Has anyone yet seen this documentary series on The Crusades narrated by Terry Jones?
If so, I'd like to hear what you think about it.
I'm not a historian of The Crusades, and I haven't seen this series in many years, but I was enthralled when I did watch it, as it provided a fascinating overview of the topic interspersed with Terry Jones' creativity, lightheartedness*, and reverence for the specific topic, for history in general, and for the desire to communicate complex topics to as wide an audience as possible.
I need to see this series again.

* Seems almost blasphemous to say this about The Crusades.
