Glenda Jackson was my favourite Elizabeth too.

@blue2765 SHUT UP AND LISTEN.

Actually, Mary wasn't still married to Darnley when she tried for Norfolk.
Marry's first husband, Prince of France, died of a serious tumour caused by an ear infection; her second died from being supposedly murdered by the Earl of Bothwell; and her third, Bothwell in fact, their marriage was annulled after the battle Battle of Langside in agreement with the Lords of Parliament. It's quite complicated to learn - I'm studying the relationship between her and Elizabeth for my a-level.

England's Greatest monarch! No man needed to rule No child. No any Monarchs can take her spot.
-
The difference between Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth is that Queen Mary ruled with her heart and Queen Elizabeth used her head.

@greenleaflink It's not stand alone. It's a documentary Called A History of Britain you can view the entire documentary in Youtube just type History of Britain.

The bit before the title card isn't really relevant. Water dripping off a chain or a burning pole aren't the most British things and nor are they very historical.

@klutzylynn Elizabeth held Mary accountable for her actions. She killed one husband, married his murder, then tried to marry the Duke of Norfolk while still married and overthrow and murder Elizabeth. Mary played the martyr, but she is no martyr for any cause or religion. She and Elizabeth both used religion as justification for their actions, but the truth is Mary was given better justice than she gave to her own beloved husband. Elizabeth used her head, Mary paid the price for her stupidity.

This man seems to be in love with Elizabeth. His narration is kind of creepy.
Actually Starkey really likes Elizabeth, in all his writings and documentaries he speaks very highly of her, he just sees her more as a human, with good and bad sides, instead of glorifying her or demeaning her.

Yeah, it's rather silly how Hollywood tends to present 'ideals' over reality. Like how movies about Christ, or other biblical figures were always so blue-eyed in movies. Oh well.
My favorite 'Elizabeth' was Glenda Jackson. She was amazing.
