According to The Sun, bosses are ‘hopping mad’, with a source explaining: “Dramas like The Crown have got their production moving without a hitch.

It was added that both cast and crew have been affected and the show won’t start up again “until further notice”.
It’s still not known if this will affect season two’s release date or not.
