District council leader Paul Arnott writes about how film characters are real people who don’t answer back
Even if you don’t subscribe to Netflix you can hardly miss the coverage on the fourth season of The Crown. Priming the publicity furnace further, ‘friends’ of the royal family are claiming that it’s all a cruel travesty when the leading characters are still in play.
Where to begin with the above?
First, perhaps my casually using the word ‘season’ instead of ‘serial drama’, which in old TV parlance tells of returning characters progressing, one programme after another, though discrete and yet linked stories. That’s what The Crown is.
