".... a barrage of abusive comments"says indy100. It wasn't me.
I must say the Crown prog does make Charles look more dim-witted than I imagine he really is. That must please some.
What is more fun in the latest series is the way Gillian Anderson portrays Thatcher.

Re: The Crown
There is something very wrong with depicting real live people in a supposed tv drama. A factual documentary by all means but to my mind made up drama should be limited to non existant characters for obvious reasons.I haven't seen this and have no intention of doing so, but from what I have read the scripts are quite libellous, and really nothing more than a cowardly attack on decent people with a lifetime of pulic service who have no way to redress or counter the scurrilous and twisted insinuations in these stories.
Disgraceful...

https://www.thejournal.ie/uk-culture...82717-Nov2020/Oliver Dowden said he fears that damage could be done to the image of British royal family without the warning.
He is expected to formally write to the US streaming company to request it adds a “health warning” before each episode of the acclaimed series.
“It’s a beautifully produced work of fiction, so as with other TV productions, Netflix should be very clear at the beginning it is just that,” he told The Mail on Sunday today.
“Without this, I fear a generation of viewers who did not live through these events may mistake fiction for fact”.
Those close to the royal family reportedly fear that fabricated scenes are hurting the monarchy, particularly heir to the throne Prince Charles.

Re: The Crown
HiNot watched it, I do not do so called reality shows.
My last serious invovlement with the Royals was in 1989.
The Tricentenary of the Royal Welsh Fusiliers at Powys Castle.
That was a nightmare, but passed off without incident.
It was on my patch.
that was also the year I got seriously injured and 2 years later compulsorily medically discharged
.My view of things.
The Queen is lovely and does a lot quietly and behind the scenes.
She is very forgiving of Protocoj,Mishaps from ordinary people.
Much less forgiving when it comes to those who should know the rules.
Prince Phillip is a toff, but a nice one.
You know who is boss when he is around, but he looks after people.
Anne is as blunt as they come, worse than her dad, a great user of four letter words.
A nightmare in her younger days, but never vindictive.
You cannot fail to like her.
It is like talking to your daughter, she will do what she wants, but not nasty.
I will refrain about commenting about Charles and amilla.
