Cry God for Harry, England & St George; Henry V
In 1413 Henry V came to the throne; tall, young and ambitious, he would stop at nothing to see his country victorious. Join Jordan Evans as he looks at the world of King Henry V, the glory, the victory and the sheer cold ruthlessness which transformed a usurping King into a national legend, while the Tudors first emerge from the shadows.
Henry IV - The First Lancastrian King
In 1399 Henry of Lancaster seized the English throne from his cousin, King Richard II. Gaining the crown had been easy. Keeping it would not be. Join Jordan Evans as he looks into the world of a usurper King; a world of violent struggles, family quarrels, of murder and betrayal; and the beginning of the Inquisition in England.
Richard II & The Peasant's Revolt
In our most dramatic episode yet, join Jordan Evans as he looks at the moment the peasants of medieval England demanded equality. London would burn, the Tower would fall, and a teenage boy would forge his own destiny.

It's true that England was radically transformed under his rule, from a failed state in 1327, to the most powerful nation in Europe by 1376. But take a look beneath this glorious façade and you enter a world of harsh feudal structures, exploitative institutions and the most devastating pandemic the world has ever seen.
