Great video, very interesting! I was happy to see the Kangaroo among the chosen. I missed the FT-17.

While I agree with Matthew and Miguel about the FT-17, I'm going to speak in support of Richard on the Carden Lloyd. Even without the clear influence it had on tank design and doctrine in Poland, Italy, Japan and other places beside, I think you have to see it also as the transition from 'tank as big, slow lumbery thing that goes with an infantry attack' to 'tank as a nippy, light, mobile attack type thing that drives manoeuvre warfare'. Its 'children' were the likes of the Vickers Light Tank, Panzer I, AMRs and, through them, the whole range of "Cruiser" type tanks of all nations.
