We are just eight days out from “That One Day Every Couple of Years Where All of Your Friends That Are Fans of the Royal Family Are Unreachable”—also known as the day the sixth and final season of The Crown premieres on Netflix. Part one drops on November 16 and, in a changeup from past seasons, part two debuts on December 14.
We left off at the end of season five with Princess Diana entering the summer of 1997—not knowing, of course, that this would be her final summer, as she would close the season in Paris with Dodi Fayed, who would die alongside her in a car accident that August 31. Elizabeth Debicki, who plays Diana on the show, said that this season’s material was so emotional that some cast members were reduced to tears while filming, The Daily Mail reports.
