These adorable corgis were the real stars of the show at The Crown season 2 premiere
The entire cast of The Crown got together to launch the second season at a red carpet premiere on Tuesday night, but there were two unexpected guests who managed to steal the spotlight.
While stars Claire Foy, Vanessa Kirby and Matt Smith were there to celebrate the highly-anticipated return of the Netflix series, it was the shows beloved corgis who attracted the most attention at the Leicester Square event.
As the Queen is known for her lifelong love of corgis, it was a fitting tribute that the dogs were given a grand entrance into the screening.
They received the most attention from Billy Jenkins, who plays a young version of Prince Charles in the forthcoming series.

Its safe to say the dogs were in their element, but this isnt the only time the corgis have enjoyed their moment of fame. Their red carpet appearance comes after Netflix teased the second season with a rather cute video.
Set to the dialogue of Foys Elizabeth II and Smiths Prince Philip, the video shows a sweet interaction of their Corgi counterparts – complete with regal attire.
The new season will drop on Friday, December 8, although its unlikely well get to see the corgis play such a starring role.
Most of the main cast from the first season are expect to return, including Vanessa Kirby (Princess Margaret), Victoria Hamilton (the Queen Mother) and Jeremy Northam (Antony Eden). [Claire Foy, Matt Smith and Vanessa Kirby].
Matthew Goode will join the show as Lord Snowdon/Antony Armstrong-Jones, the society photographer who married Princess Margaret. Dexters Michael C Hall will play John F Kennedy, while Quarrys Jodi Balfour will star as Jackie Kennedy.
