Matt Roush says...
After six seasons and three different casts to mark the passage of time, the Emmy-winning drama about the British royal family and the historic reign of Queen Elizabeth II (currently played by Imelda Staunton) takes a dignified bow with its final six episodes. Thankfully, the Ghost of Diana sits out these episodes, though her legacy haunts her survivors—most particularly sad Prince William (Ed McVey), who’s uneasy with his celebrity as he matriculates to St. Andrews, where he crushes on Kate Middleton (Meg Bellamy), whose mother (House of the Dragon’s Eve Best) is seen as something of a manipulative gold-digger. For the Queen, it’s a period of reckoning with mortality, with personal losses causing her to reflect on her monarchy (with cameos from Claire Foy and Olivia Colman, the actresses who portrayed her in previous years). She has regrets about the system that often denies the royals to be their true selves, but to the end, duty calls.
