I agree. I'd object more if they claiming to be accurate, but getting it wrong. They're so clearly not trying at all, that it doesn't matter half so much. Still, I might have to watch it when Pellinor's out, since he'll drive me mad by hissing and snarling whenever the knitted "mail" appears.
Actually, I never mind inaccurate costume too badly. What I do object to is inaccurate ideology and behaviour - Viking peasants spouting about Parliamentary democracy; medieval ladies going on about women's lib etc. Though I strongly suspect we're going to get that sort of thing in this, too. Ah well. I'll just tell myself it's folk tale/fantasy, and judge it on its own merits.
