The gentleman narrating this brilliant documentary knows exactly how to keep the listeners interest. Beautifully spoken and articulated
it is a pleasure to hear and to enjoy. He holds every point perfectly - a real joy from a superb storyteller
Keep the listeners interested ! I stopped watching after the fourth month. Far too much detail, just tel the story man.
@@fjbiden6327no it’s not. He’s on other channels too
@@den264yet here you are 😂
Hi name is David Starkey
@@MelissaCrew-uz3omThat's never Starkey.
This is historical written gold. The text is rich,the analysis on point, the voice is impeccable. Extreme quality work.
its a computer voice
@@deethebee80 I don't think so
@@deethebee80no, this is narrated by David Starkey. He is a prominent historian and has a dedicated channel where he speaks more on these topics.
@@deethebee80no, it isnt
@@heartwork86 im sure its splended
Thanks for this excellent and balanced documentary. Those lads and ladies in the century between Richard II and Henry VII make Game of Thrones look like Little House on the Prairie.
Well. There’s a reason Game of Thrones was based on the War of the Roses
I’ve accidentally watched this in my sleep like 4 times oops
Excellent. Thank you. So well written, narrated and researched. Fascinating
Interesting story. Now let's add dragons and ice zombies.
I like how I can hear the narrator smiling. He truly enjoys the history.
History is often written by the victors. Following that logic, it would make sense that Richard was written about in a dark light. As stated in the video, most monarchs during this time were neither good nor bad, but sort of just did what they could to hold onto their power and survive.
Poor Henry, in a way I don’t really think he knew what was what. Thank you. Let’s listen to the next now. With pleasure I must add 🙏🙏🙏👵🇦🇺
This time in history is always so fascinating. I always learn something new with any documentary made about it. Thanks for this one!

You're welcome 🤗.
This documentary's exceptional narration captivates and educates, blending storytelling mastery with historical insight. A truly remarkable work!
I think Edward's hair color is called Auburn. I have the same hair. It's kind of a tinted dark brown but appears red in certain light and the red becomes more apparent when under more sunlight - so often in winter my hair will be dark brown then in Summer slightly red.
Just like Catelyn, Robb, Sansa, Bran and Rickon.
@@marcfrancisteodoro7720 glad I'm not the only who immediately remembered that :-)
Edward was 700 years ago.
My passport says auburn and I am a proper redhead but dark not carrot.
🤣🤣 it kinda made me laugh a little bit at this whole discussion
Thank God for an English narrator
Absolutely amazing and thank you for this. You and your team are truly appreciated
great documentary, i love richard iii hes my favourite king and the Plantagenet Dynasty is my favourite so thanx and keep up the good work.
Once again I say impeccable content my friend. Thank you for the free history you have provided. One of the best if not the best history channe.l
Never trust the Tudors and their head hunting ways. Cruel, ths lot of them. From a Plantagist decendant.
Fascinating history. I never knew the English fought like this in the 14 hundreds. Glad I stumbled on this channel.
Not surprising with the history of the UK goes back over 4 thousand years so a few fights along the way are going happen
Look up Erik bloodaxe who was king of York....loads of battles with the Saxon kings "down south" aswe say in Yorkshire.
"In search of Eri k Bloodaxe" is a n old but great dovumentary on CZcams.
That "Most Kings were lucky to have a Heir and a Spare" really got me! 😂
Watched all 4 "People Profiles" documentaries on "The Plantagenets", & found them a very well-presented, in-depth series.
I feel sorry for anyone who wasted six months of their lives listening to this pompous drivel. Far too much detail, get on with it man.
@@den264 Oh, I'm sorry you feel you've wasted 6 mos. of your time. I only "wasted" approx. 6 hrs., & actually learned something.
Watching after I found a Plantagenet in my family tree 😀
This is an epic. You have done a great job! James Fiennes and William Crowmer are 15 and 14 gt Gfathers of ours. So James` daughter Elizabeth lost both her Father and husband within minutes of eachother which was somewhat unfortunate, but by way of consolation she got to marry Alex Iden who is sometimes credited with running down Cade. So at least she got something out of it...
Exceptional narration and storytelling-this documentary is a true gem!
Henry 6 was just kind harted, a good man, not power minded at all. I think he was loved very much by the common people.
Henry VI was a keen supporter of education. He would have made a better monk than king. He was intelligent but not wise.
Fab find Allan. Waltham Abbey church has a relatively recent 'doom' painting upon a side chapel wall that's rather impressive, if grim. Great vid sir 😉 ✌🏻✌🏼✌🏽 🇬🇧
I love falling asleep to this
Ayy como estaba esperando este video!! Gracias!
Love these videos! Grateful for the rich content. Could you please do one on the Stuarts as well?
I really like these documentaries! I could do without so many close-up eye-ball shots though.
Thanks mate for this.
Brilliant & at last clear professional un-intrusive narrating
I think Richard, given half the chance, would have made a great king. He had noble plans to make England a peaceful country. He had plans to feed his people fairly. Share wealth evenly to ensure the economy grew.
But he wasn’t given the chance to put forth his ideas into action.
He was lord of the North for some years and was well loved in Yorkshire.
I learned something new doing research into my family roots. Turns out my direct ancestors were Plantagenet. Just finding more information.
You do the Plantagenet were wiped out when the prince of Wales Margert Anjou son Edward was killed 😂 if you are gonna lie at least do research
@@partlycloudy3519 you need to do your research. An illegitimate line of the Plantagenet dynasty lives on today!!!
@@partlycloudy3519 you do know that an illegitimate line of the Plantagenet’s lives on today!!
@@partlycloudy3519what💀 even the current royal family is descended from the plantagenets- not all plantagenets became monarchs, some kept living
and reproducing
I as well I'm relative...to them.....its really something see tv shows r on my family.......wow.....stay true cousin.
If only the Yorks could have refrained from always fighting within their own houses in times of peace there may have never been a Tudor on the throne it’s why the Lancastrian’s ruled for so long the Yorks were their own worst enemies
1:16:46 Here begins the critically important section which explains what the War of the Roses was all about.
Henry was an awfully inept king.
I am binging everything in the peoples profile so thank you.
Edward the 4th what a great king, his big mistake and Richard the 3rds was that he didn't have Margaret Beaufort executed, if he or Richard had then Henry 7th would not have become king
Richards body was actually found buried under the church car park in leicester
Really? Now there is an obscure bit of information! What a history slueth!
@@Beemer917 hardly obscure as it was on the news all over the world
He was kind and i consider a victim of circumstance.
Henry VI didn't start the war of the roses and he seems like the victim but it was his compassion and love for his mother and her 2 other sons that decided the fate of the war of the roses.
Speaket: this not a drama - but readings in histoory !
Brilliant
It sounds like Henry was born into a job he did not want, the intrigue and plotting wore him out.
Could you do a video on Clement Attlee?
John Duke of Beford was the first husband of Jacquetta Woodville, the mother of Elizabeth Woodville. Edward IV's wife and queen. Henry simply did not have the makings of a king.
Really interesting, thank you!
Edward won the throne, lost it, and got it back, but so did Aethelred II (the Unready).
My husband and I are eighth cousins via British Royal family.. King Henry, the fourth is our 12th. Great, great plus grandfather, hes the father of Henry the eighth.
Henry 8th's father was Henry 7th not 4th
I think you have your Henrys mixed up.
Regarding Richard III, he wasn’t a Plantagenet through his father.
I was a test subject.
I’m a 22nd great grandson of Hamelin DeWarenne. Richard’s paternal haplogroup is G-P287 (jewish).
King George is R-M269 like mine.
King Edward IV is my favourite.
the best english king by far
That is some proper diction man, say 'parliament'👍👍👍👍
I rewinded twice just to hear it!
Although taking Place over months and years with, slow Communication, the Marching of Armies in response, and Political, Religious and National competing Identies and affiliation changing by the day and even hours, this is too much for most people to absorbed!!!! Thank you though, for such a 'compressed' historical account!!! Food tasters Job for the Kings a hazardous occupation.......
"Compressed" I would hate to see the long version.
So many of my ancestors on my mother’s side of the family
Believe what you want.
Henry VI would, had he been anointed king in modern times, been likened to George VI. He treated his wife better than most men of any time and was treated badly for seeking her council which today would be considered natural.
Like Abraham Lincoln he pardoned freely any man sentenced to death as like Lincoln, bloodshed and the duty of signing death warrants was repugnant to him personally.
Like Edward The Confessor he was pious and tried hard to live in Christ's example...a hard thing for any monarch to do.
He should be called Good King Henry rather than Henry The Mad. If kindness and gentleness be Mad than we xould do with many more Mad rulers.
Henry is in every way the opposite of his ancestor John The Bad. So why not call him Henry The Good?
Weakness and being a puppet. He caused his own civil war.
So it never bothered Henry V that his father was a usurper and his throne built on the bones of his uncle?
Strange family.
What is the name of the Richard soundtrack at the end. I've heard it before. It gives me a headache.
The government had placed many restrictions on Catherine of Valois remarriage. It is, therefore, possible that Catherine of Valois never legally married Owen Tudor. There were even rumors that Edmund Tudor was fathered by Edmund Somerset, not Owen Tudor.
I liked Edward, IV. RICHARD, III made me sick. Thinking of how he may of had the future Prince of Wales, and his brother were murdered in the tower.
So, was the narration at the end written by the Richard III Society? I guess Richard should be made a Saint.
1:28:39 not spreading nutella on the letter 😭
Henry the 6th may have been kind but in those days you needed a strong king and he was not that
Could you do a video on Friedrich Nietzsche?
Hmm.. what do I think of Edward the fourth, good question
When ever I see the picture identifying what this video is about my first thought is alwayswhat does Mark Zuckerberg have to do with this story.
Poisoned princes and mad heirs.
any other descendants of the Plantagenets carry a CHEK2 c. 349 mutation?
My husband and I are trying to figure out where ours came from and Ancestrydna cant tell us they go back 12 generations and we haven't hit it yet
Wow!! So many people in the comments seem to be descended from aristocracy/royalty.... I, myself am descended from Total Nobodies! 👑😉
To this day, don’t ask a descendent of the Plantagenets for help. Unless you want them to take over.
Catherine of Vlalois had a surprisingly small role in her son's upbringing.
It was entirely normal for Royalty in those days. Royal children were invariably brought up by noblewomen until they were handed over to a male nobleman to be educated in the case of a male heir and to prepare him for his future role.

So although no evidence exists on the murder of Richard's nephews, no one wonders why on earth he did not search for them or inquired about their disappearance since he had undertaken their care and safety? But good that he had a royal burial while most likely his nephews are still locked in that container.
In the first place it’s never been proven he murdered them. And second what did you want us to do with his remains?
The princes may have been alive during Richard III's lifetime. My bet is that they were living at Middleham with their cousins. It is also possible that the princes were sent overseas, possibly to Margaret of York, the Duchess of Burgundy.
If they were killed at all, it was likely perpetrated by the Duke of Buckingham for his own regal ambitions. It's more likely that Richard secreted them to his sister in Burgundy. That urn likely contains children from 2,000 years ago, based on the fact that the bones were found 10 feet deep. No grave was dug to that depth, especially under a stone staircase. The grave was more likely already present before William the Conqueror built the White Tower.
Because he ordered them to be killed. I mean, it is obvious.
MAKE WAY FOR THE KING
We don't forget 🇨🇵
ya cannot argue ah benevolence on the part of
Richard the 3rd. Edward the 4th was likely
poisoned by a very good practitioner. his heir(s)
were underage,quickly killed&a military
dictatorship was begun,miraculously,by the
person whom,up to that time,had most of the
military under his control. replace English names
with Roman names&everyone would only come
to one,clear conclusion.
A little bit of history of the way they got all the letters through lots of stamps of wax are seen in all these stories from Country to country. . 🤔🤔
Henry Vl
Looks like these favours of lands and titles were handed out like sweeties in the 1400s. My family tree in that period seems ridiculously overflowing with them. Pity none of them filtered down this way!
English, after 100+ years fighting the French
When peace was agreed
They returned to England and fought each other .
Wiping out the ones with true claims to the throne
Ending with the weak tudor king Henry 7th ruling .
A weak paranoid king who spent most of his time hiding in his rooms .
His son arthur died & Henry 8th became king After hurting his leg he became a tyrannical wife and freind killer.
His son was a rabid protestant and destroyed more churches than all the viking raids put together.
His sister Mary ( known as bloody Mary, burnt so many protestants she needed to resort from single to mass burnings..
Elizabeth 1st died childless meaning England had James Stewart 1st of England a Scottish king , who's Stewart family caused all sorts of trouble.
Ending with his sister Mary and her Dutch husband William becoming king and queen under restrictions of parliament.
The princes in the tower could just as easily have died of any of the illnesses rampant in their time. Similarly, they could have been killed by someone who thought they were furthering Richard's cause, but without his knowledge or consent. Regardless of how they died, and even if Richard was in no wise to blame, he must have known that he would have been blamed for their deaths in any case. It would have been ironic if they had died of some fever or other "natural cause." Then again, it would make sense in terms of the reign of Henry VI and the power struggles surrounding the infant king, that having another underage king would have prolonged the instabilities and infighting that had been going on since Henry VI's infancy. For an adult Richard to have taken the throne would have brought stability. If he could have neutralized Stanley, he might have been able to pull it off.
Murdering so high born princess without of the knowledge of the king? Let’s be serious 😮
But I grant you that one- the overall situation was bad and War of The Roses lasted already for so long that everyone was tired of waring. Someone had to do something. Pity for Edward IV’th sons
That's if they died in the tower at all, and they weren't just a threat to Richard, they were a threat to Henry.
Yes, more so to Henry and his vile mother.
hi i am actually related to sir james tyrill tish
The REAL Game of Thrones.
The House of Wessex was England's Greatest Dynasty. Lasting for 500 years, they united a nation and laid its legal foundations. The Plantagenets did neither.
2:34:34 he makes a mistake. It's Edward the 4th not the 6th.
Given the fact incestuous marriage kept the bloodline pure...history shows the effects of that

It's unfortunate that Edward III, had so many wars and sons! He had been a great King! Henry V was just a warrior, not a King or father! Piety! Many healthy uncles, leading army's!Take the child to France, crown him overseas!? 😰 (Mums gone!) Puppet King! 😵 Comes the Pope! 😒 Owen TUDOR! 😠 Make people happy! 🤨😳 (So many capable relations! 😩) Eton and Kings College! 😇😏 Enter Queen Margaret! 🧐🤭

I think Henry the 6th was a simple man born into the role of a king
Feel asleep listening this video, had a trippy dream with Hugh Laurie trying to make me sign a paper to incriminate a corrupt northern lord of murder to remove him from his position, and making Laurie's brother King to finally unite the West and Northern regions...
What ?
What about the people that really sorted stuff out. The engineers and inventors of the time. The people that made it all possible. Why do historians just concentrate of a few people at the top? Is it to maintain the myth of royalty and so we end up with Charles a man totally unworthy of the role of king, a protector of the defrocked sex offender Bishop Ball?

Hate how he pronounces 'parliament'....
did no one hear of a barber back then ?
They were too busy plucking the hairlines of all the ladies because high foreheads were all the rage, to cut the men's hair lol I think the women removed all their eyebrows too 😆
Remember the hairstyles of the 80’s? That says it all. Sometimes the barbers go crazy 👵👵🇦🇺🇦🇺

Those were some crazy days. 😅
