Introduction 🔥
The six-series, three-star study, cast, multiple awards later, it’s time for Netflix’s smash hit, The Crown, to make its final curtsy. However, before bidding farewell, it is set to welcome some fresh new faces portraying the younger Royals – Harry, William, and Kate.
Public Opinion on the Royal Family 👑
After reviewing the data, the pollsters have presented their findings – indicating a significant disconnection between the royal family and ordinary people. 53% expressed that the royal family seemed to be out of touch, while a staggering 62% mentioned that they were wasteful of public money.
A Thoughtful Contemplation 🤔
The Crown itself doesn’t ask existential questions, but perhaps it should. The royal family is shown in a light that raises questions about traditional familial dynamics and a lack of understanding between fathers and sons.
