Tom loves Netflix and has found some good series to watch. In today's blog, you'll read about his recommendation to watch the series called "Knightfall."
ABOUT KNIGHTFALL : This original series on Netflix, in partnership with the
History Channel, picks up in the declining days of the Knights Templar,
after their defeat at Acre and expulsion from their last stronghold in
the Holy Land.
The series has all of the trappings
of really good characters: a corrupt Pope Boniface, a disillusioned
protagonist Simon de La Tour Landry, torn between a forbidden love of
his queen and his quest to possess the Holy Grail, a young farmer who
joins the Temple to avenge the savage murder of
his young girlfriend, a queen trapped in a loveless marriage is driven
by her lust for the more masculine knight with whom she could never
really be free to have a relationship with.
Downton Abbey fans will
appreciate seeing the return of Jim Carter (Carson)
and Tom Cullen (Viscount "Tony" Foyle) to the small screen. Gina McKee
turns in yet another wonderful performance (I've always liked her since
I first saw her in The Forsythe Saga).
