Royal Central’s Senior Europe Correspondent Oskar Aanmoen, who is based in Oslo, talks us through the inaccuracies contained within Atlantic Crossing – an eight-part series looking at the plight of the Norwegian Crown Princess during World War II.
Atlantic Crossing is now airing on PBS in the United States and Canada. It is an eight-part mini-series, looking at the Crown Princess of Norway’s escape to safety in the United States alongside her children during the Second World War, as well as her friendship with American President Franklin D. Roosevelt. While some are enjoying this latest royal story encapsulated in to fictional life, for me this is a series full of mistakes that I fear will be the lasting image of the Norwegian Royal Family during World War II.
