The Crown final episode guide: what to expect from the epic finale of the Netflix show - including Kate and Diana's imagined 'meeting'

www.dailymail.co.uk, December 14, 2023
The Crown's sixth and final season has come to a dramatic conclusion this morning when the remaining five episodes were landed on Netflix. In the aftermath of Diana's tragic death, writer Peter Morgan from London has written a whole episode describing Prince William and King Charles' apparently tense friendship. What's more, viewers are also introduced to Kate Middleton as a student at St Andrews after she saw her late mother-in-law by complete chance on a shopping trip with Carole in London. In the meantime, the writers examined Princess Margaret's last years and provides flashbacks from her time in freedom with Queen Elizabeth to the end of WWII in 1945.

In the final episode of The Crown, Queen Elizabeth Blair condemns Tony Blair for Iraq, as Olivia Colman and Claire Foy reprise their roles as the monarch debates whether she should abdicate in favour of Charles

In the final episode of The Crown, Queen Elizabeth Blair is seen berating Tony Blair over the Iraq war as Claire Foy and Olivia Colman (pictured) reprise their roles to assist the monarch in deciding if she should abdicate the throne. This morning, Netflix announced the final six episodes of the hit series, which followed the late Queen's accession to King Charles' second marriage in 2005. The episode, titled 'Sleep, Dearie Sleep,' depicts a dramatic exchange between the late monarch and the former Labour Prime Minister, after crowds of protesters are seen outside Buckingham Palace clutching signs reading 'Bliar'. In one of their weekly meetings, Tony Blair, played by Bertie Carvel, begins discussing the public's outrage over Prince Harry's Nazi fancy dress costume.

The Crown risks row with Tony Blair by suggesting he lobbied the late Queen for a more public role for Princess Diana within weeks of being elected Prime Minister

Warning: SPOILERS. The former British Prime Minister (played by Doctor Foster's Bertie Carvel) discusses the possibility of the royal working alongside the government on a'more formal basis' in the first episode of the season. However, Queen Elizabeth II (Imelda Staunton) is quick to dismiss the proposal, saying, "As a divorced woman and no longer an HRH, Diana is now learning the difference between being in the Royal Family and out." However, the suggestion that the late Princess Diana (pictured right in July 1997) had the former Prime Minister's (pictured left with the late Queen) ear on the matter is highly unlikely, considering that he only served in the role for a few months before meeting the royal in Chequers in real life. After seeing Charles lobbying then Prime Minister John Major in a bizarre effort to compel his mother's abduction, last year, series five of the show suffered backlash. The meeting never took place, according to Sir John, who referred to the scene as a 'barrage of deceitful nonsense.'
