The series follows a series of historical events that come based on the plays of William Shakespeare in history, which includes 'Henriad' and others. It talks about Richard II, King Henry IV Part I, King Henry IV Part II and King Henry V. In this series, there will be a different framework about power struggles, family struggles, penance, and betrayal in a continuous period of British history, from the end of the fourteenth century to the Battle of Agincourt that changed the course of history.
For the most part, the flexibility that television provides is used to good advantage in The Hollow Crown to clarify the action and enhance the dynamics.
The trump card of Hollow Crown, of course, is that it was written by Shakespeare - and if the language sounds stilted to modern ears, anyone who listens for more than a few minutes will be properly seduced.
This is a definitive visual portrait of Richard II, the single best widely available instance of a severely underrated history play with dramatic thematic ramifications for English identity.
