The series had also seen a notable increase in the number of viewing minutes following the death of Queen Elizabeth II on 8 September this year. The first season with Claire Foy immediately reached the seventh place in the ranking of the most watched series.
The last season of The crown talks about the turbulent 90s in which the British royal family had to take many blows and had to work hard on the image damage. The roles are played by, among others, Imelda Staunton who plays the role of Queen Elizabeth and Dominic West and Elizabeth Debicki who play the role of Charles and Diana respectively.
