Looks Like High-Stakes Marital Drama in Netflix's Queen Elizabeth Series, The Crown

Seems like they’ll be covering ol’ Eddie and Wallis, as well as Elizabeth and Philip’s process, early on, of hashing out how to be a married couple in the 1950s when the wife was also the sovereign. (As well as his figuring out what precisely his job was.) Plus the bigger question that has dominated Queen Elizabeth’s reign: What does royalty even do in this day and age?

Anyway, Claire Foy looks regal and luminous, John Lithgow looks absurd but Churchill-ish, and Matt Smith has somehow managed to look weirdly like Prince Philip from certain angles. Didn’t see that one coming.
