There’s change as well in swinging 1960s Britain, where this season of “The Crown” begins with the Labour Party narrowly winning power and Harold Wilson installed as prime minister.

The series artfully weaves together the political and personal. There’s a tender scene in which Elizabeth visits a frail Winston Churchill ; a wrenching disaster that tests the queen’s capacity to serve as comforter-in-chief, and a national economic crisis that gives second-fiddle Margaret a chance to shine.
