Episode 2 (S01E02)

In the second episode, we delve into the Wars of the Roses from 1468 to 1471. Edward IV has successfully held onto the throne but has distanced himself from key allies, particularly Richard Neville, the Earl of Warwick. Margaret Beaufort has adapted to Edward's reign, managing to retain her estates and her life. Meanwhile, Warwick orchestrates a revolt against Edward, teaming up with the Duke of Clarence, Edward's brother, and his former foe, Queen Margaret. For a moment, they restore Henry VI to power, but Edward’s resolve is unyielding. The episode culminates in Edward’s return to England, where he triumphs over Warwick at the Battle of Barnet and defeats Queen Margaret at Tewkesbury, ensuring his place on the throne while Henry Tudor, Margaret's son, is forced into exile.
