Add a CommentOne of the best BBC mini-series I've ever seen, which explains an intresting in-depth history of the country's feudal system & how many of the laws were transported here to the Colonies of America. A "must see" for any history buff, especially those interested in Britain's beginnings & their rise to super power in the world.
