After watching series six, episode eight of The Crown, fans have been left wondering about the truth behind a scene showing the young Queen Elizabeth (Viola Prettejohn) and Princess Margaret’s (Beau Gadsdon) VE day escapades, which involved sneaking out of Buckingham Palace and dancing at the Ritz.
Was this storyline in the episode fiction, or did the siblings actually manage to shed the rigidity of royal life for one special evening?
