I have mixed feeling and have not watched anything as yet but might hang on until the Christmas holidays.

I am liking it okay. Imelda as some of the Queens mannerisms. James a Murray as Prince Andrew is hilarious. I like it. The Al Fayd episode seemed a bit useless and with the valet. Was that true. Didn’t know anything about Dodi though, only he died in Diana’s car.

The actors cast as Sue Hussey and Penny Mountbatten are perfect.
I found the scenes with HM and William and the televisions very amusing.
I’ve only watched the first two episodes so far but have to say I’m struggling with some of the new casting so far.
I feel like the actress playing Diana has gone way overboard with the “downward glance”.
Imelda just doesn’t work as the Queen.
I feel exactly the same about Debicki and Staunton. They are both a struggle for me.
Marmaduke Hussey's portrayal left me speechless. What was the point of that bedtime scene?
I was expecting , maybe after reading too much Daily Mail articles, a vitriolic tale of the infamously tumultuous 90's with some Armageddon consequences to the present reign. At the end it was clearly not the case.
As such, for those who were eagerly waiting an anti Charles and Camilla manifesto (spare me, you know who you are) it was not the case either. Quite the contrary, actually.
The "artistic licenses" are still there, sometimes irritating or frankly laughable . Still it was pleasant to watch. Just pleasant, not fascinating anymore.
