| This is a great series that was made in cooperation with the BBC and Starz. I continue to be impressed with the BBC programming of shows really seems to be excellent. Follows the War of the Roses and provides about 10 hours of programming that will keep entertained for atleast a month if you watch two episodes a week. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/BBP_cuh-up8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> There is talk that a season 2 might be in the planning stages because of the popularity of the show. |

| I absolutely LOVE that the BBC and other UK stations do so many period dramas. You just don't see that type of program being made here in the U.S. |

| I continue to be very impressed with the BBC and also with Irish/British/Scottish actors and actresses in general. For example, the Walking Dead main characters such as Rick and the Governor are from the U.K. / Ireland. You would never know it with their drawl southern accent! The White Queen is a great show with some excellent acting, scenes, sets and customs are very impressive. Loved Merlin too and sad to see it end, hopefully there will be a spin-off. |

| That looks interesting and intense at times though probably not as bloody as Game of Thrones |

| I love the White Queen, they really did a great job bringing the characters to life. Skeets, it is definitely not as bloody as the Game of Thrones |
