Netflix and the Crown

I have just had a very relaxing week at one of the beautiful beaches near Lisbon – they really are breathtaking – particularly Praia de Adraga which was voted by the readers of the Guardian newspaper to be the most beautiful beach in Portugal.
I had hoped to get into a book on holiday but instead found myself finally understanding what the Netflix addiction is all about … I looked forward every day to watching the next episode of The Crown, also a prizewinning series about the Queen of England and the early years of her reign.
With the subtitles, my partner found it easy to understand and very interesting to learn about the not always politically correct British monarchy and politics under Winston Churchill … with the general election looming this week and the sad events, I wonder if anything has changed …
