Description

All eight episodes from the second series of the historical drama starring Emilia Schüle in the eponymous role. At the age of 14, Marie Antoinette is made to leave Austria to marry the Dauphin of France (Louis Cunningham). She knows she is expected to deliver an heir to secure the future of the Franco-Austrian alliance but Louis is uncooperative and she is unprepared for the extent of the machinations of the French court and the royal family.

In this season, Louis is trying to keep secret the fact that the country is facing bankruptcy and public opinion is turning against the monarchs. When a thief enters Marie's private chambers, the consequences are devastating. The episodes are: 'The Worst Winter', 'A Poison Pen', 'Treacherous Legacy', 'The Pursuit of Happiness', 'Enemies Assemble', 'Hated, Humbled, Mortified', 'Madame Deficit' and 'The End of the Beginning'.
