not familiar with the tv programme but peter the great had a son called peter?
it's not factual
Wiki:
The Great is a satirical, comedic drama about the rise of Catherine the Great from outsider to the longest-reigning female ruler in Russia's history. The series is fictionalized and portrays Catherine in her youth and marriage with Emperor Peter III (amalgamated with Peter II[5]) focusing on the plot to kill her depraved and dangerous husband.
He did have a son called Peter but he died when he was a baby.
In fact, he had three sons called Peter, all died when they were babies - one on the day he was born, another at a day old and the third died in infancy before the marriage of his parents.
Question Author
it seems a bit daft to combine 2 Peters into one person,if I am watching historical dramas I do like most of the facts to be correct
As shelle said...its not factual. You need to completely suspend belief as you watch it and forget history. It's pure entertainment, that's all.
Sorry...*chelle*
I watched the first 4 episodes and lost interest. I found it all a bit slapstick.
We did the same Prudie. Some of it was really quite funny but it descended into unfunny fairly quickly.
I stuck with it but did get bored.
There's a second series on the way.
// if I am watching historical dramas I do like most of the facts to be correct //

It is a comedy, not a drama.
