WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:05.000 The Third Crusade failed in its major objective, the capture of Jerusalem. 00:05.000 --> 00:13.000 After a year's unproductive skirmishing, Richard made a three-year truce with Saladin that permitted the Crusaders to hold Acre. 00:13.000 --> 00:21.000 The Christians retained Jaffa and a thin coastal strip that gave Christian pilgrims free access to the holy places. 00:21.000 --> 00:29.000 During the Crusade, Richard is said to have insulted Leopold V of Austria by stamping his standard into the dirt. 00:29.000 --> 00:32.000 It was an act Richard was to regret. 00:32.000 --> 00:37.000 For Richard, the Crusade was now over and he began the homeward journey to England. 00:37.000 --> 00:43.000 Put ashore by bad weather, he now found himself in Austria, the home of Leopold V. 00:43.000 --> 00:49.000 Richard tried to disguise himself as a peasant, but he was recognised and captured by Leopold, 00:49.000 --> 00:56.000 who in turn handed him over to the Emperor Henry VI of Germany and imprisoned in the castle of Dürrenstein. 00:56.000 --> 01:02.000 Richard spent over a year in prison and rumours spread throughout England over the missing king. 01:02.000 --> 01:06.000 There is a legend that Richard was found by his devoted troubadour Blondel, 01:06.000 --> 01:13.000 who travelled Europe singing a ballad outside each castle and waiting for a reply that only the king knew. 01:13.000 --> 01:18.000 Richard was released only on the transfer of literally a king's ransom. 01:18.000 --> 01:27.000 The colossal sum of 150,000 marks was demanded, an amount equivalent to 34 tons in silver. 01:27.000 --> 01:33.000 The raising of the ransom money was one of the most remarkable fiscal measures of the 12th century 01:33.000 --> 01:38.000 and gives striking proof of the prosperity of England at that time. 01:38.000 --> 01:44.000 Richard returned only briefly to England to suppress a revolt raised against him by his brother, 01:44.000 --> 01:49.000 the notorious Prince John, and to raise yet more funds. 01:49.000 --> 01:55.000 Richard now wanted to win back many of the French provinces lost while he was on crusade. 01:55.000 --> 02:02.000 For such a brave and noble man, King Richard's death came about in a rather strange way. 02:02.000 --> 02:08.000 In Chalus, Aquitaine, a peasant ploughing fields came upon a treasure. 02:08.000 --> 02:12.000 This treasure consisted of some gold statues and coins. 02:12.000 --> 02:18.000 The feudal lord claimed the treasure and in turn Richard claimed the treasure from the lord. 02:18.000 --> 02:23.000 When the lord refused to hand it over, it prompted Richard to siege the village. 02:23.000 --> 02:29.000 Now during the siege, Richard was riding close to the castle without the protection of full armour. 02:29.000 --> 02:33.000 He spotted an archer with bow in hand on the wall aiming a shot at him. 02:33.000 --> 02:37.000 It is said that Richard paused to applaud the bowman. 02:37.000 --> 02:40.000 He was struck in the shoulder with the arrow. 02:40.000 --> 02:47.000 An infection set in and Richard the Lionheart died on April 6th 1199. 02:47.000 --> 02:53.000 He was buried in the Fontvraud Abbey in Anjou, France. 02:53.000 --> 02:59.000 So, part four, the warlords, was my final appearance as King Richard in Doctor Who. 02:59.000 --> 03:05.000 I did however return to Doctor Who one final time as Scaroth, last of the Jaggeroth, 03:05.000 --> 03:10.000 alongside Tom Baker in the 1979 story City of Death. 03:10.000 --> 03:15.000 I remember a lot about this production because it was much more recent frankly. 03:15.000 --> 03:27.000 It was an extraordinary part to play because it was someone who took part in every single aspect of the history of the country. 03:27.000 --> 03:32.000 And not in the country, in the world. He was always there in some different guise. 03:32.000 --> 03:37.000 Some of you may remember the flash sequence in the last episode when he gets all the, 03:37.000 --> 03:41.000 or lots and lots of his characterisations just flash before you. 03:41.000 --> 03:46.000 But I think there were three main ones actually in the story itself. 03:46.000 --> 03:51.000 My favourite was Count Scarlione. 03:51.000 --> 03:55.000 Lovely costume and all that. 03:55.000 --> 04:02.000 And I got the part I think of Scaroth because Michael Hayes, the director, who'd also been a director, 04:02.000 --> 04:07.000 one of the directors on An Age of Kings, liked me very much and said, 04:07.000 --> 04:10.000 I think you'd look funny with green spaghetti on your face. 04:10.000 --> 04:16.000 And that's when Scaroth was being Scaroth in the very beginning of time. 04:16.000 --> 04:23.000 The make-up did look like a great pile of green spaghetti and it was very difficult getting the coat and the jacket and the shirt. 04:23.000 --> 04:28.000 And he'd all round it so we had to have a special one made for when he emerged as the creature. 04:28.000 --> 04:36.000 But I'm reminded that many years later I did the film of The Empire Strikes Back, a Star Wars film. 04:36.000 --> 04:41.000 And in that of course is Darth Vader, the great Darth Vader. 04:41.000 --> 04:47.000 Well it could have been anybody under that plastic carapace of Darth Vader. 04:47.000 --> 04:51.000 In fact it was an actor and as Scaroth it could have been anybody underneath that. 04:51.000 --> 04:54.000 Because not a lot of dialogue came out of Scaroth. 04:54.000 --> 05:03.000 So that's one of my more anonymous impersonations, was the actual Scaroth as opposed to Scarlione and the other people. 05:03.000 --> 05:06.000 The make-up session for that was a very unpleasant business. 05:06.000 --> 05:13.000 It was putting a great big plastic mask all over my face and you had to stick it so that it didn't move. 05:13.000 --> 05:17.000 And it was extremely uncomfortable, extremely uncomfortable. 05:17.000 --> 05:26.000 About so uncomfortable as my make-up in the Indiana Jones film which I did in which my face was blown away over about 15 seconds. 05:26.000 --> 05:28.000 Some of you may remember that. 05:28.000 --> 05:39.000 Screaming. 05:39.000 --> 05:48.000 I very much forget it not meeting Douglas Adams and Graham Williams on that particular Doctor Who story. 05:48.000 --> 05:54.000 Their presence was known about but they didn't actually appear whenever I was there. 05:54.000 --> 06:03.000 They did actually go out to Paris for the shooting of the sequence, a short sequence in Paris which some lucky people did. 06:03.000 --> 06:07.000 And I didn't go to that so that's why I didn't actually meet them. 06:07.000 --> 06:17.000 Tom Baker is a fine man, a wonderful voice and very interesting eccentric presence. 06:17.000 --> 06:23.000 For my money he was the most interesting of the Doctor Whos. 06:23.000 --> 06:30.000 Bill Pertwee, I mean John Pertwee too in his way very different. 06:30.000 --> 06:42.000 But Tom Baker is sort of he's really truly wild and he has great eyes of his and a wonderful searing sense of humour and a hard worker. 06:42.000 --> 06:43.000 Wow what a hard worker. 06:43.000 --> 06:52.000 I first met him on a film called Nicholas and Alexandra which we filmed in Zagreb. 06:52.000 --> 06:58.000 My particular sequences and he was playing Rasputin of course and simply wonderful in that. 06:58.000 --> 07:06.000 And I think because of his Rasputin and his sort of wild craziness in that was one of the reasons he got the part of Doctor Who. 07:06.000 --> 07:09.000 That's only my theory so don't quote me. 07:09.000 --> 07:13.000 Well I hope you enjoyed this reconstruction, I certainly did. 07:13.000 --> 07:19.000 A final word of thanks I think should go to the Loose Cannon team comprising Rick, Derek and Dean. 07:19.000 --> 07:28.000 I think these chaps are doing a simply marvellous job diverting so much of their spare time preventing these missing episodes from becoming forgotten episodes. 07:28.000 --> 07:35.000 I think you'll agree that this reconstruction really complements the surviving episodes and is a welcome addition to any video collection. 07:35.000 --> 07:51.000 Thanks for watching, I've enjoyed it.
