On the fourth leg of Ross’s epic journey, he stops off at Kryal Castle, a self-styled ‘medieval’ tourist attraction in the town of Ballarat, Victoria. This somewhat dated mock castle boasts re-enactments, a ‘Sleeping Beauty’ tower and a maze.
Ross hangs out with the knights, watches the flogging of wenches and even gets to meet ‘King’ Ralph. He also has a chance to indulge his role-play fantasies as he tries his hand at falconry.
Leaving medieval times firmly in the past, Ross travels on through the cities of Geelong and Horsham. His final stop is Port Pirie, where the town mayor comes to the show and offers him the keys to the city.
