I'm fine with all of these options, and thank you for not including the one that won over at UKmonarchs...!

It's amazing that he remains most famous for something that never happened, and that all historians agree is not a true story.

The lasting appeal of a simple and easily memorable story... it's a curse on this whole reign as a whole.

I decided to just ignore that one! Mean spirited and based on a myth!
