Outstanding Lead Actress In a Drama

Claire Foy - The Crown

This wasn't supposed to happen. I just felt so proud then of being in the company of such extraordinary performances. I know everyone's always talking about women in the industry, but if that's anything to go by, bloody hell. I'm technically not swearing. But Sandy Oh, I love you. Listen, thank you, Emmys. I've had the most extraordinary years of my life. I'm not going to cry on this program. I was given a role that I never thought I would ever get a chance to play. And I met people who I will love forever and ever and ever. And the show goes on, which makes me so, so proud. So, I dedicate this to the next cast and the next generation and also dedicate this to Matt Smith. Thank you so much. This means so much. Thank you.
