Was King Arthur a real historical figure? Where was the true Avalon? And could one of Britain’s greatest legends be hiding a very different story from the one we’ve all been told?
In this fascinating episode, I’m joined once again by historian, author and researcher Mark Olly as we delve deep into the extraordinary legends surrounding King Arthur, Merlin, Guinevere, Sir Lancelot, Joseph of Arimathea and the Holy Grail.
Mark takes us beyond the familiar medieval tales and explores what he believes may lie behind the mythology.
We discuss:
⚔️ The REAL King Arthur – who was the man behind the legend?
🪨 The Sword in the Stone – what could this famous story actually mean?
🌊 The Lady of the Lake – is there a historical explanation behind one of the most mysterious Arthurian legends?
🏝️ The true location of Avalon – and why it may not be where most people think.
👑 Guinevere’s horrible demise – what became of Arthur’s legendary queen?
🌹 Sir Lancelot was a Lancastrian?! – Mark reveals the surprising northern connections behind one of Arthur’s greatest knights.
🧙♂️ There was more than one Merlin – could “Merlin” have been a title rather than one mysterious wizard?
⛵ Joseph of Arimathea in Britain – did the biblical figure sail to Britain and establish himself on the Wirral, Merseyside?
🏆 The TRUE Holy Grail – forget what Hollywood has told us. What was the Grail really supposed to be?
⚰️ Arthur’s real burial place – could we actually know where the legendary king was laid to rest?
From ancient Britain and early Christianity to forgotten traditions, historical clues and legends that have changed dramatically over the centuries, this is a journey into the possible reality behind King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table.
Was Camelot merely a story? Was Arthur transformed from a genuine historical figure into a mythical king? And could the truth be even stranger than the legend?
Join Mark Olly and Paranormal Pendle as we go in search of the REAL King Arthur.
