Knight in Armour is Episode 6 of Season 1. It aired on January 26th, 2003. Here's the synopsis from TV.com:
Actor and fight master Peter Woodward returns to the days of chivalry to find out why personal armor developed--from horn and linen to chain mail to full plate. We visit an armorer's workshop to see how it was made, and our expert team tries on various types, including the classic medieval plate armor, to assess their strengths and weaknesses, and tests fighting techniques with various knightly armor-piercing weapons. Then, we put the armored knight in his proper place--mounted on a charger!

Thank you to Michael for the excellent recommendation, and thank you for watching with us!

April 2016 Memberversaries

4/1/2016

Comments

 
Our members are like family, and we're like the sentimental aunts who make a big fuss over every holiday and birthday. It shouldn't come as a surprise, therefore, that LANCE revels in the opportunity to celebrate memberversaries, the date that a member became part of the LANCE community.  

We recognize memberversaries with different gifts each year. For example, a member's first year is celebrated with a paper gift. Their second is celebrated with cotton, their third with leather, and so on. (We're traditional like that.) We'll give each member a shout out through Facebook on the actual date of their memberversary, but for now, here's everyone who's got a gift coming to this this month!

April 28th, 2013
  ♜  AJ Harrett — 3rd Memberversary (Leather)
​  ♜  Charles Hale  —  3rd Memberversary (Leather)

  ♜  Olivia Lanham  —  3rd Memberversary (Leather)
  ♜  Ric Garcia  — 
 3rd Memberversary (Leather)

You'll notice that these four seem to have a couple years' head start on the rest of us. That's because these are unique memberversaries. These four LANCE members conceived of the original idea of LANCE. They are the creative minds that set out to begin our troupe, and they're the reason we have this thriving community and all of these exciting opportunities laid out before us. Thank you to Ric, Olivia, AJ, and Charles for their drive and vision! We all appreciate it more than you can ever know!

We can't wait to celebrate with these LANCE members, and we look forward to commemorating their memberversaries for many years to come!

Many Happy Returns, LANCErs!
