The fourth episode was just slightly weaker for me than the previous one. I had a great time again, medieval politics were quite tricky on their own, but King Richard moved through them like a fish in water. Miriam Margolyes was excellent, when I saw her in the movie Stalin as Nadezhda Krupskaya, every scene of hers reminded me of the Spanish Infanta and it was perfect. Fantastic role by Jim Broadbent :-)
