Legacy
The story of Caroline's marriage to George and her battle to be recognized as queen consort served as the basis for the 1996 BBC docudrama A Royal Scandal with Susan Lynch as Caroline and Richard E. Grant as George IV. Caroline is mentioned in the third series of the BBC comedy Blackadder, in which Mr. E. Blackadder dismisses Caroline as a potential wife for George because she "has the worst personality in Germany" (allegedly "up against some pretty stiff competition"). The 2008 radio play The People's Princess, with Alex Jennings as George IV and Rebecca Saire as Caroline, drew parallels with the marriage and divorce of Charles, Prince of Wales, and Diana, Princess of Wales. Caroline is the subject of Richard Condon's 1977 novel The Abandoned Woman.
