I loved this ''saga'' when I was 15 years old...

I remember watching this series when it first came out on Canadian television. The pet peeve I have about most of these historical epics is that the actresses' hair and make-up does not reflect the period represented. In this case you'll observe that they have the 60s big hair and eye make-up.
