Tobias Menzies talks to Anushka Asthana about playing Prince Philip in seasons 3 & 4 of Netflix smash hit The Crown.
When Tobias landed the job, he knew little about Prince Philip, a person who was so often photographed but so little known.
He discusses the process of trying to inhabit Prince Philip’s mind and body, the perspective he got on what life in the royal family is like, and the ethics of playing such a famous person while they were still alive.
