/TV THE CROWN Return of Peter Morgan’s moreish series on the Royals As humans, looking at familiar faces and places makes us feel comfortable. For 20 long, event-fi lled hours, The Crown viewers have stared into the eyes of Claire Foy and Matt Smith, to the point where they felt more like Britain’s reigning monarchs than the real Elizabeth and Philip. Would swapping them for Olivia Colman and Tobias Menzies feel like some horrible soap re-casting when an actor dies or suddenly becomes persona non grata? And could anyone possibly match the tousle-haired, bleary-eyed hangovers of Vanessa Kirby as Princess Margaret?

Well yes, it turns out. Helena Bonham Carter does an equally excellent job of capturing the agony of playing second ddle to someone far less likeable than you. And, in some ways, the middle-aged Colman and Menzies t the Lizzy/Pip partnership even more snugly.

Having traversed the political and social machinations of Britain from 1947 to 1964, The Crown’s third season now heads into the never-a-dull-moment late 60s/early 70s. After enjoying a run of Conservative Prime Ministers, the Queen now has to deal with Labour’s Harold Wilson shuffl ing awkwardly on the Buckingham Palace carpet, unhappy children and the three-day week. Britain is in a right old mess across this series, but at least that’s comfortingly familiar . . . (Kelly Apter) The Crown is available on Netfl ix, Sun 17 Nov.
