Mary and George (Sky Atlantic and NOW) has Julianne Moore, so it’s never going to be bad. George is sent across the channel by the ruthless Mary so he can learn manners and marry well. But he’s decent and well-connected, so Mary spots a chance to meet the King when he arrives for a visit. Moore is a force of nature as Mary, and stalks the halls of the house looking for King James when he refuses to come down for dinner. Mary and George has swagger, breaks the rules and it’s filthy without being Game of Thrones explicit.
