His remains recovered, identified and finally provided an honorary king’s funeral televised and streamed to millions across the world is Richard’s III vindication. Now I can only hope that modern science will recover the remains of King Harold or his sons from the battle of Hastings. It will be great marvel similar to the discovery of the Terra-cotta warriors.

Henry had a bodyguard. A better one than Richard's, apparently. He also wore a conspicuous suit of armor. Can't hide among the pikemen with that. Henry stood within yards of Richard. Richard charged because after a protracted clash (lots of cannonballs found), his army was stymied by the presence of the Stanley's pinning down Northumberland, keeping him essentially useless to Richard. And Norfolk was dead. He was trying to pull out a victory from looming loss. Almost did. Both Richard and Henry acted bravely. If Henry hadn't, his position would have crumbled. He'd come too far to run.

If it wasn't for the White Boar banner, I'd have thought this was a scene from Game of Thrones. It shows a melee in a forest in winter between a group of knights. Presumably the producers didn't think to read any accounts of the Battle of Bosworth. The actual battle was fought in August 1485 and even given the famously bad British summer I'd have trouble believing it was snowing amidst bare branches. It was also fought over an open marshy plain, the plain of Redemore, a few km south of Ambion Hill. Anyone who pays a visit to the area will see there a few forests. I'm glad I've seen it though, as it means I won't bother watching the TV series it was lifted from.

Apart from the dragons and the creatures with ice blue eyes (stalkers? walkers? I forget) it's very credible. The Wall is surely based on Hadrian's wall, built to keep the Picts / wildlings out. Lately, reading a history of the Crusades I came across a real-life Melisandre - Queen Melisande, one of the very few women who managed to rule (the Kingdom of Jerusalem) in the 12th century - a formidable personality, though without the mysterious / mystical quality to RR Martin's character.

So there were probably constraints on production and they most likely could not have waited to film in a more weather accurate setting (why they filmed in a forest instead of a field I would never know though). Also the series itself is not based on actual accounts of history. They were based on the series of story books by Phillipa Gregory that were never intended to be historically accurate. In any case true historical accuracy in film and tv have always been a pipe dream. But I do understand people's frustrations at the inaccuracy.

I suppose film producers at the end of the day generally leave the 'historically accuracy' to the documentary makers and focus instead on telling a good tale, which is fine. Unfortunately in this day and age the 'good tale' then becomes the popular perception of history because few people seem to have the inclination to read up on it for the facts. In a sense, it's as if people used Grimm's Fairy Tales to form a historical picture of early 19th century Germany.

@Hans Gunsche "I've always thought that the footmen wearing plate were well payed mercenaries or men at arms" Men-at-arms wore full plate armour. Men-at-arms means anyone who can afford full plate or almost full plate armour, at least one horse, etc. Basically men-at-arms was a heavy cavalrymen. Every noble (included knights), wealthy middle class, etc. men were a men-at-arms. Elit guard units, wealthy mercenaries, etc. almost looks like a men-at-arms, because they had much money. "No way some peasant leavy could afford something like that" I said some good, and wealthy levy or militia units. Not every. The levy and militia troops were very mixed quality: some of the prity good, some of them not very. Depend on many factors. Levy doesn't mean peasant's with pitchforks... Myth... They were not peasant revolters, or somethong like that. And important thing is: this is the late 15th century, end of the Middle Ages, not the 13th century. By the mid-late 15th century professional troops and armies more common (with relatively many mercenaries). Examples: French standing merceanary army from the mid 15th century (King Charles VII created it in 1439), Burgundian mercenary army, Black Army of King Matthias I of Hungary (from the 1460's), German Landsknechts from the late 15th century (created by Maximilian of Habsburg), Swiss Reislaufer's, etc...

The battle was fought on open ground and Richard was mounted, he led the final charge himself in attempt to finish the battle when he saw that Henry Tudor and his personal guard had become separated from their main force. He came close to achieving it, according to contemporary accounts, having killed WILLIAM Brandon and unhorsed the giant John Cheyne with the broken end of his Lance, getting within a swords length of Henry before being overcome by the forces of his traitor William Stanley. So my assessment of this piece, in the language favoured by scribes of the day, is “ablatisque testiculis est onus Domini.” Which is about as close to a load of bollocks as contemporary phraseology will allow.

According to the contemporary by Henry Tudor's own historian, Polydore Virgil, supported by the accounts of French mercenaries among whom Henry concealed himself for safety, Richard led the final charge around the melee in an attempt to reach Henry and end the battle by killing him; in doing so, he killed Henry's standard bearer William Brandon before unhorsing the giant John Cheyne with the broken end of his lance. He mist have got almost within striking distance of Henry before he and his household guard were overrun. An amazing feat for a man of relatively slight build who suffered from Scoliosis, which gives some idea of the adrenalin fuelled desperation of the attack; Richard clearly knew that it was a do or die tactic.

The arms and armor are from the 13th/14th century, not the late 15th century. Most noblemen and men-at-arms would have been wearing full plate or brigandine armor and fighting dismounted with pole arms and impact weapons, swords being more secondary weapons at this point. Guns would have also featured prominently on late 15th century battlefields- cannon played a significant role at the Battle of Bosworth. This appears to be a skirmish in the early 14th century.

He never showed Perkin to Elizabeth of York and before Perkin was executed, his face was smashed so nobody could see he was the spitted image of Edward IV as he claimed to be Richard Shrewsbury Duke of York one of the Princes.

Wjhatever else he was (and his reputation was probably trashed by the victors, helped by Shakespeare who sucked up to the Tudors for their patronage) he was a brave and seasoned warrior. Remarkable for a man of slight build who suffered from Scoliosis (curvature of the spine) he had fought in previous battles alongside his brother. He led his troops from the front in the final charge when he saw a chance to reach Henry who became exposed with a few followers across the field and he probably got within a few yards of him, killing his standard bearer (Sir William Brandon) with his lance. before knocking Henry's bodygguard John Cheyney off his horse with the broken end. Sir John Cheyney (as he later became) was a giant of a man, when his grave was opened centuries later they found a thighbone which puts his height at around 6'7" which made him an obvious choice for Henry's personal guard. Richard appears to have been seconds away from achieving his goal before his group were overtaken by the enemy and cut down. He was a skilled and seasoned warrior, clearly adept with the lance and no doubt schooled in the art of battle from an early age. Whatever else we can draw from his legacy, he is a study in the strength of human willpower.

brilliantly done. Great atmosphere, Stunning tension, Grade-A acting, seriously badass voices and tones, no over-acting or obnoxious screaming and the battle was well done. Very spectacular. Just a few criticisms, and this is just the medieval enthusiast in me talking so please take it with a grain of salt, but I really couldn't see much in terms of armor. Yes, there are gambesons, chainmails and plate armor, all well and good, but I hardly see anyone fully armored up. I just like seeing knights fully geared up, not saying it's a mandatory checklist, just speaking from personal taste. Also, I didn't really see the armor doing much by means of protection. Everyone seemed to be dying from one blow from the sword. Now maybe there was some resistance from the armor and maybe there were vulnerable gaps, but it just seemed to be suffering from the "one hit, one kill" Hollywood trope. No offense. That's just what I got off it. And as for heraldry, well, ok, reds vs whites as in the colors of Lancaster and York, fair enough.I would've loved to see surcoats, but cloth is fine for an independent medieval-based film. As long as everyone can be identified instead of that whole "everyone wears grey armor" BS, I'm perfectly fine with it. All that aside, this was a beautifully made battle down to a T and I'm really sorry if I came across as too critical. I honestly enjoyed it and would indeed recommend. edit: I'm seeing a lot of comments pointing out a lot of misconceptions in this vid, and yes, they're all valid, but this isn't exactly the worst thing ever made, right? definitely better than The King 2019 imo.

Guys you can't expect historical accuracy on a TV show based on some novels. Also, I imagine the forrest and the snow is a strategy from the team to make it look like a much more bigger battle than it is, because obviously they have no budget to do a freaking battle of the bastards like Game Of Thrones. Even tho is not accurate I liked both the show and this battle.

The Welsh soldiers who fought in this battle came back with a different story to the one that history tells Henry didn't want the crown and offered it to another Welsh man and he said no thanks its its yours and what we know in our stories is that Richard may not have been killed in this battle but imprison in Wales for 3 years until the got quit and Henry had him moved to England were he was killed or murdered. Henry used Welsh soldiers because they couldn't speak English as to keep it a secret. One story that one soldier said on coming back to Wales was Henry flip a coin to see who won the crown because he didn't want it at first

Okay this battle was fought on 22 August 1485 so why is there snow on the ground? Oh and the Wiki page for this puts the losses for Tudor at around 100 which is far to few for a battle of this size and such close in fighting. But the Tudor's got to write the history of it and made Richard III to be totally evil which wasn't the case.

I wonder how come that history always picture Yorkists as "good" and Lancastars the "bad". Usually the cause is easy to spot which is Pop culture but in War of Roses case history also shows Yorkist as the righteous. I know that nothing black and white so I do wonder why that is the case.

As far as I know, this show is based on novel book which is not written by historician. The author likes Yorks so she potrayed them like the best ones and the Lancasteres as evil enemies. In the sequel book called 'White Princess' she potrayed Henry as bad husband who treated Elizabeth badly but i've heard that in real they were good marriage so I'm glad that they changed this in tv series "White Princess". But I also wonder why Yorks are prefered by everyone.

@@blacklight4720 "My only guess is Shakespeare, I might be wrong though." Quite the opposite; Shakespeare was decidedly anti-York, and is in some part responsible for the public's perception of Richard III as one of history's great villains. (Henry VII's historians started the vilification of Richard but Shakespeare's work is far more known.) Shakespeare's patrons were Tudors, the line that chased out the House of York. Shakespeare has little bad to say about Edward IV, who granted is not an easy target, but lays it on thick with Richard. Now, it's easy to paint Shakespeare as a propagandist; it's often done in any discussion of his histories. And true, he didn't want to upset his royal patrons. But it's very important to remember his knowledge of history was at the mercy of _terrible_ historians. He read their work and wouldn't have much access to contradictory accounts, e.g. reading Holinshed and Thomas More but not the then-untranslated Domenico Mancini. It's actually not surprising where Shakespeare got his ideas when you go back and read what _he_ read. But remember: when Shakespeare accused Macbeth of regicide, showed Prince Hal as a hellion youth, and portrayed Richard III as a scheming, child-murdering hunchback, he _thought_ he was telling the truth. His incorrect sources asserted those things with authority.

It's the great question bc as you said it isnt black and white. I mean just look at the facts, For a good reason or not the Yorks overthrew the Lancasterians off the throne, and Henry VII and his family were apart of House Lancaster. So The Yorks complain that there world got turned upside down when the Tudors won but how do u think they felt when Edward IV won the throne? When Henry Tudor and his Uncle Jasper Tudor had to live in exile and were constantly running and hiding for their lives hoping they wouldnt be caught and executed? The battle for the throne is never easy and it isnt pretty. Families have conquered and defeated other dynasties and bloodlines all the time. I mean look at John I, he had his nephew, Prince Arthur, the rightful heir of Richard I captured and killed to secure the throne but that is hardley ever spoken about compared to the princes in the tower. Furthermore on Richard III he stole the crown from his nephews, put them in the tower, and although we dont know who did it he made them vulnerable for disappearing so regardless if he did it or not it is just as much his fault. Furthermore though why did he declare himself King, he was lord protector only, even if he declared Edward V as illegitimate, then why did he crown himself and not his other nephew and niece, Edward or Margaret, from his deceased older brother George? Its simple it's because he wanted the crown and power and was gonna do anything to get it and keep it. End of story.
