The Crown star Matt Smith has described the Duke of Edinburgh as “the man” following his death at the age of 99.
The Doctor Who actor played Philip in the first two series of the lavish Netflix series, opposite Claire Foy as the Queen.
He said: “I’d like to offer my condolences to Her Majesty the Queen and the Royal Family.
“Prince Philip was the man. And he knew it. 99 and out, but what an innings. And what style.
