Terry Jones

Well there you go.
In 10 minutes Terry Jones does a better job for Richard's reputation than 2
hours of Baldrick (Tony Robinson) on Channel 4!
Good on you Terry. Thanks!

At last! He also has a way of putting things across that is
straightforward and memorable, so I feel it is likely to have a
lasting impact on viewers.
I've found the whole series immensely enjoyable, I haven't
felt 'dumbed down' at all. I'm also very pleased to hear the record
put straight on the Middle Ages - that's something else that really
irritates me AND with the Middle Ages popularly ending with Bosworth
makes it easier for people to believe the Tudors must have been a
Good Thing. I heard Terry Jones'anti-Renaissance radio show too and
had that feeling - At last! the penny drops and all falls into place
(if you'll forgive mixed metaphor)! Why did I have such problem over
the Renaissance and humanism at A level? Answer: because you get told
they were about one thing when they were really doing the opposite,
somewhat like some politicians I've experienced.
