Olivia Williams as Camilla Parker-Bowles and Dominic West as Prince Charles Netflix
Dominic West as Charles, Prince of Wales : “I want people to understand , because the cast changes every two seasons, so it’s not a parody. It’s an evocation of a character. That’s where the show really lives: in imagined conversations about their private lives, which no one knows. I think that’s why it’s been criticized a lot. How do you know what they’re talking about in their private lives? The obvious answer is, we don’t. But we have an incredible writer, a playwright, who imagines it based on exhaustive research, and that’s really part of the show’s charm. ”

Netflix Claudia Harrison as Princess Anne : “Anne is an extraordinary character. She doesn’t exist to make people feel better about herself, but she excels at her job and is a proper feminist. She’s someone we can really look up to and I don’t think she has a sense of entitlement. ”
