Lloyd is Wing Chun practitioner; has studied warfare from the perspectives of archaeology (in which he has a degree), experimental archaeology, history, re-enactment, martial arts, and simulations; and is a man of many other interests.
He's got a lot of videos on YouTube. I like his "A point about" series on various aspects of martial history. His format is very rant-ish and I love it. Good dose of humor too. He's got a ton of good information. These are some of my favorite ones:
Another point about drawing swords (Here's a link to the first point about drawing swords, and here's yet another point):
A point about shields:
Some points about pommels:
If you're into weapons or martial history at all I'd recommend you subscribe to his YouTube channel. Also check out his page on ancient weaponry.

Very fun watch. He's got that british irreverence but definitely knows his stuff.
That guy is great. Informed, passionate, and entertaining. I wish there were more people like that on YouTube.
