The setting and costumes are utterly ridiculous for the 5th century. Shields and other weaponry are so obviously out of time, they are laughable. Also, no England existed until hundreds of years later. Even in the early 50s they knew all of this, yet were giving the audience what popular culture required. Just accept this for what it is, try not to think about it too much, and enjoy it.
