(New Remix of episode from 2022) The disaster of the sinking of the White Ship in 1120 robbed the Kingdom of England of an heir to inherit the throne. What followed was a 20year civil war, known as The Anarchy
King Stephen is crowned but soon his new found friends will turn into rebels - all with their own reasons for turning towards King Stephen's cousin, Matilda, and declaring their support for her right to the crown - a crown promised her by her late father, King Henry - but a crown King Stephen, through speed and promises, managed to secure for himself in the unsettled days following the old king's death.
Years pass - but in 1141, Matilda and Stephen's men at arms face each other for the first time. Battle is joined, the fight for the crown begins!
