Really enjoyed this. Informative, easy to follow with all the interconnecting families, and a great mix of dramatisation and info from experts. I knew the rough history but didn't really understand how everyone was linked. This series tells the story of how the families were all connected and the unfolding of WW1 and the horrendous consequences of decisions made then, and in the run up to it, and of course for the sisters in Russia. Very interesting, sometimes amusing, and also very sad too. I thought the acting was superb. Everyone played their parts extremely well - I especially liked Bertie and Wilhelm.
