The White Queen is a BBC television drama series based on Philippa Gregory's bestselling historical novel series The Cousins' War. The White Queen, The Red Queen and The Kingmakers Daughter. Set against the backdrop of the Wars of the Roses, the series is the story of the women caught up in the long-drawn-out conflict for the throne of England. It starts in 1464—the nation has been at war for nine years fighting over who is the rightful King of England, as two sides of the same family, the House of York and the House of Lancaster, are in violent conflict over the throne. The story focuses on three women in their quest for power, as they manipulate behind the scenes of history—Elizabeth Woodville, Margaret Beaufort and Anne Neville. The costumes were designed beautifully by Nic Ede.
