More info Talking about the highly-anticipated series five of The Crown, Lorraine Kelly and Russell Myers detailed the storylines coming up on Lorraine’s self-titled chat show, and explained why some plots might make for uncomfortable viewing for the Royal Family. Grimacing at the thought, Lorraine expressed fears “Charles won’t come off well” in the Netflix series. Many prominent names have already spoken out to blast the upcoming series. The series is set around the early 90s, and will show Charles, who at the time was the Prince of Wales (played by Dominic West) speaking to John Major (Jonny Lee Miller) about a bid to replace the Queen (Imelda Staunton). It will also delve into Charles’ relationships with both Diana, Princess of Wales and Camilla. The former Conservative Prime Minister John Major has already hit back against upcoming depictions in the series, insisting the storyline is “a barrel-load of nonsense”.
