About this title

Synopsis

It is the year 1305, and our hero Big George is still sleeping. Until knight-in-training Walter, on the run and desperately searching a hiding place, literally drops in on George. Once awoken, George, who is from a planet far away, has blue and green hair, a face that shines like the moon, and is the size of several large trees, really isn't quite sure what is happening. But he likes the look of Walter, and decides to stick with him. On the way they pick up Jo, a young poacher who is determined to gain her freedom, and together they journey into adventures that climax with the Midsomer Tournament, and Walter desperately throwing down a challenge to defeat all the knights at the jousting tournament to save his father's life.
