you can’t make a silk purse out of the Tsars ‘ere……………………
..nor,to be fair,do the makers of “Nicholas and Alexandra attempt to diminish the cold indifference of successive Russian Kings towards the suffering of their people.But,for the peasants it made little difference who was in power over them – indeed it is at least arguable that they would have been better off remaining under the unelected aristocratic despots than under the unelected proletarian despots that succeeded them.If you had a few hundred grand recently you could have bought some relics of the last Tsar from an “impoverished” branch of our own dear Royal Family that put them up for auction despite,arguably,their being owned by the Crown Estate.Historically,Nicholas was famously refused asylum in England by His cousin King George the Fifth.He’d probably have more luck today. Presumably his majesty was frightened of a backlash from the exiled Russians in this country. From then on the Tsar’s fate – and that of his family – was sealed.

Nicholas was a weak man dominated by his wife and his advisors.If not a reluctant monarch he was certainly not an enthusiastic one. But theoretically he was the ultimate power in Russia and,by apathy as much as anything,failed to make any efforts to prevent the deaths of millions of his subjects. After his downfall his successors deliberately caused the deaths of many many more millions of his subjects.And so it goes. Mr Michael Jayston plays Nicholas as a victim rather than an instigator of events.Sensitive,a loving husband and father,he hardly seems like the last Absolute Monarch.It appears that if Lenin had shouted at him he would have burst into tears. Mr Tom Baker – a stranger to restraint – plays Rasputin to the hilt. Miss Janet Suzman,pipped by Hanoi Jane at the Oscars,commands attention as the Tsarina.She is clearly the dominant figure in the relationship but is clever not to let it show to the many politicians and hangers on who haunt the palace. There are parts for many well – known British thesps who do not have to move out of their comfort zones.An honourable exception is Mr Ian Holm who succeeds in making a ruthless unpleasant but honourable man seem believable. Pragmatically,the Communists could not be blamed for wiping out the whole Romanov family,any survivor could have formed a rallying – point for Royalist support at a stage when the Glorious Revolution was not universally popular. One can only hope that the end was as quick and brutally effective as shown in the movie. Having offered the people peace,Lenin and co. then set Russia on a course of unparalleled blood – letting.No one had the stomach to oppose them. If King George the Fifth had had more moral courage perhaps an opposition movement might have been born. His side of the story is offered in “The Lost Prince” with a portrait of the Romanovs at Osborne House that make the events in that cellar seem even more horrific.
