I came away from watching this with a better understanding of how and why mental health treatment and asylum reform started back in the late 1700s. Why even after "Treaties on Madness " had been around for many years, how the old bleeding and purge methods still permeated the medical profession. A very enlightening show.
Many great interviews with professionals and historians. The acting sequences were short, and did give good visuals of what was really happening.
It also portrays king George III, in a compassionate light, along with his grief over the death of his 2 young children.
Overall, a pleasure to watch and learn.
