* NeverLiveItDown: Reading through these pages, it's easy to come to the conclusion that Dierdre is a useless FauxActionGirl and perpetual DamselInDistress. The truth is, in fifty episodes she's held captive... seven times. That number is often mitigated by circumstances -- twice she's kidnapped ''along with'' Ivar, and twice more she falls victim to Aideen's pranks, requiring the two of them to team up and help each other escape from the unforeseen consequences of the fairy's magic without any male assistance. Another time there's a straightforward HostageForMacGuffin situation, though she manages to free ''herself'' once the knights' weapons have been given up. That leaves only ''two'' gratuitous kidnappings. It was also something of a {{justified}} trope considering she was the Princess of Kells, making her position as the most politically significant team-member the reason for Maeve's frequent targeting of her. In other words, she does spend more time as a DesignatedVictim than any of her male compatriots, but it's not quite as bad as detractors would have you believe.

Added DiffLines:

* FightSceneFailure: Fight scenes in the show were never particularly good, but one episode stood out. The Knights' weapons got "frozen" so they couldn't use their magical attacks. Said fight consisted of Deirdre and Ivar waving their weapons at the enemy while absolutely nothing happened, which served to emphasize just how little actually happened in a fight when there were no special effects added.
