"...I know you think yourself cleverer than me, and in truth, you may well be right. But even the cleverest need LEARN, and for that, they must LISTEN to THOSE WITH EXPERIENCE! Trust me, sister, I have PLENTY!" - Now THAT is a real bull's-eye as well as a real understatement. For out of Henry VIII's three surviving children, Mary is indeed the one with the MOST EXPERIENCE, and EXPERIENCE that is one of a kind at that: once upon a time, she had been their father's sole legitimate heiress, and viewed and treated as such, then she became illegitimate, and had to contend with being a powerless pawn in the ceaseless, cruel, and merciless games between the Kings of Europe. Oh, and of course, she had seen, heard, and SURVIVED Henry VIII's very best and very worst. Yes, she could have taught and helped her siblings SO VERY, VERY MUCH if they had not let their respective differences and the surrounding vultures tear them apart. 😞

this is the first show about this period that really dives into the relationship between mary and elizabeth. i wish there was more records as to what their relationship was like. it must have been so incredibly hard for both women

[@creativewriter3887]

These dramatizations tend to be "off the rails" historically. Elizabeth's "success" as queen was predicated upon what Mary did as queen when she finally was able to ascend the throne. Mary HATED Elizabeth and more importantly what she represented. Her very existence/being was the product of her mother being shunt aside for Anne Bolynn. Her father treated both she and her mother awfully and separated them when Mary was in her teens; not allowing Mary even the courtesy of attending her mother's funeral when she died. Then Mary was essentially declared a bastard, confined under house arrest and essentially tortured and Anne commanded that if Mary even suggested she was an heir she was to be smacked/struck. No wonder Mary became almost fanatical in her attempts to assert not only her place as Henry VIII's daughter but also to recreate the world as it had been when her mother was queen---with one heir, one queen and one religion.

[@hakkyounotenshi]

@@creativewriter3887 You are right in saying a good portion of Elizabeth's success as Queen was founded on what Mary did before her. When Elizabeth ascended the throne, no one questioned the fact of a ruling queen. Mary has already fought that battle. Mary had also begun several reforms that Elizabeth's government claimed credit for. The relationship between Mary and Elizabeth was far more complicated that most portrayals show us and honestly much more tragic. Mary hated Anne Boleyn. That fact is utterly unquestioned. In truth, Mary loved Elizabeth through her childhood and there is even evidence to show that Mary is the one who supported her financially in the aftermath of Anne Boleyn's fall from grace and execution. She wanted Elizabeth to join her household after King Henry's death, but Elizabeth choose to live with Katherine Parr. Mary only came to hate Elizabeth when Elizabeth became a threat to her and her aspirations of a catholic England.

[@theshadowling1]

@@hakkyounotenshi It's shortly after Mary comes to the throne, when Elizabeth reveals she is a loyal daughter of Henry (Elizabeth was utterly determined to gain his approval), and refuses to convert to Catholicism. She publicly refuses to attend a Catholic Mass several times, and it pushes Mary into hating the sister she once rode alongside to seize the throne from a usurper with an army of the people.

[@muttstersmart]

@@creativewriter3887 I don’t think they ever really hates each other, even when Elizabeth became a threat to Mary. Undoubtedly, Mary hated Anne Boleyn (Elizabeth’s mother) because it caused Mary to lose her claim to the throne and that her mother Catherine of Aragon was no longer the Queen. It also suggested that Catherine had been living and sleeping with a man who was not her husband for 24 years. Thus would have completely destroyed Catherine’s reputation. As such, they refused to accept it and were refused permission to see each other. Catherine and Mary were strong and prayed that the loving husband and father they knew would see sense. But he didn’t. In the end, Henry had Mary sent to work as a Servant to her infant half-sister. Mary refused to do most of her work and also wouldn’t eat with the other Servants. After Anne Boleyn was beheaded, Mary was restored into favour by Jane Seymour, the third wife. After this, Mary became a mother-figure to Elizabeth. They were actually close for a long time. During Edward’s reign, they were still close. It wasn’t until Mary came to the throne and found Elizabeth threatening when they lost their closeness.

[@cardwitch91]

I do love this portrayal as Mary. You can feel that this rebuke is coming from a place of love, right down to her telling Elizabeth not to outright tell her the truth, so it can’t be used against her. It helps us see that a reason why Mary never could bring herself to be rid of Elizabeth, as so many of her Catholic courtiers wanted, was because she loved her little sister. It would’ve been painful, caught between her love for her God and love for her family. Plus, all too often, portrayals of Mary have her hold Anne Boleyn’s actions against Elizabeth, completely ignoring the fact that 1. Mary spent enough time with her siblings and would’ve loved them for themselves and 2. One of Anne’s last request was to send Lady Kingstone to beg Mary’s forgiveness for not doing better by her, which was carried out. As a true Catholic, I can’t imagine Mary wouldn’t have wished to hold a grudge against Anne because she knows God is the only judge, so the idea she’d have continued to hold that anger against Elizabeth is unfair to Mary.

Mary's right, it's safer for Elizabeth to trust her secrets to God than any living person, including her own sister. Mary is smart enough to admit she is only human, and humans are easily swayed regardless of how loyal they are.

[@h.calvert3165]

Mary loved Elizabeth. She had almost no one left to love, after her mother's death. She was also too Christian to blame an innocent child for the sins of her parents. Then, when they were both in & out of favour, they had so much in common. Elizabeth was a loveable child, as well, bright as all Tudors were, & impish. I believe she became for Mary the child the 17-years-older woman should have had for herself by 1536, if her life had been sane. And by the end of Mary's reign --- painfully ill, death looming, all her precious reforms facing failure, her advisors all clamoring for the death of Elizabeth --- I believe it was only that complicated love, so pure of heart, which stood between the younger woman & the axe. 🪓

Just found this clip and there's so much to say on the relationship between the real life counterparts. And also a lot to say on the conversation where in some instances the sisters didn't even have to say anything to each other to understand each other, which was brilliant. Thomas Seymour was a straight up pig, Catherine Parr wasn't the first "queen" he made a play for, he tried with Mary I and failed, probably because she saw right through him, and I feel like when Mary mentioned the part about Elizabeth listening to the experiences of others was her subtle way of saying Thomas may have tried to woo her, but if she had straight up said it it would also compromise her, since Mary was seen as this paragon of virtue by many (before her Bloody Mary arc) I also resent that these children were used by people and some of them from their own factions...

From an early age Elizabeth would have been aware that she and Mary were on opposite sides due to their religious beliefs. In reality they were not close. Mary of course never forgave Anne Boleyn, Elizabeth's mother, for the harm she had caused to both her and her mother. Mary wanted Elizabeth to become a Catholic and return England to Catholicism. Elizabeth of course did not do this; however, she had to use all her wiles during Mary's reign in order to survive. Before Mary died she requested to be buried with her mother Catherine of Aragon and a tomb to be erected for both of them. Elizabeth ignored this request and she shares a tomb with Mary. Indeed Mary Queen of Scots, Elizabeth's cousin, was in exactly the same position Elizabeth had been during her house arrest, Elizabeth knew every trick in the book and exactly how to trap Mary which led to her execution.

Every comment on videos of this show seems to be full of “fans” of Mary who are convinced this show is righting past wrongs and are spreading anti-Elizabeth propaganda. If a lot of it is due to taking this incredibly inaccurate show as gospel, then the main issue with this show is in the casting that is leading people astray. Mary is played by a much more skillful and convincing actress than the actress who plays Elizabeth. In fact, I find the actress playing Elizabeth to be the weakest actress I’ve ever seen play her. I like that this show is giving Mary some more character and depth but they’re overdoing the “rewriting” history to “reveal new truths” with this. This show is also overdoing the innocent, young naive girl who starts out of her element and will “become” Gloriana. Elizabeth was never this confused acting even when she was confused and unsure how to wade through the next predicament she was put in. I hope viewers know this show is most fanfiction written by people who simply are being guided by seeing more accurate portrayals from older decades and deviating from it to provide a “fresh” perspective…even if the fresher view is more inaccurate than the inaccurate traditional perspective.

[@QWERTYUIOP-wu6ht]

The fans of Elizabeth started it first since their time up to now. Spreading anti-Elizabethan propaganda is just a revenge for the disgrace they caused to Mary. Anti-Spanish, Anti-Catholic and Hispanophobia were also famous during the time of Elizabeth and not to mention the Spanish black legend were also spread. If there's someone who's rewriting history, it's the protestant writers who discredited and disgraced both Mary Tudor and Mary, Queen of Scots.

[@Alejojojo6]

The fact that Elizabeth chose to bury herself with Mary says loads! It implies that she saw Mary as her family. After all her mum died when she was just 3 and Mary took pity of baby Elizabeth and took her to her care at least in the early years. They even bonded a bit more when both were rejected by their father having so much in common. So it has to be assume that Elizabeth had some misfeelings, but saw Mary a bit like her motherfigure. During edwards reign she indeed was as they both were now free from the burdens of succession. When Mary reigned, she almost signed Elizabeth's death sentence when the devout protestant plot was discovered. Yet she didnt last minute cause she couldnt kill her own sister, her remaining family when logically, it was what made the most sense. Mary and Elizabeth walked together to Mary's coronation in the same charriot parading united through the streets of London. And Mary had Elizabeth made her heir instead of Mary of Scotland who had assured catholicism in the country. So she chose her sister above her religion even f that implied undoing catholicism. And even in their burial Elizabeth says "Here we stand as sisters". Also most of the tricks she learned she got them from Mary btw. So their relationship is way closer than most people believe.
