  2. I am interested in this one. I always love these mini series based on the past greats. I can't imagine in the future anyone will look back on this generation and make a miniseries about anyone here. People just aren't as interesting these days.

    1. Mini series on the current events and politicians will be Nazi and Fascism series, stories of very dark ages when dark politics, tyranny and plague ruled... kinda very mediaeval except with mobile phones and gadgets.
