Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 чер 2023
- The Arrows vs Armour collective, has been invited to give a presentation at the Chalke Valley History Festival. So Tod, Toby Capwell, Joe Gibbs, Will Sherman and Mike Chernett (Director/Editor) will be taking part in a question and answer session (unfortunately Augusto Boer Bront can't make it). We will be on stage at 10:30 on Saturday 1st July so come down and ask all those burning ultra geek questions.
Chalke Valley History Festival is an eclectic mix of anything history, but really looking toward the professional side of creative exploits, so it covers books, TV, film, academia and all manner of other interesting activities, as well as performance and reenactment. cvhf.org.uk

"Lonely weapon smiths in your area are waiting for you."
"For a good hammering call now for lonely single smiths in your area."
"Swipe left, parry right."
Now I can't stop picturing Tod having an involved one sided conversation about hilt construction with a tree.
Better than the conversation about trebuchet construction with a tree…
Maybe he can convince it to give him some of its wood.
I Was thinking about what is needed for spears.
I'd love to go. Just that dang ocean that gets in the way all the time. It's a real pain in the butt.
On a more serious note, hope you have an excellent time there. Really does sound like a ton of fun.
I’d love to meet the team but it’s a bit of a trek from Sweden. All the best and I love the Bollock dagger my son got me for my birthday from your store.
Congrats on the invite and wished I live there cause I'd be going to it!! You should film it Tod
I enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
With that lineup in attendance and a bunch of people asking questions he'd be mad if he didn't get at least a little something filmed.
i hope you make some videos there for those of us that cant attend the festival
I wish I could come keep you company, but the commute would be a touch excessive, I'm on the mid Atlantic in the states. Have a great time without me
Sounds like the Chalke Valley History Festival is a history festival!
:p
I admire how you are always respectful to people who may have different preferences or opinions than you. 🙂
Excellent. Have a great time!
Fantastic! Looking forward to it!
Sounds like a dream line-up! I wish I could make it, but I don't think my wife would be pleased if I abandon her to manage a cycling team! (Also, would probably destroy my back carrying all Toby's Arms & Armour books across the country by public transport to be signed!)
Man, this was literally *days* after I left the UK! I'm so sad I missed it. I did see your exhibit at the Royal Armouries though!
Didnt know you were going to be there Tod! See you at 10.30!
I’ll seek you out, I’m here all week.
You are way better than the History channel ever was.
Cheers From California ! 😊
Looks like fun. Bring some video back if it's convenient. Thanks Tod.
Oh my goodness, I never heard of such a fantastic event! Too short noticed to make it this time, but hopefully next year.
Love to be there but I live in British Columbia. Look forward to the video.
Seems like a good time, unfortunately I live in the states. But wish I could attend. Hope you have a blast bro.
I'll be one of the reenactors there this weekend! Look forward to seeing you! :)
Is your tee shirt a hint? :) It's too far from Scotland but I hope both you and your audience - and the rest of those present too - have a great time.
Sadly, a trip to England from the USA is a bit too pricey for me. It does sound very cool, though.
Gutted I can't make this - I'm only there for the Friday :(
Would love to come and have a look, but it's a bit far and to expensive coming from South Africa.
Anyway, enjoy and have fun all of you that can go.
I am still waiting for the leather shild test!
... next time please, please, somewhere in DaNorth. Yorkshire or there abouts.
Pretty please, sugar on top :D
Cheers!
I.
Shame I'm not in the UK anymore. Would've loved to pop by to say hi :)
Tod please do a crossbow vs armour
you should get eddie hall behind a longbow or javelins
Will there be any historic cheese at Chalke Valley?
i'd go in a heartbeat if it wasn't for the north sea and prohibitively expensive flight tickets on such a short notice.
If I could - I'd be there like a shot. So all i can do is be there in spirit.
I'd really like to see that presentation, but transcontinental airfares are a bit steep. Don't know if it's possible for you to film it, but if you did, I'd definitely watch it.
Good job 👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏👍😅
I’m on the wrong continent to go. Hope to see some video of the event.
Watch out for the Nac Mac Feegle
It'd be fascinating to see what a shield like the Enderby Bark Shield was actually useful for in the context of bronze age weaponry and environments... hint hint ;)
it's gotta be difficult for brits to plan on the weather being nice for outdoor events.
I would if I lived anywhere near there.
The chalk valley in Delaware or the one near Grimsby, Ontario? Wish I could go. I’m not anywhere near that part of Alaska.
Chalke Valley, Salisbury uk. South, kinda southwest britain. I mean still too far for me and im from the uk if thats any consolation lol
I would come, but my longship is at the shipmakers for some tar work. Plus, if my mates and I came sailing across the north sea and into Bournemouth with our viking gear on and our shields up, I don't know if the natives would have a sense of humor about it. 😅
It may be a historically accurate event, but people *will* wear elf ears when they go there.
Do questions bounce off oak trees? Is this a video that needs to be made to find out? ;-)
hi when you going to make part 2 leather shield
Hi is it possible I could speak to you about the instant legolas you build? Please it's a swsome design
Please make a baionet for a crossbow
I wish i could see those 2 films again for the first time.
EDIT: I'm an absolute moron.. i just realized i wished myself alzheimers....
I won't be there - it's a bit far from Australia with two days notice - but if you can't get an audience from nearly half a million followers then there is something wrong with us.
I have a question. Can you tell my boss I’m not going to be able to make it to work on Saturday? Cause I’d really rather be at your festival than at work. Sigh.
10:30 in the morning? That's not a real time, is it? Tod, you won't be so lonely if you do things at a "reasonable" time. Like 2 in the afternoon...
Maybe they are expecting Tod to get carried away and over-run his slot by a few hours. That oak-tree is really going to get entertained.
@@euansmith3699 That would never happen. Wood it?
Sponsored by the Daily Mail PMSL ... And A Stupid price scale on tickets ..... NO!
All the best Tod.
peace
I'll just hop on the Concorde ...
Best wishes and good luck with your presentation, sir, from far, far away.
My question from far, far away is "could you comment on this because they seem to have obtained significantly different results re: maille testing:" ua-cam.com/video/xw3lcgIAwLk/v-deo.html
I am SUPER interested in this topic vis a vis the exponential rise in knife violence in my country and the possibility of some kind of stab proof/resistant clothing. Could be cool to see historic technology adapted to a modern problem. Cheers!
@Tod - I am sorry, but I must disagree with you! I know that it is the humble thing to do to say that you are biased about a video or video series that you made and that they are really good. In at least this case, you can't shrug them off and say that maybe they weren't good and you are just saying that they were good because you are a little biased. It can't apply in this case because you already have feedback from all of us that they were great videos!
So, just suck it up. Ya'll did great!
The other bad news... I can't make it to the event. It is too far away from Texas, USA and I don't have the funds or planes that Elon Musk has to get there. 😢 But, I am sure that ya'll will do great and I hope you record and share the presentation here on your channel!
Cheers!
first!
Sponsored by the Daily Mail? No thanks.
Don't buy The Daily Mail - that's what I do. Though I don't normally feel the need to virtue-signal my choice. But if they're going to spend some money on something worth-while, there's nothing not to like about a sponsorship in the name of education. Two things to also consider - their sponsorship ends this year. And second, like or loath the Daily Mail, today, the sixth suspect in the racist murder of Stephen Lawrence has been identified. One of the biggest supporters of the Lawrence family, providers of investigative journalism regarding the suspects and calls for justice has long been The Daily Mail... Fortunately for the world outside self-created bubbles, there's this thing called nuance.
I noticed the word brilliant is highly over used in the UK. I suggest looking up other English words that can be used in its place. 👍👍 . I’d love to attend but I’m over here in the land of fresh words 🤣
Brilliant response
Nah, I think it's brilliant
@@Arachnoid_of_the_underverse come on you can look up words you have never heard before. In America kindergarten kids do it.
Looks like we got a couple of Nigels here 😂🤣
@@majorfallacy5926 well you are not too bright😉 but there is still time for you to shine.
