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.

No spoilers Neal but a link to the BBC site and explanations regarding characters etc.
