Yes, The Queen and Philip watch The Crown

All well and good, those jubilant reviews and famous fans, at the end of the day, it's all about The Crown naturally to two people and one question. What do Elisabeth and Philip themselves think? Well, we know.

Because Matt Smith, the actor who plays Philip, gave an interview to The Observer and answered if he knew what the royal couple's opinion was. And he did know. Via via.

Indeed, it was so situated that a great gentleman from the British film industry was having a dinner party where Philip was also there, and at a nice moment Philip asked him, “Are you involved in this Crown-thing?” I already found this delightful information. Philip calling one of the finest series ever made ‘this Crown-thing’. How understated do you want it to be, delicious.

The Queen herself is said to have watched the historical epic all the way through and enjoyed it. But Philip is Philip is Philip so when asked if he watched the series, he replied a firm, “Me? Don't be ridiculous.”

And that is exactly Philip's answer the way I like him best.
