In present-day France, archaeologist/professor Edward Johnston (Billy Connolly) and his students are excavating a site near the ruins of Castlegard. The village had been burned in 1357 when a massive battle occurred at nearby La Roque Castle, during The Hundred Years War. Even though the English were strong, the French were able to defeat them. Lady Claire (Anna Friel), the sister of Arnaut de Cervole, was hanged by the English at the castle in full view of the French. This enraged the French so much that they won the battle against the English.
