I'm very interested in Russia and was excited to watch this series, however it just felt a little too BRITISH to me. Most of the characters spoke in an eloquent English accent, apart from Rasputin who sounded like he was from Yorkshire. Russians that I read about tend to have a blunt, assertive tone especially soldiers, guards, people in power etc. these characters were just lacking that authentic Russian aura. (I hope that makes sense).
Apart from that, I found it to be very interesting and educational, I loved the historians input throughout. It is an exceptionally interesting period in history, and if you are wanting to learn more about Russian history I promise you will enjoy this.
