Peacock's new series "Mrs. Davis" opens with a dramatic sequence of events, to say the least. As a group of knights called the Knights Templar are executed, a young girl steals away with an object that viewers soon discover is the Holy Grail. It's a series of events that may not appear connected to a show about a nun (Betty Gilpin) trying to defeat an all-powerful artificial intelligence, which is the essence of the plot of the sci-fi show, but it does all eventually tie together in mind-blowing ways.
The real-life Knights Templar were a Christian military order that were founded around 1119, per World History. Their original headquarters was set on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, and they existed for around two centuries. During that time, they fought formidably in the Crusades. Their order grew weaker as the Crusades came to a close, though, but everything ended with King Philip IV of France.
