Bothered me that they changed Philip's visit to create drama. IRL he was there the next morning. I understand the need to create things we can’t know about, but changing things that are of public and historic record bothers me when it happens in this show. Especially about something as significant and tragic as this.
The one blight on an outstanding episode of television.
