S1 Ep01 The Knight with the Red Plume

JMadureira — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 17:45:50 +0000

In 12th century England, the legendary Sir Lancelot du Lac battles injustice, greed, and prejudice while serving King Arthur and the knights of the Round Table.

The Adventures of Sir Lancelot

Episode 1: The Knight with the Red Plume

Sir Lancelot desires to become a Knight of the Round Table, but he has to prove his mettle by going through a series of tough and strenuous tests.

None of the episodes were ever copyrighted with the Library of Congress.

Raiding the tales of Arthurian lore, this British show follows the stirring adventures of dashing Sir Lancelot (William Russell) and the Knights of the Round Table. Queen Guinevere (Jane Hylton), King Arthur (Ronald Leigh-Hunt), and Merlin (Cyril Smith) are among the supporting cast in this 1950s series that later aired for a successful run on American television (a rarity at the time).
Although the series is supposed to be black and white, a number of episodes are mysteriously in gorgeous color.
In all of Arthurian legend, the most famous of the Knights of the Round Table is undoubtedly Sir Lancelot. This series, painstakingly researched by the History and Literature Departments of Oxford University, re-creates some of the notable exploits of the famous knight, as well as the deeds of the other members of King Arthur’s court.

Cast and Crew:

* William Russell Sir Lancelot
* Robert Scroggins Squire Brian
* Cyril Smith Merlin, the Magician
* Peter Bennett (III) Leonides
* Martin Benson Hassie
* Bruce Seton King Arthur (eps 1-3 only)
* Jane Hylton Queen Guinevere
