Dune: Prophecy Episode 3. This one dragged for me. Ironically it’s the one that’s adapted the most BH/KJA material.

I’ve been brushing up on a lot of Shakespeare’s History Plays, and noticed a monarchy gap of Henry III & Edward I that aren’t covered by Jacobean plays (EII has a Marlowe, and EIII has an obscure Shakespeare). So of course the cogs are now ticking in my brain as to whether I should do something...
