The eerie hum of thousands of potentially deadly arrows pouring down on to the field of Agincourt is set to be recreated for the first time in six centuries.
An ambitious project is underway to allow up to 1,000 archers to recreate Henry V’s celebrated victory in northern France.
It was 598 years ago today – also a Friday – that the English king’s heavily outnumbered army defeated a French force close to the small town of Azincourt, as it is spelt in French.

I wish I could be there to see this.
