Somehow this snuck up on me.

Loved the novel by Ken Follett (though it was semi-plagiarized from Edith Pargeter's 1963 Heaventree Trilogy).

Not sure of the series run details, but love McShane. Hope this is good.

First two episodes were outstanding, though E1 (the 2 hr premiere) suffered from the typical problem of multi-character multi-arc drama - trying to introduce everyone and explain things.

It's been decades since I read PotE so it feels fresh to me, yet I can follow plot threads easily because I recall key historical events. (It helps i was a huge brother Cadfael fan, which is also set during the anarchy between Henry I and II.)
