Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good Introduction with much eye opening information
Review: This is not the normal glorified account of knights put together by people who know little about the subject, but a well researched video done in the manner that would be expected by a better English production company. It reaveals a lot that most people do not know about knights. The only issue that I would have with it is that there is little on what was happening outside of England. Still one of the better historical videos I have seen.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: good introductory video to knightlihood
Review: This video adaquately explains: how armor developed; how castles developed; how knights developed. It is punctuated throughout with bios of some of the more famous of knights. It is not really all that in depth but if detail is what one wants then one should read a book. All in all it is at least a good viewing to be introduced to knights. This video peeks at how armor is made. Lastly, there are some minutes devoted to how one may get their own bona fide coat-of-arms. As I've tried to imply, it's worth watching.
