Time Team investigates Placentia, the Greenwich palace of king Henry VIII. They try to locate his royal armory and the tiltyard, where the court and nobility would have jousted and been entertained in mock castles. In the experimental part of the program, Tony looks at how Tudor armor would have been made, and gets a breastplate of the period hammered and fitted.
