Part of the ‘Hollow Crown’, a series of adaptations of Shakespeare’s history plays for the BBC’s 2012 Cultural Olympiad. Henry IV Part I depicts a span of history that begins with Hotspur’s battle at Homildon in Northumberland against Douglas late in 1402 and ends with the defeat of the rebels at Shrewsbury in the middle of 1403. Henry IV Part II focuses on Prince Hal’s journey to kingship.
