King & Conqueror - Prime

A limited drama about William the Conqueror starring James Norton as Harold Godwinson and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau as William. The cinematography was great, the acting was solid but the script was the weak point. It's compelling TV drama if you don't know or care much about this period of time and the Battle of Hastings. But if you know the history, you will recognize this series as fantasy because the writers just made up crap. I enjoyed it as a period drama piece but smh at how far the script was from actual history. I didn’t hate watching it.

Sat in my office waiting to shoot scenes on Grantchester. Kept my chair warm.

I didn’t know that there were so many blacks in medieval France and England.

I love English history. I saw the diversity in the trailer and nope. Such a shame but I guess there are quotas.

same. if the director won't make an effort to be historically accurate, i won't make an effort to watch

I thought it got better as the series went on. Could have been better, but wasn't bad. And the whole color blind casting thing needs to die already.
