The Decline of the Crusaders Episode 12 "The Fall of Jerusalem"

In this episode, we hear how Saladin followed up his great victory at the Battle of Hattin in 1187. Having surrounded and captured most of the Crusader army, including King Guy, the way ahead now seemed relatively easy. But some Crusaders had escaped from Hattin and were now trying to rally resistance in the Crusader castles and towns. Saladin's main target was the City of Jerusalem, where Balian of Ibelin was leading a desperate attempt to save the city and its inhabitants from what seemed like certain death and destruction.
