My review has nothing to do with the casting of this show. It has everything to do with the unnecessary twisting and turning of known facts from this historic event. The truth, or as much of it that is absolutely known as fact, is interesting enough without all the extra added interpretations this series provides. Another issue is the extremely slow, plodding way the story unfolds, especially in the final episode. Timing could have been so much better. I managed to complete it but have no desire to see it again.
