1:02 Thank god for this recap. Totally get this confused with the other Princess one.
4:29 Those abdicators throwing a spanner in the works.
6:25 “He’s meeting me in London on our way to Montenaro.” The geography of this is blowing my mind.
12:27 They lit up the whole outside of the palace… that’s gonna be some electricity bill.
15:35 “Maybe I overstepped?” YEP.
25:17 I can’t believe the Hudgens is acting three parts in this and also producing.
30:17 She said they knew each other since school and now since university. Get your story straight missus.
35:20 Not sure of the reasoning for not telling Prince Edward.
41:50. Switching montage, that’s a new one.
49:23 I feel SO BAD for Edward.
1:02:24 How on earth did anyone manage to write this script?
1:07:39 “Are you sure she wasn’t pranking you?” I mean, this whole film is a prank isn’t it?
1:16:18 Her getting her name wrong is brilliant.
1:23:57 A wedding interrupted by tannoy announcements is fine, right? Memories!
1:28:04 Wait, what are THEY doing there?
1:30:51 Ooh, Sam Palladio singing the songs.

Thoughts

Okay, so I can just about remember the first one of these from a couple of years ago, and that was a fun Christmas movie. At first this one seemed like fun as well but it soon grew to be a confusing mess of many strands, although somehow despite how complicated it was, there wasn’t a lot really going on. Two people had previously fallen out but after spending an hour together they fell back in love. And someone else got kidnapped but then rescued without much drama. Job done.

The biggest crime of all, though: It didn’t need to happen at Christmas. The only Christmas links are decorating a massive palace, walking round a closed Christmas village, and a bit of snow.
