Why are people obsessed with these two? I really don't get it at all.

Just to add, NO I won't be watching anything involving them but it's bad enough seeing 'that smile' plastered across the media.

Had no intention of watching two attention seeking people. it is a very sad situation and will never be resolved - gone too far now.

eazybee The first 2 series of The Crown with Claire Foy are really good and not tawdry at all. I wouldn't recommend any more though, it gets too intrusive. Of course Netflix know they're onto a good thing and may be doing a prequel.

As for Meghan, I just can't take much more of that fake smile she has plastered across her face all the time. It's like a grinning mask and shows no character or genuine feeling at all.

Oh, that explains it. Saw a comment in the newspaper that 'The Crown is investigating Harry and Meghan this weekend' and took it to mean there was to be some in-depth investigation of their visits to suspect regimes by the British monarchy.

Never watched 'The Crown' and never will. Tawdry.

Didn’t see it or want to.I did hope we had seen and heard the last of them when they cleared off.Visiting tinpot countries is the sort of thing they enjoy, all the admiration and attention to their wokery.

I was reading so had it on just in case there was some new revelation to make me gasp in outrage and throw my book across the room.

There wasn’t!

I wouldn’t watch it on principle

However they are lapping up the attention they are getting in Columbia currently, really cringeworthy.

I didn’t watch it. Was it a rehash of things we’ve seen before?

Who watched this last night on Channel 5?

Second part tonight.

Must admit my eyes closed the last 20 minutes or so, will have to re-watch that bit.

Wish it had been 8.00-9.30 instead of 9.00-10.30.

Thought it seemed reasonably ‘balanced’.
