Just watched ”Secrets of the Shining Knight” by Peter Yost on Netflix. It’s a documentary about a smith who uses historical techniques to reproduce parts of medieval body armour and tests it against a matchlock rifle. Well worth watching!

Thanks for the heads up, Victrix, it's a good programme.

It's also available for viewing on YouTube if one can't access Netflix: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ptV0h0Kwjc

Thanks for pointing it out! I thought I'd already browsed all the historical programmes on Netflix.
