Maggie Pole: [narrating voice] The year of our Lord 1501. Spain is wealthy, but fears for its political power. Queen Isabella overthrew a thousand years of Muslim rule and must have Catholic allies to maintain her sovereignty. And England faces poverty. Henry VII and Queen Elizabeth have long needed rich allies to deter invasion from France and Scotland. Both believe an alliance is vital to solve their problems, and so a match has been made between their eldest son and heir to the Tudor throne, Prince Arthur, and the Spanish princess, Catherine of Aragon. This alliance will eventually make Catherine the Queen of England. She has been promised this since she was a small child. The fortunes of both kingdoms and the security of Europe rest upon Catherine's young shoulders as she leaves her palace home to make the arduous journey across Spain to the ship that will carry her to England. But achieving her God-given destiny comes at a price. For Catherine may never see her beloved homeland again.

Lukewarm Series Premiere

The first outing was kind of good, but too slow and part unrealistic. Would someone really be allowed to speak to a King like that for just demanding to enter a locked room and where was his Kingsguard?? I'm not into historical period dramas but I tried this because I loved Charlotte Hope in Game of Thrones. I tuned in to see Charlotte Hope (The Spanish Princess), not her lady-in-waiting Catalina "Lina" de Cardonnes. She hogs up too much screen time and her speeches don't add anything. I did some research and apparently the showrunners are doing some forced diversity. That's pandering, which I find insulting. Oh and her nice sweet kind Husband Arthur is the odd ugly one, while his Brother Henry "Harry" is the rude but smooth handsome one - pretty stereotypical. Episode 2 will be a make or break decision regarding this series. No need to waste time on it if it's not good. You can simply Google Catherine of Aragon and read her fate.
