The Netflix success series The Crown has inspired Swedish TV channels to look at their royal families for some god revenue. Channels TV4 and C More announced that they will make a series about the Swedish royal family headed by King Carl XVI Gustaf and his German born wife Queen Silva who have two daughters and one son.

The Swedish series will follow Carl Gustav’s journey from childhood to the throne and will probably comprise six episodes.
The Swedish court has stressed it is not a part of the project with the royal family’s spokeswoman Margareta Thorgren saying the court should not be part of the project but has has answered scrip writer Åsa Lantz’s questions about for the more documentary parts of the project.
Asked if the royal family is worried about the series, the spokeswoman told public service television SVT:
“I’ll return the question to you – don’t think there is anyone who would not be worried if one’s life would be a TV series”.
