The only significant drawback, in my opinion, is the annoying heel in the credits. A lot of minor inconsistencies and anachronisms did not annoy at all, because everything was done without severe seriousness, clearly jokingly, one might say, funny. It is interesting and pleasant to watch. A good-quality, but without pretensions, light entertainment. And a lot!
I really like the head of the station, Thomas Breckenried, a colorful Yorkshireman with a well-aimed and juicy tongue, the most lively, vivid and original image, just an ornament of the series.

— Oh, I think it's best not. The weak-minded would waste half of their lives observing it.
