Biography - King Arthur- His Life and Legends (1987) S7.E48
We all know the story of King Arthur and the Round Table through movies, books, and plays.
Once again, “Biography” is excellent at showing what circumstances and people are responsible for the Arthurian legend(s). You realize that not only are there different versions, but that versions grew through time as the need arose for a Camelot and different views of the King.
Maybe to keep continuity to the history line, the program is presented more in a series of sound bites, from different authorities as opposed to only one authority at a time talking about life and legends. Also true to “Biography,” there is a spin to the story which leaves out T. H. White (The Once and Future King) and Marion Zimmer Bradley (The Mists of Avalon).
