"I wanted to look at those years that Mary was in Scotland and the part she played in the creation of her cousin Elizabeth, this figure we recognise as one of the great queens who reigned for 45 years. I wanted those two women to play that 12-page scene, you know, because young women don’t get to do that very much."

— Josie Rourke, Director
