Although the fourth season of “The Crown” is likely to be remembered as “the Diana season,” it also sketches a much broader portrait of Britain’s transformation under Margaret Thatcher’s premiership, depicting the poisonous trickling of neoliberal policy into the lives of ordinary citizens. One episode is based on the true story of Michael Fagan, an out-of-work house painter who has grown increasingly desperate in a country ravaged by unemployment.
Alongside Gus, others interviewing for a job at Pierpoint include Yasmin , a pencil-skirted, pussy-bowed posh girl with a naughty side ; Robert, a working-class, party-animal Oxford graduate ; and Harper, the show’s de-facto heroine , a Black American grad with a murky past. “Mediocrity is too well hidden by parents who hire private tutors. I am here on my own,” Harper says to Eric, the managing director of Pierpoint’s Cross Products Sales , who later becomes her boss and mentor.
But what does living mean, here? The series displays not just the spoils but also the costs of the path that Harper and her peers have chosen. The spaces in “Industry,” which are rendered in a dingy, pallid palette of grays and whites and blues and blacks, feel deadeningly claustrophobic, not just within the workplace but also without. Outside the office, the grads go fast and hard—the show is one of the dirtier, more explicit programs I’ve seen lately, even considering HBO’s historically T.
