Truth, Conjecture and The Crown



Coronation Day 1953 postcard

I loved the first couple of series of The Crown – all those stories which formed the backdrop to my youth brought to dramatic life. I only fell out of love when Olivia Colman (much though I admire her) took over as the Queen. However this hasn’t stopped me from following the furore raging around the current series. ‘This is outrageous/inaccurate,’ cry one side. ‘Don’t worry, this is fiction,’ cry the others.

I’m pretty neutral...
