Rok 1464. Anglia od blisko dekady jest w stanie wojny domowej. Walka toczy się pomiędzy Yorkami i Lancasterami o prawo do tronu. Za sprawą manipulacji Lorda Warwicka (James Frain) królem Anglii zostaje Edward IV z rodu Yorków (Max Irons). Nowy władca zakochuje się w plebejce – Elizabeth Woodville (Rebecca Ferguson) – która po śmierci męża pozostała z dwójką dzieci bez grosza przy duszy. Para potajemnie bierze ślub, a sytuacja na dworze powoli zaczyna wymykać się spod kontroli. (HBO)

Biała królowa (2013)
I expected far better of this series than I eventually got. The creators clearly didn't have an exorbitant budget at their disposal, so all of the action takes place off screen, with more focus on romance and frequent baring of certain body parts (that’s right, breast men rejoice). For some reason, the series features a sort of witchcraft theme (I guess because Harry Potter’s so popular), which really got on my nerves. All in all, it was a mixed bag of positives and negatives for me, so my opinion of the whole series can be summed up using a neutral three stars.

Zakochana w królu (2013) (E01)
I'm feeling a bit conflicted after watching the first episode. I was hoping for a gripping historical drama, but instead, it felt more like a romantic escapade set against a backdrop of pseudo-history. The only saving grace for me was the glimpses of court intrigues, which hinted at a potential path worth exploring.
()
Cena władzy (2013) (E02)
In contrast to the romance-heavy first episode, the second one dives headfirst into political intrigue and manipulation, which I found much more engaging. However, what held me back from giving a higher rating was the historical accuracy — only the costumes seemed to hit the mark.
()
Burza (2013) (E03)
This series is a bit of a mixed bag for me. At times, I'm fully invested in the storyline, but then some moments just lose me completely. Take, for instance, the overly dramatic birth scene on the boat – it felt entirely unnecessary to me. And unfortunately, there are more instances like that scattered throughout.

Zła królowa (2013) (E04)
Once again, it wasn't perfect, but the political intrigue was a highlight for me. The whole "ends justify the means" vibe was strong. I just wished someone would shout out like Edmund Blackadder: "Run for the hills!" (or from the hills, depending on where the enemy was coming from).

Zobaczyć wojnę (2013) (E05)
Well, the creators didn't take too many liberties with history this time around, which is a relief. But I can't wrap my head around why they keep shoehorning in those spells and enchantments, making it feel more like a fairy tale than a historical drama. That said, I must admit, this episode was probably the highlight of the series for me so far. 3*+

Miłość i śmierć (2013) (E06)
I keep encountering the same underlying issue with this series: when the creators veer away from major historical events, as they did in the previous episode, and delve into relationship dynamics, it feels off. At times, it's almost like watching a soap opera unfold.
()
Trucizna i małmazja (2013) (E07)
No matter how extensively I searched, there was no evidence suggesting Elizabeth Woodville's involvement in witchcraft or even suspicion of it. Given that the entire episode centered around magic and poisoning, I couldn't justify giving it a higher rating.
()
Niech żyje król (2013) (E08)
Gloucester's character has always intrigued me, and I found his journey to the throne captivating. Now, I'm eager to see how the screenwriters handle the slanders from that vastly overrated playwright.
()
Księżniczka w wieży (2013) (E09)
This episode was packed with schemes, counter-plots, intrigues, and manipulations galore. While it certainly had its strengths, I couldn't help but feel that it fell short of the quality set by the previous episode. Gloucester's rehabilitation was a welcome development, but I didn't enjoy the amount of magic involved.
()
Ostateczna bitwa (2013) (E10)
The series wraps up with an episode that had me flashing back to the opening of the first season of the comedy classic Blackadder. While the Battle of Bosworth was portrayed in a rather budget-conscious manner — hey, you work with what you've got — the thing that really caught my attention was the strangely advanced technology of the armor. The shoulder plates seemed to switch positions from left to right and back.
