“The Crown”, Netflix’s critically-acclaimed series, has reached its final chapter with its sixth season, setting its primary focus on the tragic denouement of Princess Diana’s life, earning the label of being a “Diana-obsessed series”. This drastic shift of focus turns the series into a sorrowful narrative, unlike any of its prior iterations.

Dominating the first four episodes, we’re transported back to Princess Diana’s final summer in 1997. With Elizabeth Debicki’s heart-wrenching portrayal of the Princess of Wales, the depiction of Diana’s death is a mournful tale that anchors the season. Amidst this sadness, there is an undercurrent of reverence. The series manages to pay tribute to Diana whilst restoring the show’s regal grandeur.

Meanwhile, Dominic West, portraying Charles, vainly attempts to resurrect Camilla’s public standing. Simultaneously, acting powerhouse, Imelda Staunton, as Queen Elizabeth, grapples with drawing a line under the ongoing turmoil. These secondary strife parallel the main narrative, adding layers to the complex series of events.

“The Crown”‘s final part of the series will feature a stark shift in the royal setting, showcasing a more contemporary version of the Royal family, mainly focusing on the younger generation of royals, encapsulating the ever-evolving face of British royalty.
