'Mary & George': how mothers prostitute their children to get a degree. Determined to climb the social ladder in early 17th century England, Mary Villiers, Countess of Buckingham, plots to make one of her sons the king's favorite.
The series shows how easy and how difficult it was for a woman like the countess to gain or lose status. The homo nature of the relationship between George and Jaime gives an eccentric and, why not say it, morbid point, to Mary & George.
