British Culture Minister Calls for 'fiction' warning label on Netflix's 'The Crown'

"I fear a generation of viewers who did not live through these events may mistake fiction for fact," said said culture secretary Oliver Dowden.

"I fear a generation of viewers who did not live through these events may mistake fiction for fact," he said, adding that while it was a"beautifully produced work of fiction," it"should be very clear at the beginning it is just that." Speaking to the BBC, former royal press secretary Dickie Arbiter criticized the series for"stretching dramatic license to the extreme," accusing it of being a"hatchet job on Prince Charles and a bit of a hatchet job on Diana."

Who let the Thermians from GalaxyQuest watch TheCrown?

A shame they didn't put that on Vote Leave leaflets . Maybe time to warn people that Daleks are scary , but not real .

Any intelligent person should know that this is drama, and drama is very different from recreation of factual events. Should every performance of Shakespeare’s Henry V be preceded by a warning label?

Good call.

Seriously... stupid move? This will only call for more attention. Also, why act like the world doesn't already know what transpired behind those vintage drapes.

I believe Di

What a wanker lol

Netflix’s ‘The Crown’ needs to be labeled ‘fiction,’ says British culture ministerCulture Secretary Oliver Dowden told the Mail on Sunday newspaper that the hit Netflix series should include a disclaimer. Fox411 And instead Netflix released Diana: in her own words 😂😂😂 Fox411 Stop, they killed her Fox411 I get what all the people are saying that, this didn’t happen etc. but it’s a TV show so it’s always different. I don’t get why when there is a movie/show everyone is so quick to criticise the show because it’s wrong. But if they filmed it correctly to facts would we like it

The Crown's Josh O'Connor Slams 'Outrageous' Proposed Fiction Disclaimer - E! OnlineThe Crown star Josh O’Connor responded to British culture minister Olivier Dowden’s request that Netflix append a “fiction” label to the series. Please , so the Government wont take responsibility if something happen with the person/patient after vaccination? That's awfully disingenuous of him, especially since he once played gay face and never thought twice about it. That's privilege.

Britain's culture minister wants Netflix to label 'The Crown' as a 'work of fiction'“It’s a beautifully produced work of fiction. So as with other TV productions, Netflix should be very clear at the beginning it is just that,” Dowden told the Mail on Sunday newspaper. REPORT: Biden’s Thanksgiving Day Address gets just 1000 views online, a record low. Observers say a candidate with “80,000,000” votes would get many more online viewers. Numbers don’t lie, or add up! We're watching it here in Denmark. In almost every episode we Google certain events to see if they stack up and so far it's on point. Naturally the drama is about who said what, and how it was received. A shrug here, an eye roll there can tell a bigger story sometimes. More good news please(((
