    I saw the Crusades one. That was quite interesting especially the recaps on the first 2 Crusades, how the people gathered their numbers to go on the Crusades and at the end exactly just how much the 3rd Crusade achieved!

    The tactical overviews were concise enough, they had military experts commenting as well as historians and strategists so there were a few angles presented on the events which made analysis of the details richer (as opposed to just hearing what happened on certain dates in cronological order).

    And I think they did a great job of conveying the effect on the troops of the arrival the King on the ground and the problems with supply and reinforcement so far from home.

    A solid production if you were wanting to learn about the 3rd Crusade.

    There's also a program on this sunday at 9pm
    The Crescent and the cross.

    Looks quite good

    What is the first one on the Third Crusade called? Anyone? I'm not sure if we have it in Canada, but I'm dying to see it!

    Please!
