I was watching the film Ironclad (which is about a bunch of guys defending a castle from King John), and like most medieval English movies, it holds to a cliche which irks me; that is, making King John of England medieval English Hitler, instead of the mildly vicious, probably not pious below-average King that he probably was.

So to counter-act that cliche, I'd like to see if there could be a PoD which could make King John a highly successful and beloved King of England, on the level of Richard the Lionheart. Is it possible?
