My Lady Jane is Prime Video's latest hit show
has become something of a slow-burn smash hit for Prime Video, as fans have taken to social media in droves full of praise for the playful take on a forgotten part of Tudor history involving Lady Jane Grey, King Edward VI’s cousin who was briefly proclaimed the Queen in England before Mary, Queen of Scots.
However, in this retelling of historical events, a supernatural twist retells the story with humankind being divided into ‘Verity’ or ‘Ethian’, with Ethians being able to transform into animals at will, and vilified by society as a result. The story follows Jane, a headstrong, intelligent woman who is furious to be married off to Guildford, a roguish rake with a dark secret.
Fans may also recognise Lady Jane’s maid Susannah, who is played by Máiréad Tyers. Máiréad is perhaps best known for starring as Jen in the Disney+ comedy Extraordinary.Kate O’Flynn stars as the evil Princess Mary in the show. Fans might recognise her from Death in Paradise as Neville’s sister Issy, and Henpocalypse! as Jen.
