Totally superb faultless drama
These two seasons of The Crown are Tv/film production at its best - superb casting and acting, brilliant scriptwriting and camera work, and excellent accurate period details and background music. Everyone who worked on this did a fantastic job. It is the sort of totally class drama series that began in earnest with such as Band of Brothers, although the 1980s’ North and South was also superbly done. Even if you’re not particularly a fan of the monarchy, The Crown is so well done that it’s just engrossing viewing period.

Committed Viewing
An absolutely outstanding series with a great set of actors and actresses. Showing from her early life, H.M. Queen Elizabeth 2 through various stages of her life to very near present times. From the very first episode, you will be transfixed, is this real, did it happen? Then you will play the next episode and you've got the bug, hook, line and sinker, so to say.

High class production
Watching seasons 1&2 for the very first time, I can appreciate what all the fuss has been about. A really lavish production with great attention to historical detail. The cast and acting are top class. The direction, led by the amazing Stephen Daldry, is superb. I also enjoyed the magnificent opening theme music which builds the emotions towards the drama which follows.

Great TV Series
I bought this having heard great reviews from friends who were watching The Crown on Netflix which I don't use.I was certainly not disappointed. A great series which is based on fact but to the purists I am sure there will be many fictional parts or stories embellished. Its still great TV.
