My goodness, so many people complaining about historical accuracy and "colour washing". This piece is fantasy, it is not intended to be entirely factual, if you are looking for that there are many more tv shows and movies that will suit you.
Secondly, inclusion is not colour washing. Personally I loved this shake up in regency style drama and I applaud the show for making this choice. Not only does it change the formula for this style of tv show but it allows young women and men to see themselves in this context of being desirable, which I believe can only be beneficial.
I believe this show is yet to find its balance of sex scenes, season 1 was soft porn while season 2 was wholly without so much of a kiss.
