Thanks to all who took part! (7600 votes cast in all)
This category included a large number of votes for animated films which seemed a bit out of place with the other period dramas. I've filtered them out of the Top Ten for those who are looking for ideas of which films to watch but not in the mood for a cartoon although it seems that most of us have grown up with these Disney classics based on 5 of them ranking in the ten most watched films!

#3 Sleeping Beauty
#5 Shrek
#7 Aladdin
#9 Mulan
Here then are the Top Ten (Most Watched) Medieval Films
