It’s a comedy on (I think) Acorn that does a parody of the Royal Family as a soap opera. Mostly pretty funny (if sometimes crude if that’s not your thing). And they don’t have a version of Queen Elizabeth. Apparently that was the one thing everyone agreed shouldn’t happen. Starts pre-Megan Markle, and for some reason there’s a running joke that Kate is a “gypsy.”
For some reason it won’t let me add a link to a trailer.

I watched it awhile ago. Vicious satire similar to _Spitting Image._ Delightfully nasty.

I haven’t seen the show, but I think I’ll start now!

We watched it twice a couple of years ago. It’s hilarious. We often wondered if anyone in the Royal Family was aware. It makes them all appear to have IQs lower than room temperature.
