Do you know how long each episode is?

These look interesting.

I watched a little bit of the second part tonight and saw the producer or director interviewed last night. I am a little disappointed I think I would like to watch all
4 episodes at once.

I guess this is part of a trilogy. The first series was on The Crusades and his next series will be on The Reformation - I guess to go along with the 500th anniversary of the Reformation.

I would be interested in hearing any other thoughts about this series on The Inquisition.

I really enjoyed it. Thomas Madden belongs to the parish neighboring mine. He's an expert on the Crusades too.

I was shocked by the fact that most of us only have a superficial knowledge of the Inquisition, and much of it false. It was a smear by protestants against Catholics.
