Omschrijving

Britains’s bloodiest Dynasty.s01e03.  (2014) Docudrama, IMDB 8.2.


Murder, betrayal, tyranny... this is the real Game of Thrones. Out of the chaos, darkness and violence of the Middle Ages, one family rose to seize control of England, ruthlessly ruling the country for over three hundred years. It’s the true story of overbearing fathers, weak sons, treacherous allies, adulterous wives, and best friends turned mortal enemies. With power-obsessed rulers driven by jealousy, hatred and revenge, the Plantagenet dynasty is more shocking, brutal and astonishing than anything you’ll find in fiction.

Thanks to Game of Thrones, The White Queen and the BBC revival of Shakespeare’s history plays, the Plantagenets are rapidly overtaking the Tudors as the hippest dynasty in British history. They certainly left their mark on the landscape of the country. From the lowlands of Scotland to the south-east corner of England, you can find castles, cathedrals, palaces and battlefields that will bring back to life the great moments of the high middle ages.
