Oh, well, none of these series stick to the truth or give us fair portraits of members of the royal family. One of the reasons I generally avoid them. We only watched The Crown based on Foy’s performance as Anne Boleyn.

I avoid the daily shenanigans of the Royals these days - except for Phillip and Elizabeth. Now, they’ve become total tabloid trash with the emergence of Markle. And I’ve always found prim little Kate a bore after the dashing and dangerous Diana.

Yes, all movies and T.V. series, about the Royals, either current one, or ones from many centuries ago, are more fiction than fact; however, I don't mind THAT much, re the fiction, when it comes to the long ago ones. It's when they bollox up more recent ones, it drives me nuts!

And because I lived through all of Queen Elizabeth II reign, that's also why I refuse to watch THE CROWN! I know, far too much about today's Royals to watch some stupid, fictionalized BS about them.

I hated Diana back then and still do! She was an emotional and mental defective, a conniving, manipulative, little ignoramus, whom Phillip foisted on poor Charles ( and I'm sure that that and also how his father always bullied him, turned him into the loon he is now ), who never stopped loving Camilla.
