May 6, 2019I tried to watch this, but it was so laughably unbelievable I couldn't. I watched the White Queen and enjoyed it, and Elizabeth is one of my favorite films, but this smacked of over the top feminism. I'm all for equality, but quit trying to rewrite history.

May 29, 2019Stopped 10 minutes in. It is so embarrassingly cheap and badly written. I expected some quality BBC historical drama, I got some Harlequin trash instead.

Oct 4, 2020As someone who read the two novels this show is based on, I found this show fascinating. However, if you are not into royalty dramas, this show probably won't be your cup of tea. I also love how this show has a Muslim character and doesn't ignore the fact that people of color lived in England in the 16th century.

Sadly, I also came away from the first four episodes of The Spanish Princess with the sense that its hats have been crafted with more care than its characters. A few of them do spring to life with more persuasive detail than the others. ... Try as it might, it can’t help slipping back into the story we already know, and although the result is still entertaining, it’s also less original than I might’ve hoped.

Props to the props department, as well as everyone else designing sets, handling makeup, or crafting wardrobe, but those fundamental elements of a good period drama are the only real reason to spend eight hours with this dull trip back in time.

Gripping.
