      Grandma Fitzgerald once said that she felt biographies should be about people you admire, and novels about people you think are deeply misunderstood. Judging from the TV series, the original should be a combination of the above two. It's very nice, but it's too short, like a documentary, slid down the history, spectators wait and see the corners take their places. Cromwell finally hugged Hengba, who do you look like? I don't think it's George Smiley.
