9. The Middleton Doppelganger (The Crown)

The Crown is one of those shows that can dominate the online conversation, and that's exactly what happened when its fourth season hit Netflix in late 2020.

Around this time, fans grew attached to one particular extra seen in the sixth episode, Terra Nullius, who acted the hell out of her brief moment on camera.

Responding to Princess Diana with the exact same energy as a dog reuniting with its owner after a long time apart, she looked like she was going to burst with happiness, but her incredibly sweet, convincing performance wasn't the only reason the internet took a shine to her.

Instead (and we can't believe we're saying this, but it's true) some fans believed that this extra was none other than Kate Middleton - y'know, the Duchess Of Cambridge - enjoying a royal cameo.

Admittedly, you can sort of see the resemblance in the image above, but other angles make it clear that this woman, in fact, isn't actually Kate Middleton. Shocking, right? Still, whoever she is, she clearly gave 110%, able to stand out despite being surrounded by a thronging crowd of people.
