The Crown

Still from The Crown season 2

Did you watch season 1 of The Crown on Netflix? I did and really enjoyed it — except for I thought it focused too much on Prince Philip. I think Queen Elizabeth is fascinating on her own, and the show is called The Crown for goodness sake — we didn't need to spend so much time on snivelling Philip. I would have enjoyed seeing a deeper exploration of Elizabeth's relationships with her mother and sister. And did we really need her feelings about inheriting the crown framed through the Duke of York?

I was quite disappointed when I read that season 2 was going to focus even more on Philip. Netflix just released a trailer for the second season of The Crown last week though, and it looks intriguing...I might watch it after all.

Claire Foy was spectacular in the first season, and did you catch a blond Matthew Goode as Princess Margaret's new love interest, Tony Armstrong-Jones?

Season 2 of The Crown will be released on Netflix December 8, 2017.

Have a good Wednesday!
