Mary Queen of Scots
Was Mary Stuart an ambitious plotter who would stop at nothing to realise her dreams?
Born amid the turmoil of 16th century British society, Mary Queen of Scots was a leader trapped between Scotland and England, Catholic and Protestant ideologies, as well as love and duty. But she was also a woman with burning ambition, and her obsession with securing the English throne would define her life, and death.
So, was Mary Stuart a plotter who would stop at nothing to realise her dreams? Or a wronged woman, manipulated by those around her? And did her dying father鈥檚 prophecy about her role in Scotland鈥檚 history prove correct?
