The Crown season 5 features a new cast, including the likes of Elizabeth Debicki and Dominic West, as well as brand-new filming locations.
Famous scenes from previous instalments of the Netflix historical drama have been shot at Lancaster House, which doubles as Buckingham Palace, and Winchester Cathedral, which was a stand-in for St Paul’s Cathedral.
With the latest series lurching towards the 1990s, with Imelda Staunton taking over from Olivia Colman as Queen Elizabeth II, a fresh batch of influential moments, and landmarks, have been peppering The Crown.
Some scenes have received backlash, including fictionalised claims that then-Prince Charles tried to enlist Prime Minister Sir John Major to persuade the Queen to abdicate.
Elizabeth, who plays Diana, responded to the criticisms and insisted while she ‘respects’ people’s opinions, she wants everyone to focus on the ‘creator endeavour’.
Meanwhile, other episode focus on happier and less controversial moments, including the Queen receiving a warm welcome when she opens a local dairy.
Here is everything you need to know about the locations in The Crown season 5.

The Crown will feature the famous 1992 fire that tore through Windsor Castle, which burned for 15 hours, destroying 115 rooms, including nine State Rooms.
The original blaze happened on November 20 after a faulty spotlight set alight a curtain next to the altar in Queen Victoria’s private chapel.
The Netflix drama filmed the recreation of the accident, which was a reason why the Queen branded 1992 her ‘annus horribilis’ at Burghley House, near Stamford, Lincolnshire.
