There is some evidence for a historical King Arthur, but he was not a king of all Britain, did not have knights in armour (armour as we usually think of it was long after Arthur's time), and certainly never had a Sir Lancelot in his menyie. (Lancelot seems originally to have been a different story from Arthur, the two got mixed in together sometime in the middle ages).

So the story of King Arthur is fictional, though it may have a very slight basis in fact. The same is true of the legend of Wyatt Earp when you look into it. Wyatt Earp was a real person, and really was involved in a gunfight at the OK Corrall - but most of the Wyatt Earp story apart from that is pure hokum.
