I have written an electronic-mail to mr. BBC and he says they are seriously considering never doing anything about the tudors or the monarchy ever again on your reccomendation, but unfortunately their current shows and films already in production will have to proceed for cost reasons. I am assured that if you can all hold off on shitting your pants every time a black person appears on film pre-1939 without every other character gasping or slurring them for three more years, the queen will die and they can wrap on The Crown and focus on only telling stories about racism, a thing which they are very good at
More directed at the thread in general than you specifically, the 'bothered by black people in mary poppins' energy is strong throughout and I'm just firing them off from the hip
What I mean really is, its fine to say "they should do more POC stories rather than tired Henry VIII adaptations", I agree, but it's a non-starter since they will be doing English royal shit roughly every two months for the next 100 years, that is just the reality, and given that reality this is a positive thing.
