To help fans celebrate the return of The Crown on Netflix, Three UK is launching a 'Borrow My Corgi' dog-sitting service so that users of the streaming platform have a companion while watching the second season of the show. The Corgis, one of the Queen's favorite breeds, will be escorted to a participant's front door by one of the 'BMC Royal Butlers.'
As well as marking the return of the series that tells the story of Queen Elizabeth II's early life, Borrow My Corgi also shows off Three’s Go Binge service, which makes it possible for customers to stream shows freely without eating up data from their monthly allowance. As such, Three CMO Shadi Halliwell calls Borrow My Corgi "the ultimate way to stream The Crown – whether at home, in the park or on the move."
As part of the experience for runners up who apply, BorrowMyDoggy, an online platform that connects dog owners with local dog lovers to share the care of a dog, will also be giving 20 premium memberships to its service.
