The Crown

Post by Spreckly »

One of my sons and his wife bought me The Crown for Christmas, series one and two. My daughter in law has been watching it on Netflix, which I do not have.

I have so enjoyed series one and two, and decided to buy series three, which so far is dull compared to its forerunners. Somehow there just is not the zing which Clare Foy and Matt Smith injected into it. The new Prince Philip's voice is amazing, as well as Olivia Coleman's, but I do feel that she was wrongly cast - brown eyes, when the Queen has blue, as did Princes Margaret, but not in this series.

Pip Torrance is amazing as Tommy Lascelles, and both Churchill and Harold Wilson are incredibly good.

I so far have watched most of the first disc, so will see!
