Sir William:
And cue the music: Everybody was tulwar fighting!

Sir Edward:
I love it when that one guy is striking over the stairway railing, and after the second swing, loses his grip and the sword tumbles away. Most of what they're doing isn't lethal. I'm not sure how much of it is intentionally just intimidation without trying to actually kill each other, versus complete incompetence with a sword. ;)

Indian sword fight, set to Asian music, with medieval weapons.... I can dig it

Agreed; they looked as if they were venting, not actively trying to kill one another. I was cracking up out loud every time they showed that bit- as soon as he lost the sword, it was back up stairs to observe (or just hide).
Sir Douglas:
So the whole fight was over who would speak at a ceremony? Man, being a Sikh is serious business. ;)
