048 Henry

Henry is the Medieval knight. 

He has G1 and G3 versions.

He has a zood named Connery.  

Connery is a small European dragon. (Feng Long has a pet Chinese dragon.)  

Sean Connery played King Arthur in the 1995 film First Knight.  

The real-life King Henry VIII was such a fan of the Arthurian legend that he had the Winchester Round Table made depicting himself in the seat of King Arthur.  This was in 1522. 

So, the TDD name probably comes from King Henry VIII.  The "Knights of the Round Table" tale dates back to 1155.  None of the knights were named Henry.  They probably should have gone with Hector as the TDD name.  Sir Hector was a real knight.
