You don’t know what happened, so I think you can run with that and be more imaginative. But rather than just whipping something together that feels Diana-ish for scenes behind closed doors, the costume department instead looked to some of Diana’s most iconic fashion choices-and we hunted them all down.įYI, costume designer Amy Roberts actually spoke about taking creative license with Diana’s looks to Awards Watch last season, saying the show is “bookended by real events, like the wedding dress of Diana’s, like the engagement suit, so I think you do have to honor people’s memory of those and you do have to do that pretty accurately.” However, she notes there “are huge ways in the story where it is made up. However! A lot of this season features private royal moments, meaning some liberties have inevitably been taken when it comes to Diana’s outfits. And with Princess Diana continuing to take center stage, The Crown’s wardrobe department is clearly having a lot of fun finding exact replicas of her most iconic outfits. The level of precision is on another level. I'm beginning to smell a repetition of history that is soon approaching.While The Crown season 5 is getting some side-eye for its historical accuracy-or lack thereof-the show fully delivers when it comes to re-creating everyone’s outfits. This is the only logical explanation to me.Ĭharles is reminding me of Queen Catherine's son in "Catherine the Great" (based on true events) starring Dame Helen Mirren (which is ironic for a plethora of reasons) a brat who cried to Mummy for power, betrayed his wife who adored him, everyone preferred his son to rule instead of him, and once he ascended the throne he ruled unsuccessfully for 5 years. Mind you, I could be wrong but looking at the math, I don't think I am, 4 gorgeous seasons and then a dud? I refuse to believe this, usually Peter's scripts are TOO good, so much so it's hard to pinpoint any real flaws outside of the casting department not casting whomever you had pegged to play a certain role or an event that really wasn't vital to the storyline you wanted to be covered. Lastly, may I share a theory? I believe we were given a watered down version of the real Season 5 in order to save Netflix's hide from a lawsuit by cry-baby Charles, and that there's a "director's cut" somewhere in the Netflix vault, that is absolutely gorgeous in every way possible, that we would've been given if the Queen were still among us. The relationship between Sydney and Mou Mou was fantastic, the actors had great chemistry.Īt the end of the episode Porchie is mentioned, would've loved to see an older Porchie alongside Lilibet, possibly could've been implemented into episode 6, preferably played by John Hodgkinson, great actor, very good at playing small roles. I loved the episode, loved seeing a fellow son of Bahamian soil (Sydney Johnson) get some spotlight in such a popular series, we love the Queen and "The Crown" in the Bahamas.
