Question - I was told that the estate of Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, James Dean do not allow movies and series made of them. That permission has to be obtained from the estate - which is how they are able to control the public image.
Is this truth? And if it is cant they do something similar for Diana and the royal family in general?
From reading these two websites, The Crown production team tried to match the location/estate with similar architecture. In other words, the scenes that were set (in the plot) is not where it was shoot/recorded. For example, scenes with Windsor Castle were filmed in Belvoir Castle (Home and seat of the Duke of Rutland's or Manners family), as well as Burghley House.

Apparently, the camera crews were not at Buckingham Palace, instead CGI was used
