As a stickler for historical detail, and devoted Anglophile, I wasn't sure what I would think of this series. I needn't have worried-- this is a terrific, well-done series centering on Queen Elizabeth II and the Windsors, picking up the action just before the death of George VI and her coronation. I have a few minor quibbles, such as about modern behaviors creeping in here and there that seem a bit anachronistic, but the overall product is so engrossing, beautifully shot, and well-acted, that they are quickly forgotten as you become caught up in the endless drama that is the British Royal Family. With 70+ years of Elizabeth's reign and related history to draw from, this series may have no end in sight. I hope the subsequent episodes continue to be as high quality as this first season.
