The British royal family crashed Hollywood’s biggest night for television and film. “The Crown” took home the Golden Globe for best TV drama, in addition to giving leads Emma Corrin and Josh O’Connor, who play Princess Diana and Prince Charles, their first Globes. “The Crown’s” Gillian Anderson also won for supporting actress in a TV series.

The streamer behind the hit series, Netflix, which commanded the competition with 42 nominations and 10 wins, also landed a pair of nods with chess-prodigy drama “The Queen’s Gambit,” which was named best limited series and earned its star Anya Taylor-Joy the actress in a limited series prize.
