Watched this over the weekend and it was brilliant, set in medevil times amid a succession to the throne it plays out the stories of several characters in different walks of life, Royalty, Religion and commoners, a multitude of different overlapping plots, schemes and people competing for power or the achieve their ambitions, all culminating in the one big plot that set all their lives on the paths they took.
