The crown

Today was the premiere for season 6 part 2

I met the cast at the premiere and private screening. They premiered the episode but I am not allowed to give spoilers.

Imelda (older Queen Elizabeth), Olivia (middle aged queen) Dominic(Charles), Ed (William), Meg (Kate), Salim Daw (Mohammed al Fayed, Dodi's dad), Gilliam Anderson (Margaret), Elizabeth (diana), Khalid (dodi), Luther(Harry), were there

Does anyone here watch this show?

I have heard its a good show, but I have no interest in the royal family. Does it show how racist the royals are??

I don’t think it showed racism but they only just started William and Kate’s story in season 6 part 2

Crazy fan. Waiting for Dec 14th.

They have chosen one good looking Diana a d William.

The new William is good looking

Diana is pretty but very thin

The closer it gets to the present, the worse it gets. S6 Part 1 felt like some sort of rebranding arc for Charles by throwing Elizabeth under the bus.

I don’t think they completely show misinformation as Harry also said how his dad conveyed news about Diana’s death to them. But they do make us sympathise with him more now

They do try to show the monarchy in good light now Charles is the new monarchy

I am happy they resolved Diana as a separate arc though, so the second half can be free of her. Let's see if they are able to close on somewhat of a high.

I watch the show and am hooked.

I am a total Brit - How can I not watch. I wouldn't line up outside the Palace with flowers and tears, or follow all the stories but I do like the Royal Family and it's been insightful.

There has been a lot of history shown in there, I didn't know of otherwise. Funnily enough - so many things I rem from the different era's like the picnic with Di and Charles with baby William when it was aired and I was really young and watched it on TV.......... So I rem almost everything from that moment on.

After I watched the show - I started liking Camila.

I do watch the show and I am Indian from India and living in India. I'm no fan of the royal family but I liked to watch it because it gave the Britain's view of geo political issues of the world. I like the PM and Monarch meetings the best. Sadly after Diana's entry all those geo political issues took backstage in the show. Hopefully now with having been done with Diana's role the show will get back to geo political issues.
