I also appreciate the show's devotion to capes.

Alexander Vlahos (Monsieur), Noémie Schmidt (Henriette), George Blagden (Louis XIV), Elisa Lasowski (Marie-Thérèse)

I confess that I thought for a moment that several of these light fixtures were attached to people's heads. IT WAS BELIEVABLE.

Prince Anaba

In the middle of the first season, Versailles welcomed Prince Annabar (AKA Aniaba of Issigny), who, [I learned from the BBC while looking up something for this Informative Caption](https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/5jPx75byxj2rptb50s5y5nC/versailles-a-guide-to-its-historical-accuracy?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io), was a real person, but who might not have been a legitimate prince -- but Louis BELIEVED he was a real prince and supported his claim to be King of Senegal and basically I would like a TV show about this dude, too.

George Blagden (Louis XIV)

No wonder everyone had so many servants in charge of, like, bleaching their personal linens. How could you possibly eat a nice plate of pasta without soiling your lace?

Alexander Vlahos (Philippe, Monsieur)

A spot of cross-dressing, of course.

Evan Williams (Chevalier), Alexander Vlahos (Monsieur)

"We missed the Lace Lovers meeting for November, Louis. I'M SO VEXED."

George Blagden (Louis XIV)

When this show premiered, I proferred a theory that it's hard for adaptations of this time period to really take off because the man-hair is prone to being a bit goofy.

I haven't decided if I stand by that still, or not.

Elisa Lasowski (Marie-Thérèse), George Blagden (Louis XIV), Noémie Schmidt (Henriette)

I imagine it's fun for the actors to also get to really dress up for once.

Alexander Vlahos (Philippe)

And also perhaps to understand what it's like to wear heels and hose.
