Here we go! Thoughts on The Crown! I asked Matt to join me to talk it all through on video. Based on your questions submitted via Instagram, we had so many thoughts about these five aspects of Season Four, Episode One:

  • A universal, friendly reminder: The Crown is a dramatization, not a documentary!

  • Weighing in on newcomer Emma Corrin joining the cast as Lady Diana Spencer β€” HER VOICE.

  • The Tree Meet Cute (which, uh, cringe)

  • Lord Mountbatten's death, and how it lays the groundwork for the themes to come (cough, resentment, cough)

  • Gillian Anderson as Margaret Thatcher. Brilliant!
