Primary
The series maintains a largely neutral stance by meticulously exploring the multifaceted challenges and personal sacrifices inherent in the British monarchy, balancing critiques of its anachronistic nature and human cost with an appreciation for its historical significance and the concept of duty.
The series primarily features traditional casting that aligns with the historical identities of the British Royal Family, without intentional race or gender swaps of core roles. The narrative focuses on historical drama and personal struggles within the monarchy, offering a neutral to subtly critical perspective on traditional identities and historical events, rather than making explicit DEI critiques central to its themes.
Secondary

These portrayals are factual and nuanced, often reflecting the secrecy necessitated by the era's societal norms.

The film consistently portrays Christianity, particularly Anglicanism, as a foundational and often positive force in the lives of the British Royal Family, especially Queen Elizabeth II.
