Prioritize:
Another very well portrayed behind the scenes of the royal family and this time the high level politics that go on around it. There aren’t any big events, but there’s still something going on.

I don't envy the creators for having to stick to the likenesses of such well-known figures — nailing Edward VIII, aka David, was particularly impressive. It's clear how much easier it must have been for the creators of shows like Vikings.
