Reply to comment by Redcandle_15 in ‘The Crown’s Jonathan Pryce “Bitterly Disappointed” By “Fellow Artistes” Who Attacked Netflix Drama; Imelda Staunton & Lesley Manville Suggest Reason For “Heightened” Tension Towards Series by Plenty_Marzipan_4477

I loved the show until it started getting into history I remembered living through and I could see just how much they were slanting or outright making up. As it is I still haven't finished the previous season and probably won't watch the next one.

I think they were open from the start that they were slanting though, it’s just it was a bit swooning and more romantic when it was set in the past. I remember the director talking about the Aberfan episode and saying they had to be really cautious because all that stuff really happened and there are still people out there who lived through it, which I guess wasn’t as important for everything else!

They got an attractive actor to play Charles. That part of the show is in Italics, how slanted it is.
