14. I missed watching it when I had Starz

I recently switched over to HBO so I can watch 'Game of Thrones' this Winter. I was told I would recognize a number of actual historical scenarios that were incorporated into the fictional series. Plus I understand there are dragons, and I love dragons.

When it comes to movies and/or series based on true historical figures, especially UK history, I can be a real stickler. The actual stories are always more interesting than the drivel that so many writers concoct around the truth. While I still had Starz I started watching 'The Spanish Princess' and, again, turned if off before the end of the first episode. What a mess.

It's better if I watch something like 'The Borgias' because I'm not overly familiar with that family.
