The Crown season 5 is finally out - but is season five of the beloved Netflix series worth the watch? See our review here

November 08, 2022 - 13:59 GMT Emmy Griffiths It’s safe to say that The Crown faced criticism in the weeks leading up to the Netflix premiere. The series, which looks at a fictionalised retelling of the major events throughout the Queen’s reign, was met with outright criticism by the likes of Jonathan Dimbleby and John Major - with even Dame Judi Dench preemptively calling it"cruelly unjust". In short, they really needn’t have bothered.

In fact, if we had to choose one villain of the piece, it would have to be Martin Bashir, whose efforts to convince Diana that the royal family was spying on her led her to deep paranoia. The newly-minted cast is - as with previous seasons - perfect in their roles.
