For 70 years, Queen Elizabeth II saw herself as the protector of the Crown, through every era and every scandal. THE REAL CROWN: INSIDE THE HOUSE OF WINDSOR is the gripping inside story of the British Royal Family told by the people who really know it, from the former head of the British Army to Princess Margaret’s lady-in-waiting.
Spanning over six decades of British history, this epic family saga offers behind-the-scenes revelations and intimate insights into the stories we think we know – the celebrations, tragedies and scandals that made headlines around the world – alongside the assassinations, bomb plots and kidnappings that are an intrinsic part of royal life. The series, narrated by Adjoa Andoh (BRIDGERTON), unfolds in glossy and immersive archive from across the decades, bringing the family’s history to life like never before.
