Season 5 of TheCrown features the infamous leaked phone call between Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles.
"I remember thinking it was something so sordid and deeply, deeply embarrassing [at the time]," he said of the call."Looking back on it, and having to play it, what you're conscious of is that the blame was not with these two people, two lovers, who were having a private conversation."
While speaking ET, Williams echoed her co-star's sentiment. "The thing that I felt most strongly having read the transcript and the script is that they were joking. It's a joke. It's a self-deprecating joke. It may not be your sense of humor, but the way it was represented as some sort of sexual fantasy is not representative of what was said and what happened in the conversation," she says.
