The Big Knights is about two knights called Sir Boris (the finest
swordsman in the world) and his brother Sir Moris (not the finest, but
the most enthusiastic swordsman in the world). They live in a castle in
medieval times but they have electricity and hoovers! They go on lots of
adventures with their best friends who are their pets – Horace the dog
and Doris the hamster.We think it is a very
funny DVD. the knights made us laugh a lot. We think everyone will like The Big Knights but is especially good for younger children.

The Big Knights first crashed onto our screens in 1999 on BBC TV, picking up multiple animation awards along the way. When the series finished it left a legacy of Big Knights fans who have tirelessly petitioned for the series to be released on DVD. Their wish has finally been granted, courtesy of Entertainment One.
This DVD – which includes a free re-mastered HD special edition on Blu-ray – features all 13 episodes of
The Big Knights, seven of which have never previously been available to own. As well as Brian Blessed
and David Rintoul providing the voices of Sir Morris and Sir Boris respectively, listen out for some
famous guest stars including Timothy West (King Otto), Prunella Scales (Queen Melissa) and the
inimitable Brian Sewell (Sir Kiftsgate).
