Don't forget "Brave heart" Another bunch of Yank lies.
Is that anything like King Arthur and Merlin The Magician? ^_^
There is little known historical basis for King Arthur.
So any tale could be true or not.
The film stuff is based on Victorian fantasy.

So it was all a fabrication? Sort of a LIE. ^_^
Not all of it. There was an Uther. But he lived long before the days of
plate armour and stone medieval castles.
He lived in the post Roman era.

But it is classed in with Snow White and Red Riding Hood in the UK.
No-one actually believes it , it is legend not history.
We draw aline between fact and fiction.
Unlike the Legend of Davy Crockett for example
Fervently believed to have valiently died at the Alamo by most Yanks.
Who was actually captured running away and executed by the Mexicans.
