King Henry VII: The Battle of Bosworth - Episode 1 (2018x1)

Air date: Jan 05, 2018

In 1485, near the town of Bosworth Market in Leicestershire, three armies came together around the landmark of Ambion Hill, to do battle and decide who would be the next to rule England as king. It was the culmination of 30 years of war, started in 1455 at the First Battle of Saint Albans, the first combat of the Wars of the Roses. Many kings would rise and fall, fighting for both the House of Lancaster and the House of York, but by 1485 there was only one Lancastrian claimant left, and his name was Henry Tudor, Earl of Richmond. Crossing the channel from exile in Brittany and later France, with a crew of French and Scottish knights, he landed in Wales and marched northwards, being met by his friend and countryman Rhys ap Thomas and many Welsh supporters on his march to Shrewsbury. In the meantime the royal army had assembled: Richard's lords the Earl of Northumberland and the Earl of Norfolk, as well as the less trustworthy Lords Stanley, William and Thomas. The Battle of Bosworth Field would see betrayal, the fall of the House of Plantagenet and the birth of a new dynasty.
