Blaze: More Templar nonsense, oddly enough with the chap who was talking about the canals, apparently he's written a tome about the Templars & does the talking head bit whilst the ex military guys do the crazy stuff down holes in the ground & suchlike.
I'm waiting with bated breath for them to end up on Oak Island where they find the Ark of the Covenant.
