The gentleman narrating this brilliant documentary knows exactly how to keep the listeners interest. Beautifully spoken and articulated
it is a pleasure to hear and to enjoy. He holds every point perfectly - a real joy from a superb storyteller

This is historical written gold. The text is rich, the analysis on point, the voice is impeccable. Extreme quality work.

Thanks for this excellent and balanced documentary. Those lads and ladies in the century between Richard II and Henry VII make Game of Thrones look like Little House on the Prairie.

[WelshToni]

Excellent. Thank you. So well written, narrated and researched. Fascinating

As an American I find this stuff so fascinating and have watched WAY more hours worth of documentaries on British history than American.

I love how everything is so well documented that almost none of it is based on conjecture

History is often written by the victors. Following that logic, it would make sense that Richard was written about in a dark light. As stated in the video, most monarchs during this time were neither good nor bad, but sort of just did what they could to hold onto their power and survive.

I think Edward's hair color is called Auburn. I have the same hair. It's kind of a tinted dark brown but appears red in certain light and the red becomes more apparent when under more sunlight - so often in winter my hair will be dark brown then in Summer slightly red.

Poor Henry, in a way I don’t really think he knew what was what. Thank you. Let’s listen to the next now. With pleasure I must add 🙏🙏🙏👵🇦🇺

I’ve accidentally watched this in my sleep like 4 times oops

I think Richard, given half the chance, would have made a great king. He had noble plans to make England a peaceful country. He had plans to feed his people fairly. Share wealth evenly to ensure the economy grew.
But he wasn’t given the chance to put forth his ideas into action.

This time in history is always so fascinating. I always learn something new with any documentary made about it. Thanks for this one!

[henkzwaneveld]

Henry 6 was just kind harted, a good man, not power minded at all. I think he was loved very much by the common people.

[samizdatbroadcasts]

Interesting story. Now let's add dragons and ice zombies.

[ceilingtalk]

I like how I can hear the narrator smiling. He truly enjoys the history.

It is videos like this one that keep me coming back to YouTube.

If only the Yorks could have refrained from always fighting within their own houses in times of peace there may have never been a Tudor on the throne it’s why the Lancastrian’s ruled for so long the Yorks were their own worst enemies

I really like these documentaries! I could do without so many close-up eye-ball shots though.
