What do you do when you have a vanity project in mind but it's too lacklustre for YouTube and too long for TikTok? You convene your family and closest friends and slap it together anyway, using the aforementioned family and friends to pump your IMDb ratings and reviews sky-high in an effort to suck the unsuspecting into a viewing.

The fact that most people (including most of your nearest and dearest) would've abandoned the viewing within minutes means nothing to you, as long as you can say "look at all them views!"

There aren't enough drugs in the world to make this even a tolerable, let alone passable, "movie." Anyone who hasn't undergone a double lobotomy would be well advised to simply laugh this one off and avoid viewing at all costs.

... they had obviously-machine-stitched clothing made of man-made fibres, wore perfectly crafted boots Jimmy Choo would be envious of, and all had meticulous manicures. It was a time when high-maintenance trophy wives could single-handedly slay legions of muscle men with a single blow of the sword whilst never once getting even grazed by a passing arrow.

Yes folks, throw out all the history books you've read; in reality (if this rolling pile of drivel is to even be passingly believed) everything was the same two millennia ago as it is today, sans mobile 'phones - though I'm sure they'd have tried to squeeze them in if they could figure out a way.

I really don't know whom this is supposed to appeal to - the Mills & Boon crowd? If you're after action, there're far better shows. If you're after sex/nudity, there're far better shows.

Even Monty Python and the Holy Grail was far more historically accurate than this.

As another reviewer suggested, the characters depicted in this show seem like they were dropped on their heads at birth. The "antics" (using the phrase very loosely here) could be passable if being played by seven-year-olds in a show aimed at pre-schoolers, but seriously, their intellect makes Ali G seem like a rocket scientist in comparison.

I've known many Irish people, and I've known many English people, and this show smacks of something the English made in an effort to perpetuate the negative tropes aimed squarely at what they consider "the dim Irish."

Pretty pathetic all 'round; I have to wonder what level of intellect one must have to actually find this entertaining.
