[quote=""JoshuaKaitlyn""]I think West was one of the series saving graces, that and the scene when Charles I attempted to get someone's attention at his trial and the top of his cane fell off and rolled across the floor and he was forced to pick it up himself. But it all felt a bit rushed, more episodes with longer scenes. I read somewhere that originally it was supposed to have been twelve episodes long but got chopped to the four that were made.[/quote]
Yes I felt it was too short, too - not sure about 12 episodes but it could certainly have gone to at least 6 or 7, it did feel very rushed, especially towards the end. Oh well, perhaps they only got a budget for 4 episodes.
Thanks for the link, SGM; he could have another career as a TV presenter I think!
