Queen Charlotte A Bridgerton Story Episode 1 Reaction of Syntell and Snootyvegans

Charlotte is brought before the formidable Princess Augusta (Michelle Fairley) and her councilors, and subjected to a rather dehumanizing inspection before being informed that the Parisian wedding gown she brought will not be needed, as they have a simpler, traditional, English gown for her to wear. Her pointed insistence that Charlotte fall in line feels loaded, especially since the exchange immediately follows Augusta's attempt to see if the color of Charlotte's skin comes off if she rubs at it. While it's an effective way to show she is at best ignorant and at worst racist, it's also an odd choice given that later on we see that she has met other Black people before and presumably knows skin color doesn't wash off.

🍼 they DID have 15 children and surprisingly 13 of them made it to adulthood... In a time when 50% of the babies died. However George's favorite daughter did die as a young adult and the thought of her death often caused him to go into a manic attack

Fun fact: the example of faithful friendship and love exhibited by Queen Charlotte and King George in real life directly influenced the matchmaking culture in Georgian and Regency era England. The norm went from arranged marriages to encouraging love matches between partners (as long as they were of the same class and the father approved). Their relationship made a permanent positive change in society and continued on within their own family. Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth the II also were famously in love with their husbands.

I’m so happy y’all are watching this! I binged the whole season in one day. For centuries there’s been countless debates on whether Queen Charlotte was a WOC or not. There’s so many books and papers and studies to suggest that it’s true. From the portraits I’ve seen of her I have no doubt that Charlotte was really a WOC. That’s huge. I love Charlotte and Lady Danbury. They make this entire universe! Loved your commentary about this episode. Y’all are going to love it!

5:02 The man whose crying is Charlotte and George's eldest son, George the Prince Regent (since his father is considered mentally unable to rule) and future George the Fourth (considered to be something of a joke). The woman who just died is his only daughter Princess Charlotte of Wales. George the Fourth and his wife Caroline famously disliked each other before they even met each other and disliked each other even more after they were married - to the degree when he didn't even invite her to his coronation.

Great reaction video! In total, Charlotte had 15 children, but 2 died (Amelia, mentioned in S1, and a child who died quite young). By the time her son married and produced the ONLY legitimate heir, he was 50 years old. And ... his daughter was Queen Victoria. So, Charlotte's awesome comment was a great foreshadowing moment there. Love that line "Virgins to the Left of me, whores to the right." Kept thinking of that song, "Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right." LMAO

Except, one of the sons married a Catholic and so not out of wedlock concerning the Catholic Church but definitely concerning the crown because their father didn't have permission from the king to marry. So their marriage was annulled. And the children wouldn't be able to ascend to the throne anyway because their mother was Catholic.

You see, King George III and Queen Charlotte had 15 children overall, but only 13 survived to adulthood, as two of their sons died at a young age. The granddaughter of the King and Queen was Princess Charlotte, the only daughter of Prince George(King George III and Queen Charlotte’s eldest son and heir)and Princess Caroline, his wife. By the way, King George’s mother is named Dowager Princess Augusta. She’s played by Michelle Fairley, the same actress who played Catelyn Stark like you said earlier. Nice reaction you two. I am so glad you enjoyed the first episode. Keep up the good work and have a good day.

This was the best Bridgerton series, darker than the 2 novel to tv stories yet so rich, interesting, the love between Charlotte/Just George, Brimsley/Reynold or Lady Danbury/herself exude depth and layers in the name of love. The young cast talents certainly owned their characters. This series is all about realness of love, it’s not always rosy and grand love needs understanding and patience to last.

I don't think the series comes back to her skin colour, other than calling her browner than expected and stating that she has "Moor blood", which is North African (interesting people btw). Historians do discuss whether the real Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz was actually dark of skin with african features, but her Moor ancestry would be several generations away and most likely not be showing in her skin. Netflix does have a tendency to stir up the historical pot, both with fiction and documentaries. Also the reason why Whistledown starts this season with the "historical fiction" disclaimer, because Bridgerton is getting backlash for colourwashing and inaccurate portrail of absolute racism in the era. Same with the Austen film last year. Diversity among talent is important, but so is the truth. This series handles it very well.

I don't know how much, and apologies if you already know this, but it is widely speculated by Historians here in the UK that George could have suffered from Bipolar, schizophrenia or porphyria, and as a result when it comes to the time period the original series is set in George is so unwell, he cannot rule, and it known as the Regency and George and Charlotte's oldest son ruled in place of his father.

37:00 I definitely didn't know a lot about the real King George and Queen Charlotte, but I knew that he's referred to as the "Mad King" or "Mad King George," as in mentally ill. And I knew that they did actually love each other, unlike many marriages of that time. Even in Season 1, we see those fleeting moments of love between them. George has a few lucid moments, talks about the flowers in the garden or something that reminded him of Charlotte, and you see the glimpse of the love that had been there. His illness is unknown, but some think he may have been bipolar. And his episodes seem to be triggered by stress (or at least the show seems to hint at that). So then he has the outbursts, like on his wedding night. Older Charlotte keeps asking if he's dead because she's stuck and lonely. She can't remarry cuz he's still alive. He's kinda locked away and "handled" by his servants, so she has no companion.

That's not true. The already said they wrote the script before the Harry and Meg thing went down. There is absolutely no comparisons between them and Queen Charlotte and George other than they are a mixed race couple. Frankly, if meghan was half as strong as Queen Charlotte in this show and made an effort to do some work, she would have been better received.

It was written before that, but there WERE talks about the real Charlotte being darker than expected. It has been argued that Charlotte was directly descended from a black branch of Portuguese royal family (Alfonso III and his concubine Ouruana who was a black Moor, hence them saying she has moor blood).

@@rachell7744 if Meghan did what work? Work to make sure she was accepted in a family that wasn’t interested in accepting her? Or to be accepted by a highly racist media system that called her “Straight Outta Compton”? Even her husband had been at odds with his family and the media many times before that. How was she to make a big impact. The biggest impact they ever made was by leaving, tbh

@@ambriaashley3383 very weird when people blame meghan for how she was treated and say she should’ve “tried harder” to please them.

Love this show! George is not a beast he just knows he has some kind of condition and doesn't want her to know. They did have 15 kids, but only 13 survived to adulthood.

Queen charlotte died 6 months before her granddaughter princess victoria of kent was born. At 18 she became Queen Victoria and was England's longest reigning monarch until Queen Elizabeth ii surpassed her.
