Netflix have released the trailer for the brand new and highly-anticipated season of The Crown. In its fifth instalment the royal drama will see Harry Potter and Downton Abbey star Imelda Staunton take over the reigns from season three and four's Olivia Colman, to play Queen Elizabeth II.
The season, which is set to launch on the streaming service on November 9, will start in a new decade - the 1990s - with the Queen approaching the 40th anniversary of her accession. Netflix have teased that during this fifth season the Royal Family will be "presented with possibly their biggest challenge to date; as the public openly question their role in '90s Britain".
The over two-minute-long trailer starts with a voiceover of Imelda as the Queen saying: "In light of the events of the last 12 months, perhaps I have more to reflect on than most" whilst she can be seen stood amongst the remains of a fire. It also pays note to the media attention surrounding the family during the divorce between Prince Charles and Princess Diana.
