I was watching the Military Channel last night, and on Weaponology, it was the evolution of artillery. There was a British legion that was doing demos of their scorpion and onager and I think a larger catapult as well. Anyone know who it was?

Probably the ESG! I think they were at Lunt fort at the time, with the
XIIIIth! Correct me if I am wrong someone!
Geee, you get a Military channel back home?

It was the ESG - I'm a researcher for the TV company, and one of my colleagues booked that shoot. They shot on a farm somewhere in Gloucestershire. Hope you enjoyed the programme!
