The Crown is already a huge success for Netflix, but the drama's being criticised for taking liberties with the truth. Some leading historians are concerned about how Prince Charles is being portrayed as the drama moves into the 80s and the arrival of Princess Diana. The Evening Standard's Katie Rosseinsky has watched all of season 4, and says the writers definitely use artistic license but argues they've never claimed to be making a documentary, and that's why it's such a hit.

Also, half a million children in London will go hungry in the run up to Christmas if nothing is done to help them, according to researchers at London South Bank University. The Evening Standard's launched a campaign to make sure everyone gets fed this festive season. Working with charity partners Food for London Now is getting hot meals to the capital. Leon Aarts, from the With Compassion charity, tells us how they saw huge demand for help when they set up just two days after the first lockdown began.
