Standard Royal Court: Elizabeth's ministers and councilors for the most part are shown as capable and working well together, if exasperated by coping with Elizabeth's wavering mood swings.

Better as Friends: She tries this with Leicester at some point, but it's never very convincing; come on, if she COULD have made him King, slept with him and had heirs by him, then she would have done so.

Batman Gambit
 Elizabeth I (2005) / int_38d02d44
comment
Batman Gambit: Elizabeth knew the Earl of Essex was going to betray her, so she relaxed the guard on him and did not prosecute him. The Earl duly goes on a mad scheme to ride to court and take her hostage, for which she is well prepared. The Earl is captured, while the Queen's earlier leniency made it clear to everyone she was the wronged party, despite his claims to the contrary.

Artistic License – History
 Elizabeth I (2005) / int_56515a39
comment
Artistic License – History: the miniseries has Elizabeth ride in secret to her cousin Mary I's home-prison to see her face-to-face before deciding her fate. In Real Life Elizabeth and Mary never met: Elizabeth's councilors feared such a meeting because Elizabeth could sympathize having lived through the same trials and hardships in her youth. If the miniseries gets anything right, it's that the Scottish Mary actually spoke with a French accentnote from Mary's childhood married to the French Dauphin Francis II and that by the time of her execution Mary was overweight and in ill health.

Drama Queen: Essex. When Elizabeth is outraged by the miscarriage of justice with Lopez, Essex's reaction is to have himself driven through the streets in a mock funeral procession.

Off with His Head!: Subverted. Elizabeth is very reluctant to have Mary killed. This is later played to full by the execution of, you guessed it, The Earl of Essex - when he is executed, millions of people cheer happily.

Celibate Hero: Elizabeth is one of the most famous in history. Played with in this miniseries as Elizabeth is shown considering a political marriage to the Protestant French Duke of Anjou, with her on-again off-again relationship with Leicester, and her later flirtation with Essex.

Easily Forgiven
 Elizabeth I (2005) / int_f36c4f98
comment
Easily Forgiven: Essex fails to achieve the actual military goal of capturing Lisbon after he disobeys her direct command not to go, but she waves aside his offense when he returns. She also forgives him for trumping up an improper case against Dr. Lopez, but that incident and Frances Walsingham's pregnancy open her eyes more. Robert Dudley gets this several times - whatever he does, she forgives him all his sins and reveals on his death bed that she knows Essex is actually his, but "Lechery doesn't interest [her]"; when Robert briefly goes off topic on his death bed, lamenting their love, Elizabeth brings him back on track by asking that he spoke about "[his] son" - meaning Essex, whom she later tells "Sir, your father needs you". Neither Essex nor Robert deny the paternity. Her willingness to forgive Robert gets to a point where, on his death bed, Robert tells Essex that Elizabeth needs "looking after" and Elizabeth says nothing.

Heroes Want Redheads: Slightly subverted, since it's not clear whether the men courting Elizabeth are in it for her or for the power. Except Leicester - it's clear he wants her for her and has even back when she was a bastard. And she knows it, much to both their misfortunes.
