Or another Agincourt.

I fear francophobia has existed in Britain since around Agincourt in [checks notes] 1415 and is unlikely to fade away gracefully any time soon.

I watched "The King" last night and the climactic moment was when Henry V killed the Dauphin of France at the Battle of Agincourt. The Dauphin wasn't even at the battle in real life, but it was okay because the actor playing the Dauphin was white.

Up to 1386AD in #fplhistory. Skipped over the peasants revolt in time to see the birth of Henry V. Agincourt-tastic!

NEW COVER! King Henry V had much to prove—to himself as well as the rest of Europe. By the time the English reached Agincourt, they were starving, exhausted, and easy pickings. Or so the French thought. Read THE AGINCOURT KING on #KU buff.ly/43Zbjhz

...tbf the guy was english and went on to mention agincourt (in a conversation about the roman empire) so maybe he just hated the French 🤷‍♂️

And what was that all for? Was it the weather or the battle of Agincourt?

Shakespeare’s Henry V in a nutshell:

Henry goes to Agincourt and delivers the most epic battle speech ever, then goes to Paris and delivers the worst pick-up line ever.

Stick to the battlefield, Hal.

I remind sleepless romance readers that Calm has a Regency story as one its "sleep stories" featuring a duke trying to hide in a library and finding his match. (I try to ignore the Henry IV/Agincourt reference) #CalmSleepStories

Shooting arrows at Alik'r warriors like it's Agincourt.

A little archery never hurt anyone!

Well, except for King Harold. And a lot of French guys at Agincourt. And Custer.

Archery hurts lots of people!

Then call we this the field of Agincourt,
Fought on the day of Crispin Crispianus.

Correlation, etc. whilst the English were bending their skeletons trying to get old technology going, people on the continent were already forming the basis for the next 300 years of warfare.

Agincourt was in 1415, a few years before the Czechs went fully gun crazy.

Welsh bowmen had such a fearsome reputation long before Agincourt — and also at the hobelars, fast-moving mounted spearmen who fought alongside them in a very effective, very un-knightly style of warfare. from The History Squad
