That was amazing. I will watch that one again sometime. They even used actual cars from that time period in the 80's, they paid attention to detail on most everything.
Actually, no. Pretty unrealistic. Even Russian Tv-series "The Windsors: Last blood" is more realistic:
------------------
Just recall Russian TV-series "The Windsors: The Last Blood".
--------
The pilot begins with a shot of "London. April 21, 1926. The birth of Queen Elizabeth II." Only an experienced eye will notice that London at the beginning of the 20th century was filmed in modern Yoshkar-Ola. We see how the Freemasons replaced the daughter of King George with the daughter of Satan. The wrinkled foundling is played by Liya Akhedzhakova.
Next, we are transported to 1952, 25-year-old Elizabeth ascends the throne, the young queen is already played by Anastasia Zavorotnyuk, her husband, Prince Philip of Edinburgh, is Gosha Kutsenko, and Winston Churchill is Celine (Dukalis, not Dion).
During the course of the series, we learn how Princess Diana, played by Olga Buzova, cheats on Elizabeth's son, Prince Charles, with an Arab sheikh (Mikhail Galustyan).
We are horrified when strikes of dockers and miners are shot by bestial policemen on the orders of the masculine Margaret Thatcher (the amazing role of Sergei Bezrukov).
We are witnessing how England was swallowed up by the drug-addicted punk culture, which found its continuation in the rave orgies of the 80s: Sid Vicious is played by Sergey Lazarev, and Johnny Rotten is played by Vlad Topalov. Depressive suicidal Ian Curtis from Joy Division is a redhead from Ivanushki.
There is a whole series dedicated to the rise and fall of Prodigy: Kate Flint – Boris Moiseev, Leroy Thornhill – Timothy, Liam Howlett – Dima Bilan. In the britpop season, the Gallagher brothers are played by the Zaitsev sisters from Comedy.
The series dedicated to Brexit, pushed by the homosexual Scottish lobby, is directed by Kirill Serebrennikov based on a script by Mikhail Idov.
The last season covers our time already: the agent of the American special services, Meghan Markle, played by Elena Berkova, seduces Prince Harry (Alexey Panin), beating him off from the royal Dalmatians.
The only positive characters in the series are Russian athletes Bashirov and Petrov, who, having arrived to buy sports nutrition and admire the famous bridges, accidentally witness a Satanic cult led by the defector Skripal, sacrificing cats to Queen Elizabeth (the daughter of Satan, as we remember from the first series).
