The historical depiction of Toledo was bashed by historians, while former mayor of Toledo wrote in a column he felt "embarrassed" after watching a few episodes. In addition, critics also pointed out the "gratuitous" switch of the characters of
Sancho and
Fernando, when Fernando was the heir-apparent instead of the younger
infante, as well as the condition of
bastard of Sancho, and other historical anachronisms (loose hair instead of
hair up for most women, the horizontal companionship between an heir apparent and his servants, errors in the representation of medieval women, Jews not abiding to
kosher, soldiers "in uniform" or anachronical swords, to name a few). == References ==
