Out of the pie stepped a tiny knight.
Jeffrey Hudson, born in Oakham in 1619, was very small. Wikipedia says that in 1626 he was served in a pie to Queen Henrietta Maria and popped out. Greatest Hits Radio's historian adds he wore a suit of armour. Discover Rutland marks Hudson's cottage on the heritage trail.
