A gross flaw in “The Crown” stirs passions in England

A gross flaw in "The Crown" stirs passions in England

With its impressive production budget, “The Crown” series should be flawless, as it often has been since it debuted on Netflix in 2016. The teams are not immune to mistakes, however, and this was the fifth in the most recent season, a decade seen in the 1990s when the British royal family was rocked.

Netflix subscribers in England are fuming over an episode in which Queen Elizabeth II, played by Imelda Staunton, gives a speech near a milk tanker, with a misprint: “Morecambe”, which is “Morecambe”, a town. A seaside resort in the city of Lancaster, Lancashire.

On social media, followers of ‘The Crown’ went wild, asking: ‘Don’t you think we’ll notice?’ Another said of the schoolgirl’s mistake, “Hello!” The magazine reported.

This final season of the saga of the British royal family will focus exclusively on the divorce of Prince Charles – now King Charles III – and Princess Diana. We’ll have to wait until next year for the sixth season, in which we’ll see the sad end of Lady Di, who died in a violent car crash in Paris in 1997.

Former British Prime Minister John Major, portrayed by Jonny Lee Miller in the fifth season, also complained about the reality of a meeting he allegedly had with Prince Charles about his eagerness to become king. Mr. Major dismissed the scene as pure fiction. Prince Charles, now 74, had to wait 30 years to finally become king, as he ascended the throne on September 8. His mother, Elizabeth II, died of old age that day at the age of 96. She will reign for 70 years seven months and two days.
