Todays film makers should all be made to view this production. Without a single curse word, car chase, or sex scene, this flawless series does credit to all concerned.It is difficult to single out any member of this work for every element of it is exemplary.It simply entertains at every level, while giving a true history lesson. Every person involved in this gem must be very proud,and with every justification.
