What a letdown.

You see, when you create this type of series there's a certain audience that you really should please. I understand that this is an adaptation from a fictional book, but what I don't get is why destroy the whole ambiance of the time.

I'm all for women being treated fairly, I'm a woman after all, but pretending that women had that amount of agency during the middle ages is a joke.

The main reason Margaret Beaufort's story is so amazing is that she was a political powerhouse in a world where she had no agency, no support and no choice whatsoever.

How can a female politician, who is supposed to be a political mastermind, go to the middle of the battlefield and steal the thunder of the new king?

Is she suicidal?

Incredibly disappointing and childish.

I huge letdown.
