TV adaptation of the Ken Follett novel following the fortunes of an English town in the 1300s. As King Edward III (Blake Ritson) prepares to lead England into a ruinous war with France that will last for a century, the residents of Kingsbridge have a different vision of the future. Led by the inspirational Caris (Charlotte Riley) and her lover Merthin (Tom Weston-Jones), they attempt to resist the power of the Catholic Church and the English Crown and forge their own destiny. However, with war and the even more deadly spectre of the Black Death looming, their powers of endurance will be tested to the full. The episodes are: ‘Knight’, ‘King’, ‘Prior’, ‘Check’, ‘Pawns’, ‘Rook’, ‘Queen’ and ‘Checkmate’.

England is on the brink of a devastating war with France that will last over a hundred years, and The Bubonic Plague, which will wipe out a third of Europe’s population before it is done, is spreading.
