Rated - 4 starsNot Enough Info

A customer from Glasgow , 20/11/2005

This would have been a better if made into a mini series with more information on other characters too, they should have done an Edward the Seventh job on this with plenty of detail on all the main people, overall it was ok but lack of detail made it not worth a second watch.

Rated - 2 starsbertie and elizabeth

A customer from north east , 25/11/2004

This was an entertaining period drama that seemed to have very little to do with actuality. The young Queen Mother was portrayed as a saint - radiating kindness and compassion. Incredibly one dimensional and one sided.

Not one believable character. Totally distorted view of our past.Inconvincing dialogue. A waste of some good actors' time!
