Any Limeys recall a cheapo series about 'Arthur'?

Many years ago ('70s?) there was series concerning the Round Table and Modred; Lancelot; Gwen; Saxons, etc. As I can recall, I don't even think it was in color.
Even with the cheapness, I tried to see each chapter, as they seemed to be trying to be adult. Not like that CAMELOT slop from a couple of years back with that frat boy Arthur.
I believe the show I'm asking about was from England. Might have been early '80s.

Somebody has uploaded (from poor quality VHS) 'The Legend of King Arthur' onto youtube, episode one here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGGb2Nw-BkE other episodes linked to on the right of that page.

And for furienna, 'limey' originated as US naval slang for the British because sailors in the Royal Navy were issued a daily ration of lime juice to prevent scurvy.
