The Crown‘s Princess Diana and Margaret Thatcher both find themselves betrayed by those closest to them as the Netflix royal drama wraps up Season 4 — are their reigns over already?
The finale begins with Thatcher’s conservative allies openly revolting against her in Parliament, with Sir Geoffrey Howe resigning and condemning her “finger-wagging” on the way out. She meets with Elizabeth and only wants to talk about the brewing crisis in the Gulf, but Elizabeth brings up Howe’s resignation and asks if she expects a leadership challenge. Thatcher dismisses it as just “petty rivalries and resentments,” but she narrowly survives a vote,...

Though she is only 200 yards from her survival, getting there proves the ultimate contest of wills. It’s Jaws for a new generation.

Looking, um, amazing, Lively! Bikini-clad Blake Lively strutted her gorgeous figure on the beach while in Lord Howe Island in New South Wales, Australia, on Wednesday, Oct. 28. The Gossip Girl alum — who is also mom to 9-month-old daughter, James — was photographed shooting her upcoming thriller The Shallows. Lively, 28, rocked a cleavage-baring orange string bikini top and teamed it with Tory Burch blue bottoms. In addition, the actress, who married Ryan Reynolds in 2012, wore minimal makeup and kept her luscious blonde waves in a [...]...

Blake Lively put her stunning curves on display last week when she hit the beach in Lord Howe Island in New South Wales, Australia. The actress, who was filming scenes for her upcoming movie The Shallows, looked gorgeous in an orange bikini top and printed bottoms. Blake, who welcomed daughter James just 10 months ago, flashed a smile as she soaked up the sun and ran into the water with a surfboard. At one point, Blake covered up in jean shorts and a wetsuit jacket. The sexy outing is just the latest we've seen of Blake recently. After shutting down Preserve in late September, she had a cute outing with her older sister Robyn in New York City in October. Keep reading to see more of Blake's bikini body, then check out these hilarious throwback pictures of her from high school.

Blake Lively's post-baby bikini body is making waves down under. Ten months after welcoming a daughter, James Reynolds, with husband Ryan Reynolds, the actress was photographed on the set of her new movie, The Shallows, in Lord Howe Island in New South Wales, Australia, late last week. Blake looked toned and tanned in a yellow-orange triangle top and printed bottoms as she filmed scenes on the beach. At various points during the outdoor shoot, she covered up by wearing jean shorts, a long sleeved sweater or a wetsuit jacket. Blake and her family had arrived in Australia Tuesday. It's unlikely that any locals got to see Blake in action, as there are only 800 permanent residents and there is no...

Wishy-washy and unfocused, Phyllida Lloyd's Margaret Thatcher biopic fails to embody the indomitable spirit of its subject
Director: Phyllida Lloyd
Entertainment grade: C+
History grade: C
Margaret Thatcher was prime minister of the United Kingdom from 1979 to 1990.
Structure
The Iron Lady tells its story as a series of flashbacks experienced by the ageing Thatcher (Meryl Streep), suffering from dementia and haunted by the imagined ghost of her late husband, Denis (Jim Broadbent). Streep is terrific, carrying off Thatcher in her prime and Thatcher in her dotage with equal aplomb. Regrettably, however, so much of the film's screentime has been devoted to the dotage – and so many of the flashbacks are, unlike Thatcher herself, preoccupied with her role as a wife and mother – that little time is left for the interesting stuff. A few of those who are relegated to blink-and-you'll-miss-'em status, or don't appear at all: Cecil Parkinson, Nigel Lawson,...
