It all needs a long cool look.. I found it most amusing when it turned out that the name of one of the first recorded Anglo-Saxon invaders was actually "Celtic" or British... Namely Cerdic. Look at the Arthurian stories again and you find that he wasn't fighting AS invaders, but other British warlords. That must have been the post Roman scene - exactly what it was before they came - constant tribal warfare, hence all those Iron Age hillforts built to defend themselves from each other and not the Romans.
Hmm - getting a bit OT now so I'd better shut up.
