Charles, Prince of Wales (Charles Philip Arthur George; born 14 November 1948) is the heir apparent to the British throne as the eldest son of Elizabeth II. He has been Duke of Cornwall and Duke of Rothesay since 1952, and he is the oldest and longest-serving heir apparent in British history.
He is also the longest-serving Prince of Wales, having held that title since 1958. Charles was born at Buckingham Palace as the first grandchild of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth. He was educated at Cheam and Gordonstoun schools, which his father, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, had attended as a child. Charles also spent a year at the Timbertop campus of Geelong Grammar School in Victoria, Australia.
‘The Crown’ Rules Netflix’s Charts As Season 5 Of Royal Drama Launches With 107M Hours
deadline.comThe Crown’s season five has reigned supreme over Netflix’s English-language television charts. The royal drama was watched for 107.39M hours over its first five days, claiming the number one spot.
The series, which was created by Peter Morgan, launched on November 9 and the charts count data between November 7 and 13. The fictionalized drama series now stars Imelda Staunton as Queen Elizabeth II, Jonathan Pryce as Prince Philip, Lesley Manville as Princess Margaret, Dominic West as Prince Charles and Elizabeth Debicki as Princess Diana.
These are decent numbers for the streamer, particularly in the fifth season of a show, and put it higher than the launch of Manifest’s fourth season, which recorded 57M hours watched last week, the 72M hours watched for From Scratch the week before and marginally ahead of the launch of season five of Cobra Kai, which reported 106.7M hours watched, admittedly with two more days of viewing.
It couldn’t, however, match the 196M hours watched of the debut of Dahmer: Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story or the 125M hours watched of the first season of The Watcher.
