Chaucer's Knight | The Portrait of a Medieval Mercenary Jones, Terry [Terence Graham Parry Jones (1 February 1942 - 21 January 2020) was a Welsh actor, writer, comedian, screenwriter, film director, historian, and member of the Monty Python comedy team].

The former 'Python' offers an imaginative and authoritative account of the Knight in the Canterbury Tales, which questions the accepted view of him as a paragon of Christian chivalry, and argues that he is in fact no more than a professional mercenary who has spent his life in the service of petty despots and tyrants around the world.
