I’m sure you’ve heard all the buzz about Netflix’s new series, The Crown, but in case you haven’t, here you go: it’s the most expensive series Netflix or anyone else for that matter has put together with costs at over $100 million. The series looks fantastic and many are comparing it to Downton Abbey. It premiered today and you know many will be binge watching this weekend.
The first season revolves around the Queen (Claire Foy) as she prepares to take the throne aged 25, after the sudden death of her father King George VI (Jared Harris); balancing her marriage to Philip Mountbatten (Doctor Who’s Matt Smith), while trying to forge a working relationship with Winston Churchill (John Lithgow) in what was a fraught time for Britain.
If you’re like me and have always been fascinated with the whole Royal Family way of living, you’ll want to check it out. I’d love to hear your feedback on Monday! Have a great weekend!

I was thinking about checking that series out! I am one that loves that time era and learning about the royal family! I just finished Game Of Thrones so I guess I could start The Crown. I also heard that The Tudors were good too! Have you tried that one?
