Feel the cast were absolutely perfect, especially Jack Whitehall.
Wasn't a huge fan of the romantic element, felt forced really.
Definitely worth a watch.

DO NOT MAKE THIS MISTAKE- AVOID WHILST PREGNANT. I was an absolute snivelling, blubbering mess. It really does hurt your heart to watch, it's also different than most stories you'll see regarding the ending. (I hope, if you've seen it, that makes sense 😊)
Definitely a tear jerker, has its lovely moments but mostly really sad.

Firstly, one thing we all will notice that there is HUGE difference to other shows set in the 1800s. Usually the cast would be predominantly white. Lets not skirt around it. However, this amazing show not only has fabulous characters of all race and cultures, the first I've seen where a mixed race couple in the 19th century is the norm. Obviously historically speaking this would have been illegal, a queen of England being anything but white unheard of. This show breaks that barrier, creating a world we could only wish was actually our true history.
The stories run together so well it feels natural, where some shows can struggle to keep up with multiple storylines going. It's never confusing or hard to follow, it flows so well.
I could go on but genuinely do not want to spoil the show for anyone that may want to give it a go, so I'll leave you with this:
I honestly think this show is the best to have come about in a VERY long time, certainly worth the 8 hour binge.

One little tidbit incase anyone doesn't know, there is a scene where Aragon kicks a helmet in anger. This reaction is actually real, as he kicked it he broke bones! Not only did he injure himself, he kept in character and that take was used in the final cut!

I absolutely love the ending, it is both satisfying and bittersweet but it was genuinely a natural progression of the three films together.
