Premiering in November, the show is based on Queen Elizabeth II’s epic reign; each 10-part season will cover a decade of Her Majesty’s life. The first season kicks off in 1947, with episodes featuring high drama and emotion including Princess Elizabeth’s wedding, King George VI’s untimely death, a nation in mourning, Queen Elizabeth acceding to the throne at just 25 years old, and an aging Churchill as her prime minister, all while both Britain and the monarchy are in postwar decline. – Alice B-B, Vanity Fair http://ift.tt/2bdDVdS
