Richard and John

Having just about got over the hatchet job done on Richard3 on C4 in the UK
last week, I opened my Radio Times (TV Guide) to read that next Monday C5
are showing in their series The Most Evil Man and Women in History a
programme entitled Bad King John.
"King John, whose reign in late 13th century England was characterised by
betrayal, greed, murder and conflict." Sounds pretty fair eh?
Not quite sure how he got into the same series that so far has included Ivan
the Terrible, Attilla the Hun, Adolph Hitler, Rasputin, and Ilsa Koch - camp
commandant's wife at Auschwitz.
I'm amazed they left out Richard really! <Or have they, he asks
rhetorically, beginning to shake in his shoes............. >

Incidentally the history Channel here had a programme on yesterday about
Henry VII. Anyone see it? It was about the man who brought an end to the
Middle Ages apparently. Wonder if he knew that?<g>
