Villa Windsor.

Funny I was just reading about this house on another website and the decor was described by visitors as “Palm Beach”. I don’t see it myself but I guess it referred to bright colors and bamboo chairs.

Sorry, they were talking about the country house, the Mill.

[quote] Her friend Lady Diana (Mitford) Moseley, wife of Britain's most famous fascist, found it, "very bright with patterned carpets, lots of apricot, and really more Palm Beach than English or French". The usually fawning photographer Cecil Beaton was unable to mask his disgust: "overdone and chichi. Medallions on the walls, gimmicky pouffs, bamboo chairs. Simply not good enough". The New York interior decorator Billy Baldwin was no more complementary: "Most of the Mill was awfully tacky but that's what Wallis had - tacky southern taste, much too overdone, much too elaborate and no real charm".

Ouch!

Recently enacted by Claire Foy in the highly revisionist series "A Very British Scandal" (2021). The Duchess was more sinned against that sinning in Sarah Phelps' feminist "take".
