The first four episodes of the final series of Netflix's The Crown have divided critics, but many gave it thumbs down.
The sixth season of the royal drama depicts the events of the late 1990s, including including the death of Princess Diana.
It also covers the aftermath of her death during which "phantom Diana" appears to Prince Charles and the Queen.< /p>
In a review, the Guardian said that "the Diana-obsessed series is the very definition of bad writing."
"Beyond all its formal failures, late-period Crown is also incredibly crippled in its place in living memory. Even if there were something to talk about, the memories and resulting questions racing through the viewer's mind at every step would make it impossible," wrote Lucy Mangan.
"He started to wobble in the third season, completely lost his balance in the next two and is now plummeting into the abyss."
