The final season of 'The Crown' on Netflix has sparked mixed reviews and controversy as it delves into the tragic death of Princess Diana. Critics are divided over the portrayal of Diana's ghost and the handling of sensitive moments, with some finding it unsettling. Elizabeth Debicki, who plays Diana, has expressed the emotional toll of filming the series, particularly the portrayal of Diana's fatal car crash. The decision to include ghostly conversations between Diana and Dodi Fayed has been met with criticism and debate. The season has also faced allegations of retrofitting the Harry and Meghan story onto the plot about Charles and Diana, adding to the controversy surrounding the show's portrayal of real events.

Just finished The Crown and I'm not sure I've ever seen a creative decision as bad as Diana's ghost. I actually think these four episodes as a whole don't deserve the slating they've had, but I can see why critics reacted so poorly
