Cold-Blooded Killer Knights of the Middle Ages

Forget everything the word knight brings to mind. This episode follows five medieval knights who took the oath and did the opposite. Robert de Bellême, the Norman earl who blinded his godson with his fingernails. Thomas de Marle, who tortured prisoners to death in the dungeons of Coucy castle. Roger de Flor, the ex-Templar whose Catalan Company emptied Byzantine Thrace. Gilles de Rais, Joan of Arc's marshal, who confessed to murdering more than a hundred children. And Reginald FitzUrse, who struck the first blow at Thomas Becket in Canterbury Cathedral. Tell me which you'd least want as a neighbor.
