Netflix has defended its hit show"The Crown" as a"fictional dramatisation," after former British Prime Minister John Major slammed its depictions of his time in office as"damaging and malicious fiction" and a"barrel-load of nonsense."
A statement on behalf of the former prime minister sent to CNN on Monday described such scenes as"a barrel-load of nonsense peddled for no other reason than to provide maximum — and entirely false — dramatic impact." "There was never any discussion between Sir John and the then Prince of Wales about any possible abdication of the late Queen Elizabeth II — nor was such an improbable and improper subject ever raised by the then Prince of Wales ," he added.
According to Netflix's description, season 5 centers around the Queen"approaching the 40th anniversary of her accession."
