The White Princess / The Spanish Princess Collection [Import]

THE WHITE PRINCESS

Drawn from the novel of the same name by Philippa Gregory, The White Princess is a tale of power, family, love and betrayal, charting one of the most tumultuous times in British history uniquely from the point of view of the women. The tempestuous marriage of Elizabeth of York (Jodie Comer) and King Henry VII officially marks the conclusion of the War of the Roses, but the real battle for the throne is far from over.

THE SPANISH PRINCESS

The Spanish Princess is a vivid and captivating story told uniquely from the point of view of the women, which also sheds light on a previously untold corner of history: the lives of people of colour living and working in 16th-century London. Catherine of Aragon (Charlotte Hope) is the strong-willed young Princess of Spain, who has been promised the English throne since she was a child. She arrives in a grey, rain-lashed England with her glorious and diverse court, including her ladies-in- waiting Lina ?" a Spanish noble of African-Iberian descent ?" and the sweet and free-spirited Rosa. When her husband, Prince Arthur, dies suddenly, the throne seems lost to Catherine until she devises an audacious plan and sets her sights on the new heir, the charismatic and headstrong Prince Harry (Ruairi O ?Connor), who will one day rule as King Henry VIII.
