The Crown season 6 in a nutshell

In a nutshell, the final season of the show will take the viewers through the lives of British monarchs from the late 90s to the early 2000s. In The Crown season 6, Elizabeth Debicki will play the role of Diana, Princess of Wales, while Dominic West will play the character of Prince Charles. 

The latest installment of the show will cover the tragic death of Princess Diana, but the creator of the show Peter Morgan said that the viewers will likely watch "the car leaving The Ritz after midnight with paparazzi in pursuit and then the aftermath with the British Ambassador to France swinging into action with the Foreign Office and then the subsequent constitutional aftermath."

A source of the production further added, "While we’re calmly carrying on, it’s fair to acknowledge that there’s a certain anxiety – a palpable sense of being slightly on edge. I mean, there’s bombshell sensitivity surrounding this one."
