Introducing… Season Ten of a Dynasty to Die For

About this episode

The episode introduces the final season of A Dynasty to Die For, focusing on the downfall of the Plantagenet dynasty in medieval England.

Three brothers. One crown. And no ounce of loyalty between them. In the final Plantagenet season of A Dynasty to Die For, Dan Jones traces the spectacular implosion of a dynasty that defined medieval England. You will meet King Edward IV, who marries for love and splits his court in half. His former champion, the Earl of Warwick, becomes a mortal enemy. Edward’s heirs mysteriously vanish in the Tower of London… just before their uncle becomes England’s last Plantagenet monarch — Richard III. As the Plantagenet dynasty crumbles,, across the sea, a boy nobody wanted is about to upend English history forever. His name is Henry Tudor. It took centuries to forge this dynasty. It will take one battle to bury them. Listen to the debut episode of Season 10 of This Is History — A Dynasty to Die For, premiering on Tuesday May 26.
