Is season 4 of 'The Crown' too close for comfort?

ENCORE! © Netflix

It's a show that like the queen herself needs little introduction: Alison Sargent and Olivia Salazar-Winspear dive into the fourth season of Netflix's drama "The Crown", featuring much-awaited portrayals of Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and Lady Diana Spencer. As the series gets closer to the current day, some find its depiction of sensitive events hits too close to home. We explore the controversy with the help of history professor Anna Whitelock.

More recent events are the backdrop of "No Man's Land", an espionage thriller and family drama about a young French man who gets caught up in the fight against the Islamic State group.

We also check out "Ethos", an intimate exploration of divisions in modern Turkish society, and a woke reboot of the early 1990s sitcom "Saved by the Bell".
