LatestCountess Adel captured Cedric and Rowena and holds them in the castle to gain the names of the rebel Saxon lords.
"Dark Knight" is a TV series, based very loosely on Sir Walter Scott's novel "Ivanhoe". This joint New Zealand/England production attempted to capitalize on the same sword and sorcery market successfully mined by "Xena: Warrior Princess". Ancient evil is about to be unleashed on the land and the only hope is the sharp sword, the pure heart and the mysterious force that protects the 'Chosen One' Ivanhoe.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This rode the coattails of Hercules and Xena's syndicated success, but without Sam Raimi's camp genius.
Sir Walter Scott's novel gets about as much respect here as history books in a LARP convention.
