MARGARET' TOLD HER Another episode will focus on the Aberfan disaster, which happened in a Welsh mining village in 1966. Speaking to Radio Times, Colman revealed these were some of the
hardest scenes for her to film. She said: “I can’t hide anything. So that was the hardest thing ever, to play someone much stronger emotionally than me. “When we filmed the scenes with the
tributes and the flowers and the toys, the director would say, ‘Pretend you’re just judging a flower competition.’ “Because if I thought about what it actually was, I couldn’t cope. I can’t
do repression.” In order to be able to watch the series, viewers will need to have a subscription to the Netflix. New users can sign up for a 30-day free trial before upgrading to a monthly
membership. Costs of monthly membership begin at £5.99 per month for the basic subscription. For options of higher definition of content as well as multiple users, membership can cost up to
