I was excited to watch this show because I don't really know much about Russian history and was looking forward to it. Lucy totally ruined the show. She is obviously anti-Russian and considers Russians to be lower people than herself. However, she is the one who is rude (interrupting the historian at the Tretyakov gallery) and with low class manners, recording and talking during the church service (just one example of crassness). She seems to be the worst person to do a documentary on another country (it seems like she just visited Russia for the first time for this documentary). Maybe Brits will enjoy this documentary because it keeps saying West is superior to Russia. Look somewhere else for a good history show, because this one only offers Lucy's uneducated personal commenting, and she even blocks the beautiful russian scenery and architecture with herself in most of the frames.
*I am not a Russian, and don't care much about either Britain or Russia, but Lucy's narrative is disgusting.*
