Subject: Well, I can understand that...and I appreciate your sensitivity. I watched the entire first part. Was it true to the book and was it historically correct concerning costuming and scenery?

[> [> [> [> [> The main thing that seems wrong on style was that everyone was so clean, LOL. Remember, these folks took baths twice a year whether they needed them or not. The fabrics were too rich and some of the colors seemed too intense for vegetable dyes. Still, it looked good and this is entertainment, not history. You wouldn't have enjoyed it as much if they'd been too scroungy. Some of the armor was too late period. The dresses were too long. The layered pants with dresses was good. The scenery was lovely, but England had about 90% more forest then than now. -- Zzoo, 16:19:15 07/16/01 Mon
