Revealing the little-known back-story of the events explored in the popular Showtime series "The Tudors", Wars of the Roses: A Bloody Crown is the most extensive documentary series ever produced focusing on this bloody period of British history.

The story of the Wars of the Roses has everything to make the heart of a Hollywood scriptwriter beat a little faster. The main characters are hell bent on winning power and influence; they're ruthless and show no mercy as they pursue their aims. There's a generous helping of madness, treachery and deceit. There's even a touching love story in the background. And, don't forget about the thunderous pitched battles that eventually decided the destiny of the crown of England. With full-scale reconstructions and re-creations and new footage from the battlefields, towns and cities involved, along with animated maps and weapons demonstrations, Wars of the Roses is brought to rich life like never before.
