Series synopsis
Queen of Oz is a British comedy television series that premiered on BBC One on June 16, 2023. It ended on July 21, 2023. It was created by Catherine Tate, Borga Dorter. It stars Catherine Tate, Rob Collins, Niky Wardley and Jenna Owen.
Princess Georgiana is the black sheep of a fictional British Royal Family. A PR disaster, she's spent her spoilt, party-girl life plastered over the tabloids. On the back of her latest scandal her mother, the Queen, makes the unprecedented move of abdicating her Australian throne in favour of her daughter. It is hoped that giving her some real responsibility will finally be the making of her – and if it isn't, at least shipping her off keeps her 10,000 miles away from London.
