Season 5. First Reviews
“This is the most interesting season of The Crown yet, even pensive in its attitude and approach (…) Debicki is a revelation as Diana”
Chris Panella : Paste Magazine
“Debicki is incredible in this role (and the similarities to the real Diana are eerie), (…) the fifth season maintains the melodramatic antics that keep us wanting more.”
Emma Fraser: The Playlist
“Minus Helen Mirren and Michael Sheen, itโs a season that already feels like too far in the past and too far in the future to be worth going the distance for anymore”
