Sor-RY, just because you think you own this place.

Have you ever seen, or read, -anything- about the French revolution that wasn't ideologically manipulated. That's what it's there for. Anyone who talks or writes about it does so because they have a comment to make... That's half what makes it so interesting,compared to programmes about the Tudors where they just chat about Henry VIII's wives.

And if you were ever to write a book about the Jacobins, I would be sure to take everything you say with a pinch of salt, as well.

Most people who watch these programmes aren't stupid, either. They at least have some interest in history and how history works - i.e. this isn't a completely accurate unbiased account of what happened.
What more worries me is that a lot of people don't even know who Maximilien Robespierre is, at all. But these people probably wouldn't watch this programme, because they're just not interested in it.
