Queen Elizabeth longtime friend criticizes Netflix's 'The Crown': 'It just makes me so angry'
Queen Elizabeth's friend and Lady in Waiting to Princess Margaret, Lady Anne Glennconner shared her dislike of "The Crown" on Netflix on BBC's "Woman's Hour."I saw Helena after she'd been in"The Crown," she said, ‘What did you think?," Glenconner recalled."And I said, ‘Well, rather disappointing.’ And she said ‘I know. But the thing is I’m an actress and I have to do what's written for me.
"You know, poor Prince Philip, they accused him in ‘The Crown’…that his sister died…because he did something. Well I mean that was completely untrue. And I think to say something like that about people is terribly hurting. I mean nobody wants to have their relations trashed like that."

"The trouble is, the people, especially in America, believe it completely. There's nothing much I can do about it," she lamented. Caroline Thayer is an entertainment writer for Fox News Digital. Follow Caroline Thayer on Twitter at @carolinejthayer.
