The Wars of the Roses is coming to television! Here's the headline from the Daily Mail (UK):
A very dangerous liaison: An epic new Wars Of The Roses drama tells how Edward IV's marriage to a Lancastrian Queen tore the country apart
As the Daily Mail describes it, "England has been at war for nine years [ as the series opens] over who is the rightful king. It’s a war between two families – The House of York and The House of Lancaster – but the series focuses primarily on four powerful women caught up in the conflict... "
And, of course, Richard III!
