If anyone has watched the Boleyns on BBC 2 they would have seen during episode 1 Thomas Boleyn the father of Anne Bolyen using a telescope to watch a hawk, OK except that this was in the 1490s over 100 years before the invention of the telescope.!!!!!!
I am not sure what references the researchers used.
Probably saw Azeem Edin Bashir Al Bakir played by Morgan Freeman use a very basic one in "Robin Hood Prince of Thieves" and, like the Hadrans Wall scene, thought it must be fact!!
