Calais, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, France, Burgundy, Flanders--goodness, you would think there was some kind of medieval mass transit. Man, them English are a little crazy when it comes to getting someone on the throne and keeping them there. Right now there are at least 4 guys all trying to be king. Lancasters, Yorks, Tudors, wow.

I don't know how this ends up, I don't know English history that well. I don't want to hear any spoilers, but if you have seen this series (or read the books), chime in, I have some specific questions to ask.

Naturally, I may be the sole person on this forum watching or have watched this series, but who knows.
You are not alone! Ask away! PS: the story really ends in 2013 at Leicester when they found Richard III-a little hunchbacked & worse for wear...some times it's NOT good to be a (de-feeted?) king! 'A horse A horse' ...and always wear your helmet!
