Mary & George Finale Recap: George Gets His
George gets away with some truly wild behavior, but Mary is the real winner.
Tiny Charles is going to be beheaded by his own people in about 20 years, but in the meantime, he’s singing a song to the Spanish infanta to win her over and thereby establish prolonged peace between England and Spain. James’s extreme reaction makes sense because they have no standing army and almost no ships equipped for war, and yet they’re going up against a massive European power because George felt insulted by one guy. I thought that knowing the broad strokes of history would shield me from any plot surprises, but this was a naïve assumption about the show’s commitment to historical accuracy.
