Life as a medieval peasant

scott2978:
A fun documentary on the lifestyle of the common peasant in medieval England. 

Sir William:
I won't say their lives sucked but....

Thanks for sharing.

Ian:
I love the Monty Python gang, including Terry Jones (Sir Bedivere and many other characters in the Holy Grail), the host of 'Medieval Lives', but some of the Medieval Lives: The Knight episode is a bit one-sided.  He presents an interesting argument that knights were nothing but self-interested, fame-seeking, sex-crazed warmongers.  Like everything, the truth is usually somewhere between the two extreme points of view :)

Once he moves past that it gets a lot better.

He does spend a lot of time on the Marshal though :)

Thorsteinn:
Good series. :)

Sir Nate:
funny series. And good
