Her Majesty is amused

It’s a question that has been pondered by many …what did Queen Elizabeth II think of The Crown?

According to UK’s Express, she liked much of what she saw in the Netflix series.

“Now I can disclose that HM has watched all 10 episodes of the series, having been encouraged to do so by her son and daughter-in-law, the Earl and Countess of Wessex, who arranged for Saturday night viewing sessions in the sovereign’s private apartments at Windsor Castle,” writes Adam Helliker.

“Edward and Sophie love The Crown,” says a senior royal source.

“It has been a longstanding arrangement that they drive to Windsor at the weekend to join the Queen for an informal supper while watching TV or a film. They have a Netflix account and urged her to watch it with them. Happily, she really liked it, although obviously there were some depictions of events that she found too heavily dramatised.”

Other members of the Royal Family are also fans of the series. Princess Eugenie enthused at a party last week: “The music is wonderful; the story is beautiful and you feel very proud to watch it.”
