Aired Jan 19, 200850 min
The medieval mêlée tournament was a brutal free-for-all with sharpened weapons, few rules, and one undisputed champion: William Marshal. Military historian Dr Saul David journeys into Marshal's knightly world, training as he did, trying out his weapons, and charting his epic rise from a money-grabbing tournament champion to the Regent of England who saves a kingdom on the battlefield. 4/6.
