The Great Rising of 1381 - Tony Robinson. Pt. 9/11

[Standuble]

Parley was a bad decision in my opinion. There is no way the king could agree to any of Wat Tyler's demands. I think it would have been better had the peasants back down a little after Mile End then carried out abolition of the monarchy later on.

Love the fact that the guy in armour trusts Mike Loades enough to take a whack with a flail unflinching, but when Tony R gets hold of it, the guy scarpers. What does that say about the rehearsal?

It's so sad to think that there are people nowadays who are too quick to think they or somebody are divinely guided.

The world would be better with less "angels".

Tony looked so happy to have a go at that armour'clad guy! :D

[Doodle1Bean]

@TheChundar: So right. Divinely guided my ass!

[TheChundar]

Just like a king to deal with rivals in this way, murder under parley
