The Crown star Josh O'Connor has described the culture secretary's calls to add a disclaimer to Netflix's much-talked about regal drama as "outrageous".
The streaming giant's lavishly produced series arrived last month and has been in the headlines since, attracting criticism for allegedly not doing enough to ensure viewers know it is a work of fiction.
Season four features Diana, Princess of Wales (Emma Corrin) and dramatises her relationship with the Prince of Wales (O'Connor).
Oliver Dowden, the Culture Secretary, had asked Netflix to add a disclaimer to episodes, a request the US company denied.
