Imelda Staunton said that she learned that Queen Elizabeth II had died while on the set of "The Crown" and was only able to internally process her passing after filming ended for the day.
The 67-year-old, who plays the late monarch in seasons five and six of the Netflix show, appeared on "The Graham Norton Show" where she shared her reaction to Her Majesty's death. When asked if she was filming the series when the Queen died, she replied: "Lesley Manville, who plays Princess Margaret, and myself were filming, and at lunchtime we were told we might hear some sad news."
