Requiem for a Crown Prince (1x4)

:

On the morning of the 30th January 1889, the 30-year-old Crown Prince Rudolph of Austria-Hungary is found dead at the imperial hunting lodge at Mayerling in what looks like a suicide pact with his 17-year-old mistress Marie Vetsera. As well as dealing with their personal tragedy and loss, the Emperor Franz-Josef and the Empress Elizabeth are faced with the difficult task of covering up what really happened in hope of avoiding the potentially major public scandal.
