When you're organising a red carpet for a big TV show, it's crucial to have as many important guests as possible.

Whoever made arrangements for the London's premiere of Netflix's The Crown on Tuesday clearly knew this rule well.

Claire Foy was there. Gillian Anderson was there. Matt Smith was there.

Oh, and a couple of hairy surprise guests who totally stole everybody else's thunder.

SORRY CELEBRITIES, BUT YOU SIMPLY CANNOT COMPETE WITH CORGIS.

JUST LOOK AT THEIR REGAL LITTLE FACES:

The corgis' names were Prince and Lily, and understandably Twitter gave them an 11/10.

If those swishy brown tails aren't enough to get you excited about The Crown Season 2, then frankly we don't know what will.
