How to play The Crown plot order game

Each card is a moment from The Crown, and the goal is to put them in the order they happen in the story, which here means the historical order of the events the show depicts. The series each moment comes from is printed under its name, and a scene the show jumps back to carries a · flashback tag. One event sits on the line from the start. Slot every new card before, after or between the moments already down. A good call reveals where it belongs; a bad one still moves it to its proper spot, but costs one of your three lives.

Each series covers roughly a decade, so the label narrows things down, but the tagged cards are scattered through all six series and reach back as far as the years before Elizabeth was Queen. Some tagged scenes from late series land near the very start of the line. A sense of real history helps a lot here: who was Prime Minister, which royal wedding or scandal came when, and where each child of the Queen was in life at the time.
