No, those blokes are wearing ancient Greek styled "Corinthian" helmets worn by hoplites. At least it will make Heart of The Matter happy.

Thanks! Now I feel redeemed.
Yes, but they are naked under thier cloaks.

God no. It's the King of Spades. There's a big difference between a King and a knight. Just ask any Englishman or read any King Arthur story.
But a King could theoretically be a knight as well?


As the old saying goes - once a king always a king, but once a knight is enough.

I've got more bad news Paul - Argos stopped producing their catalogue a couple of years ago. LOL
I didn't know that, but what I do know is that Argos was founded by the same man who brought us Green Shield Stamps. I only discovered today that Argos was bought out by Sainsburys in 2016, which wasn't a good move as most Argos stores are due to close by 2024. Confused
Going a bit off-topic but our local Argos has shut down but our local Sainsburys is about to open a (very small) in-store Argos.
btw Paul - Prince Philip has died.

If Gladys Knight counts then chess knights count too. However, OP doesn't have an "other" option, so pick from what you're given you HEATHENS. Said with love.

If that cover of Hawkwind counts as having a knight, then I guess Relayer should count too.

I chose Return to Forever.
Here's another cover with a knight on it
