Who would have thought 14th century Europe, especially the nobility, was so ethically diverse? Oh, that's right, it wasn't and they weren't. Putting aside the obvious historical ineptitude, does this function as actual comedy? Not really. It feels forced, delivering a dull dearth of simplistic humour and a sprinkling of ribald nonsense. Any upside? Well its Netflix, so setting, costumes and production values are of a high standard but really that's about it, as far as I can see. In summary, looks good but scratch the surface and its unconvincing and mostly, unfunny.
