    Excellent Bob! I stopped looking for these on-line a while ago as you just couldn't get the whole programme. Time to fire up the streaming media apps :D.

    If they would release these on dvd I'd buy the damn things, but I haven't seen them available anywhere.

    Hi,

    A great series -they must surely release it at some point (plenty of far less worthy stuff hits the shelves).

    Don't forget to check out his website!

    Regards,
    William

    yes I like the man, and his show. I have fought in SCA battles in armor with wooden weapons. I was surprised he didn't mention the battle pulses that are known to have happened even more in that kind of hand to hand then happen now, but still happen in battle now.123
