siege of the saxons (1963)

"...the secret only King Arthur and I have known."
Edmund of Cornwall (Ronald Howard) has his soldiers slay King Arthur, but his daughter Katherine (Janette Scott) escapes, aided by outlaw Robert Marshall (Ronald Lewis), and Merlin (John Laurie). Claiming she is dead Edmund makes ready to usurp the throne in league with Saxon invaders. Katherine and Robert need to find wise man Merlin to help them save Camelot and England.
Run of the mill Arthurian adventure, damsel in distress, helped to regain her thrown by a Robin Hood'esque outlaw.
