Former Telegraph editor Charles Moore revealed that Lady Penn, who died aged 97 last month, had warm words for Foy, who portrayed the Queen in the first two series of The Crown.
Lady Penn, who has died aged 97, was a close friend of the late Queen and Princess Margaret, and a former lady-in-waiting to the Queen Mother; she was the widow of Sir Eric Penn, one time Comptroller of the Lord Chamberlain’s Office, and thus lived at the very heart of Palace life for more than 70 years.
