I thought i would start a new Thread to see how many films & TV programmes Brit Movie Members can think of that have featured Castles, i know that Castles have featured prominently in Robin Hood films & TV Series and i can think of many more films featuring Castles including The Colditz Story (1955), Greyfriars Bobby The True Story Of A Dog (1961), The Private Life Of Sherlock Holmes (1970), Dracula and Frankenstein films and also lots of Swashbuckler films, i can also think of many TV programmes featuring Castles including The Adventures Of Sir Lancelot, Ivanhoe, William Tell, Richard The Lionheart and Doctor Who, i am sure Brit Movie Members can think of many more films & TV programmes featuring Castles.
