After all the anticipation, season six of the The Crown has finally arrived on Netflix and it's everything and more than we could have ever hoped. Now that part one has finished and the time frame has shifted forward to the early noughties, Ed McVey arrives to play the show's final Prince William.

As well as the return of some familiar faces including the incredible Elizabeth Debicki as Princess Diana and Dominic West as Prince Charles, the final season has introduced us to Meg Bellamy as a young Kate Middleton, Luther Ford as a teenage Prince Harry and, of course, Ed McVey and Rufus Kampa as young Prince Williams.

Rufus Kampa features in part one, which is set in the summer of 1997, and Ed McVey takes the reins to play Prince William as an undergraduate at St Andrews University in part two. The final six episodes of the The Crown also explores the early years of Prince William and Kate Middleton's relationship. All of which land on Netflix on 14 December.
