No chemistry
I've just seen Mirren's and this version in a row and I have to say that this Elizabeth and Robert had no chemistry at all. Irons and Mirren said it all with just one look. In addition, Tom Hardy looks nice for the modern audiences -he reminds me of J.Rys Meyers in "The Tudors"- but he has a too 'modern' look and he's too young for the scenes in his last episode.
On the other hand, I have to congratulate the writter for their historical accuracy (I just can't believe yet what they did in the Cate Blanchett movies, urgh!)
