The costumes in this TV show are a standout feature, adding a layer of visual interest to the production. While the show is watchable and has its moments, it ultimately falls short due to its lack of excitement and reliance on predictable plot devices.
The performances of the cast, including Charlotte Hopes, are inconsistent, with some strong moments but also some disappointing ones.

Despite its positive elements, the show fails to leave a lasting impression.

I find myself watching people bicker about the distinction between drizzle and rain with no hint of subtext or irony in a TV show ostensibly about politics.

This is a poor substitute for watching a better made show like The Crown.

If you're looking for a historical accurate tale you should not watch this. There are more than "some events/persons that have been altered" for the story. The whole timeline of events is messed up. Meaning, many of those events happened at other times than shown here. This isn't a history lesson, it's a scripted drama. Entertainment. And that's totally fine with me because it does not claim to be anything else.
Historical drama is one of my guilty pleasures and this feels like watching something akin to Dallas or Denver in medival England. The costumes are amazing and having the oportunity of filming in this great locations is a luxury that makes this look so much better. The spanish accents are a little bit thick and sometimes it was hard to understand the actors. But in general they did a great job and I was especially taken in by Charlotte Hope.
Even from this mostly fictional depiction I gather that Catherine of Aragon must have been an interesting person and I might even take the time reading up about her. And if a show manages to do that I can only rate it as a success.

Rich visuals and a compelling take on history in Season 1. The pacing drags at times but altogether great for history afficionados.

A mediocre series that becomes worse even in an S2 that no longer adapts the novel by Philippa Gregory, which already introduced elements of fiction, but is a ridiculous fantasy born from the imagination of Emma Frost. At least S1 had Margaret Beaufort, a wickedly funny character. Catalina de Aragón turned into a cartoon with moments that produce embarrassment. Any similarities to reality is purely coincidental.
