A Medieval expert is interviewed by an expert Medieval enthusiast.

One of the highlights, and there are many, is a discussion of feudalism before and after the Norman Conquest. Also, the effects of the Viking Invasion. The roll of Christianity on literacy and English History is also explored. One mistake by the guest. Easter day is not the day of crucifixion. That was Good Friday. Easter day was and is celebrated as the day of resurrection.
