The British government wants Netflix drama series The Crown to carry a fiction warning.

Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden suggested that the streaming giant should be "very clear" at the beginning of an episode that the show is fictional.

Princess Diana's former butler, Paul Burrell, has revealed that there were inconsistencies in scenes depicting a Buckingham Palace break-in, and also that the show did not portray Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip's relationship accurately.

Jennifer Gannon and Caitlin McBride gave their thoughts in our weekly TV slot.
