Ole Bill hooks ’em off their horses darn fast with his new thingumajig – I wonder what he will call it.
Okay you’ll love this, I’ve got a good joke: A Yorkist, a Lancastrian and a Stanley walk into a bar….
Tell me, how do you get your helmet so shiny?
Fie, fie! Not tinned food again!
– I say! Do you hear okay with that bloody helmet on?
– Of course I’m here in the U.K. with my buddy Hamilton!
No Sir Slackbladder , I don’t have a tin opener. You should have gone before we set out!
Don’t tell me…you were in “The Wizard Of Oz”, right?
– Aren’t you feeling hot in there?
– No. I’m too worried about tomorrow’s battle to think about sex right now.
Sorry Richard but, yes, your bum does look big in that.
Oh bother. I shouldn’t have had that ale…
-Don’t want to brag, but my new wife is a lady-in-waiting.
-I’m not surprised!
– I take it you covered yourself for every eventuality, my Lord?
– I don’t want to be a sitting duke!
Listen, I told you references to large choppers are inappropriate for this caption competition!
Have to do everything myself without the wife around. I even learnt to iron my own clothes!
I see you’ve been putting on weight lately, Sir Tons-a-lot!
-My kingdom for a horse!
– There’s none daft enough to carry you, milord. Would you settle for an ass?
Have you been raiding the armoury again, Sir Plus?
All I said was:”Can you give me a lift?” and he just turned his back on me!
Don’t you find it tends to spoil your expectations for a spot of rape and pillage afterwards?
Methinks King Louis the Fat has been sitting on your shield, my Lord.
You call THAT “undress”? Then your wife MUST be a Lady-in-waiting!
– This war isn’t all roses.
-You can say that again!
-This war isn’t all roses…
Hold it boys! We’re supposed to be filming “The Three Musketeers”, not “The Man In The Iron Casque”!
Oh good! They finally got around to gagging you.
“Says he is off to join the STANLEYS!”
Well… I was pretending to play soldiers and I got the tagine stuck on my head!
I wouldn’t advise running around without a number plate, Sir Lancelot du Cadillac!
The driver wont let you on wiv that lot mate, you’ll ‘ave some body’s eye out.
Would you mind pointing that thing the other way before I start to quiver?
Metallica taking a break between recordings on their album:”Kill ’em ‘all”
It was just a misunderstanding, she said she wanted fancied three nights by the sea
You are wearing chain mail over your mouth, your shield is curled at edges and you’ve forgotten to wear your hose. This war’s been too long hasn’t it?
I guess that’s what war does to you. All of a sudden you’re into Heavy Metal.
Now that’s what I call ” armed to the teeth!”
Sir Bounce-a-lot was too worried about the oncoming battle to take off his armour and go to bed. Another sleepless knight….
Dont you think your green skirt makes you look a bit effeminate Percy?
You’re in the wrong time zone, RoboCop!
“What makes you think that wearing the FA Cup on your head is going to ensure victory?”
Right, we’ll get to Bosworth, beat that Henry bloke to a pulp and be back in Leicester in time for last orders at the White Boar Inn, OK?
It’s so “you”, Sir Iocomic!
I would have thought you’d have gone for something a little less……..ironic.
I would think twice before going anywhere near the Lady Gertrude. She has a disarming smile.
– I said we’re curious about you.
– Darn right I wear a cuirass about me!
I’ve shed a lot of blood for this cause. The physician told me I needed a lot of iron.
Who’s your tailor – Giorgio Armadillo?
Just a few more days and you can finally take off that armour as soon as they start the caption contest for MHM 35.
You’ve got the dates mixed up, mate. The Costume Ball is next week. Tonight we’re having the Pyjama Party.
– I’m doing guard duty at the Coliseum Theatre.
– Thought so. You must be the Knight at the Opera!
-Dark Knight?
-No; it’s going to be a full moon.
Amazing how they can replace body-parts these days!
“No. No. No. Your other left foot!”
I feel a bit of a Pratt myself in this new battle get up, I can understand why he won’t turnaround and pose for the picture with us
