Two very different women, the much married Mary Queen of Scots and the Virgin Queen of England had one fundamental thing in common, one thing that would change the course of history: Each believed in her God given right to sit on the throne of England.

This dramatisation is based on historical documents, letters, reported speech and contemporaneous accounts.
