Get ready for a whole 10 episodes of scheming Richard III and the War of the Roses in new BBC/Starz drama, The White Queen. Based on the books by Other Boleyn Girl author, Philippa Gregory, the new series got a nice press bump from the recently discovered remains of Richard--- underneath a car park in Leicester.
The series stars Aneurin Barnard (of the West End Spring Awakening) as Richard III and (counter-intutively, Swedish) Rebecca Ferguson as the White Queen. I look forwar to disappearing for 10 hours into this one.
Ohhhh, YES! Now--will this be on BBC America, or will I have to search for this one, as well?
