Isn't Jamestown, Virginia the settlement that mysteriously disappeared and no one has ever figured out what happened to all the settlers? That would make an interesting, speculative series alright.
ReplyDeletethey were probably all strangled by these women :) Judging from the trailer I can understand why.
DeleteI can't say it enough - historic series just get me!

we do positively adore them! Does Germany have any new ones on their history?
DeleteThe story of Jamestown is an interesting piece of history. I think it would make for some good TV viewing. Hope they don't screw with history though. I know I've said that before, but it is one of my peeves about theatrical interpretations of history.

Tossing It Out
this is British, they don't tend to fabricate a lot.. maybe just a bit :)
DeleteDownton Abbey kept it true to the time period, I am sure that Jamestown will be the same. It certainly look intriguing.
ReplyDeletehope somebody airs it for you in USA too
DeleteEven if it doesn't, we'll find a way to watch it here ;)
DeleteThey do have Sky Atlantic channel, methinks
DeleteSomething bad is going to happen to that guy who dumped slop on the redhead. Yup.
ReplyDeleteI'd sleep with an eye open if I was him
DeleteAh love triangles, bitter rivalries and fierce competition.... Don't you just love the human race?
