Synopsis

"Knights" (Part 2) follows two Brits---a mounted policeman and a polo player---as they train in 15th-century military arts, then face off in a tournament. They're both horsemen, but neither has ever ridden in a 50-pound suit of armor before. They must also learn swordplay and falconry, as well as joursting, on which the tournament will turn. But even on the ground, "an armed knight is like a small tank," says one instructor at Castle Bolton in England's Yorkshire Dales, where some of the training takes place.
