Recently someone sited the TV series -Conquest- in a discussion
concerning weapons. Someone else stated that they had never heard of the
series nor had anyone else in the thread. I just watched an episode.
Here is some info on the series:

Sadly I can't find any info on the History Channel which is where I
actually saw the episode this morning. It dealt with "Weird Weapons of
the Middle Ages" and was quite cool. I also can't find the series
available on DVD which is a darn pity. I would buy a copy in a heart beat.

So the show does exist and the host actually seems to know what he
is talking about.

It's been out of production for at least a year, and probably two, and
thus isn't likely to be back with new episodes. Pity, too, as it was
pretty well done. (The host, Peter Woodward, is the sone of Edward
Woodward, who played The Equalizer.)

The last episode had a date of 2003. I just wish I could find it on
DVD...
