I've watched the first season of MITHC, and about half of the second. My wife and I watched them together, which was nice. (It reminded me of how we used to watch shows together in the pre-DVR days.) Anyway, for whatever reason we've gotten off it but we've been talking about resuming.

Glad you're enjoying The Crown. I've read that their long term plan is to recast the principals every couple of years with age-appropriate actors instead of burying the (obviously) young actors under increasing layers of latex. Probably a good move.

Speaking of Edward, did you see The King's Speech? He doesn't come off looking good at all in that. It's interesting how the narrative has shifted on him, from the romantic who gave up all for the woman he loved to the lightweight who couldn't answer the call on the eve of his nation's darkest hour. All a matter of perspective, I suppose.
