Wednesday, 10 January 1973

'Grinding his teeth and axe is the brutish Mark of Cornwall (Brian Blessed) who appears in ARTHUR OF THE BRITONS (HTV, 6.30-other regions 4.50).  There is a lot of ironmongery in "Arthur," but in this excellent series there are no scenes which would upset the children.'

This photo and short paragraph was to publicise the episode, "The Duel", in which Mark of Cornwall spends most of his time bullying Llud, a battlefield is left strewn with corpses, and Llud and Mark have a big fight.  Clearly children were expected to be made of sterner stuff in 1973.
