in the film, king arthur (graham chapman), accompanied by his trusty squire patsy (terry gilliam), is travelling through a forest when he enters a clearing and observes a fight taking place between a black knight (john cleese) and a green one (also played by gilliam) by a bridge over a small stream. as he watches, the black knight defeats the green one by throwing his sword straight through the eye slit of the green knight's great helm (during arthur's battle with the black knight, the green knight's body can be seen in a ditch beside the area).

the black knight is a fictional character who appears in a scene of the feature film "monty python and the holy grail". as his name suggests, he is a knight dressed in black and behaves similarly to the standard character, a black knight. he guards a "bridge" (in reality a short plank of wood) over a small stream — which could have been easily stepped over by king arthur but, for unknown reasons, he does not. although supremely skilled in swordplay, the black knight suffers from unchecked overconfidence and a staunch refusal ever to give up.
