Yesterday marked the funeral of the former queen of the United Kingdom. Queen Elizabeth II had a very deep impact on the audience, particularly in Europe. Thus, there are many shows and films about her life and also, on the British royal family.
After the queen passed away, we are seeing a huge spike in shows based on the life of the Queen and royal family. It is quite understandable that the Netflix shows like The Crown are getting views but that is not the all.
Even in countries like Italy, Germany, Poland and more, people are actually paying for on demand viewing of films and series based on the royal family.
According to data published by FlixPatrol, Chilli is recording high views/clicks on the royal shows.
A world in mourning remembers Queen Elizabeth II. #TheCrownNetflix is back on top but please take a look at VOD platform Chili. Based in Italy, but also available in the UK, Austria, Germany, or Poland. Their Top Ten? Darkest Hour, The King's Speech, Spencer, or The Iron Lady… pic.twitter.com/0Qe5OOzjps

As you can see in the data, Darkest Hour, The King’s Speech, Spencer, Elizabeth: A Portrait In Part(s) and The Iron Lady are trending high.
So is the case on Netflix where The Crown is soaring high after a long time.
The bottom line is some events directly impact the views of OTT. This is one such rare case. After the Russia Ukraine War, Binged reported a Russian film trending high. This is one such extension of the same.
