They don´t seem very keen on their marriage.Peter had already showed his lack of enthusiasm concerning his coming marriage in previous scenes , but now we can sense Catherine´s uneasiness too.
The scene with Elizabeth and the Orthodox Priests was actually really good, I kind of want to know more about how the Emperor’s and Empresses of Russia relationship with the Russian Orthodox Church.
As for Elizabeth herself I think she had honestly some kind of respect both for the Gospel and Orthodox priests, even if I also think she had now and then some high thoughts about herself and didn´t allways follow them. Some have claimed she had a drinking problem. Maybe, if so, this contributed to the fact she died at 52, but this I can not know for sure. I respect Eliabeth, and she had apositive influence also on my country Sweden. She abolished for a time death penalty, and that, as I see it, was as well christian in spirit to do, as modern.
The music when Pyotr Feodorovitj and Katarina dance is very beautiful. I guess it is real 1700:ds music. I must know the composer and the piece of music. Please can someone help me with what it is? This couple Peter III and Katarina II are, I think, even if she dethroned him later and maybe had him killed (we don´t know if she did that or not), still grandfathers grandmothers grandmothers grandparents of our present Swedish king Carl XVI Gustaf. I believe that Paul I was really the biological son of Peter, even if Katarina also had a daughter and another son with other fathers. Peter and Paul do have some similarities. Elizaveta somehow fascinates me more than the more well known Katarina.
@@Lily1127channel Wasn't there some handsome kind hearted simple minded serf who she remained faithfulto? ,Alexis Ruzomofsky, her lifelong companion and suspected secret husband. He was enobled later and made a count later.
@@nativedeenfan Yes, he was the one I referred to. Elizabeth openly made him her lover and lived with him even though they weren't married. He sits with her before the dance in this scene btw. I think what she means in this scene is that she asks the Orthodox church to allow them to marry but the father refuses. I don't know if it is because they have lived together in sin for a long time or because of the scandalous difference in rank.
@@Lily1127channel bit of both but definitely a matter of rank. The Russians had rules that someone couldn't rule if they married anyone other than a royal which is what all the current pretenders to the Imperial throne are using to argue with each other that each other's claims are invalid.
@@ArtemisScribe How long before Elizabeth did Russians have that rule? Or was it just interpreted "flexibly" by certain rulers? Peter the Great also married a commoner and it wasn't even a morganatic marriage, he even crowned her. Before Peter there were also cases when a tsar was married to a not royal woman.

Love their outfits! Funny how you can see the apprehension on their faces, and on Elizabeth's face too. The tricky part begins... Thanks for posting!!
I also love the outfits! Catherine's weddig dress is sooo gorgeous! Peter's new blue suit looks very good too.

Tak prekrasno😍😍😍😍❤
Actually they were both 14 in their wedding night and played with toys the whole night instead of
How could they have been 14 in 1745, when they were born in 1728 and 1729 ?
What vain sin was the eminence talking about? The Empress really felt guilty at the mention of that. Can someone elucidate me?
I think they mean that she openly lives together with a man who she is not married to.

Any way to watch this all seasons with subs?
I think all seasons are on Amazon Prime with English subs
@@Lily1127channel Yes they are, I watched most of the series on there.
Elizabeth was A usuper; this should have been the beginning of Ivan the Sixth reign.
