    They eventually defeated him about 15 years later, but only after he'd dished out some of the biggest defeats in their history with his motley crew of an army. They became so scared of him that they didn't dare fight him in open battle for years.

    Is it allowed to say xxxxx in the frontroom?

    EDIT: thought better about it.
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    You can't fault the battle set pieces or military dress and costumes. Very good docu-drama and one of the best programs the BBC has put out in ages.
