omg i love it and have been going down the rabbit holes of Charles/Diana photos and footage after watching. The actress who plays Diana has the eyes down perfectly.

No, they were FICTIONAL based loosely around historical events.

And they aren't covering Diana's death.

How can they not cover her death?! If the series is supposed to run up until the boys are teenagers, that would be a huge omission.

Because they do not plan to get as far as 1997, unless they stop shortly before it happens.

Really? I think it’s a caricature. The whole head tilt thing is way overdone. She’s trying so hard to get Thatcher’s accent and pacing, she sounds robotic and has a weird raspiness in her voice. Watch videos of Thatcher — she did often speak at a slow pace, but her voice wasn’t strained at all.

Watched the first episode, so good! Can't wait to watch the next one.

Loving it thus far! Gillian Anderson is excellent.

I will be tuning in at midnight to watch!

It’s from the homily that the Archbishop of Canterbury gave at the wedding. P

Yes, and one of the “kids” is milking that tragedy for all it is worth

Woo hoooo! Anyone know who the narrator is or who he’s supposed to be?

No, they are doing 6 seasons total.

No Season 5 is already on the way. They’re going to cast young William and Harry but end before either go off to college.

They are going through Season 6. First they were going to 6, then they were stopping at 5, but now they are back to 6 again.
