You haven't mentioned the worst error... vandevere Send a noteboard - 21/03/2011 08:57:29 PM
Right in the very first episode, Henry VIII was usrging his nobles to go to war with France because the French had murdered Henry's uncle...

Uh...

Henry's father had been an only child, so no uncles for Henry VIII there...

He had married Elizabeth of York, daughter to Edward IV, however, and she did have to brothers; Edward V, and Prince Richard, AKA the Little Princes in the Tower, and while it's very likely they were murdered, I can virtually guarantee you the murder wasn't done at the behest of the French King...

That had me doing this...

And this...
If the human brain were so simple we could understand it, we would be so simple we couldn't understand it.

There's too many things wrong in the series to mention them all Helene - 21/03/2011 09:30:39 PM 534 Views
It isn't exactly meant to be particularly realistic. Legolas - 21/03/2011 10:00:31 PM 557 Views
Well, clearly it's not meant to be accurate, otherwise they wouldn't take so much license Helene - 22/03/2011 07:05:14 AM 579 Views
