Knightfall takes viewers inside the medieval politics and warfare of the Knights Templar, the most powerful, wealthy and mysterious military order of the Middle Ages who were entrusted with protecting Christianity's most precious relics.

Knightfall begins after the fall of the city of Acre, the Templar's last stronghold in the Holy Land, where the Holy Grail is lost. Years later, a clue emerges suggesting the whereabouts of the Grail and sends the Templars, led by the noble, courageous and headstrong Templar Knight Landry (Tom Cullen, Downton Abbey, Gunpowder), on a life-or-death mission to find the lost Cup of Christ. From their battles in the Holy Land, to their clash with the King of France, to the dark events leading to the demise of the Templar Order on Friday the 13th, 1307 – a date which became synonymous with bad luck – the story of the Knights Templar has never been fully told until now. Focusing on themes such as belief, sacrifice, politics, love, power and revenge – Knightfall goes deep into the clandestine world of this legendary brotherhood of warrior monks to find out who these knights were, how they lived, and what they died believing.

No one else looking forward or interested in this? The trailers look good.

I didn't even know this existed until just now.

Yeah, I'm down for this one. Hope the PC crowd doesn't kill it or turn it into 'social justice' rant.

This sounds really interesting , I'm definitely going to check this out and give it a watch . I've done some reading in the past on the crusades and this period in history , and I've always found it fascinating. I really want to see how they put this across on the screen . Hopefully they don't mangle the history to much  :)

First episode last night. So far, like my 401K, good but not great. I'll be back because I am easily entertained and I like men wearing long, red & white gowns.

Good enough to keep me watching for another episode. The Siege of Acre part was pretty good.

It was ok...kind of generic and didn't really grab me the way Vikings does. Then again, Vikings took a while to grow on me.

BTW last night's Vikings was awesome.

I'm about to wrap up season 3 of Game of Thrones. No way it's better than that.  ^-^

Did the Vikings grab you in your special place?
