2 DVDer med fire episoder på hver. - Using dramatic reconstructions, sumptuous aerial photographi, detailed computer generated walkthroughs and expert commentary from Tower historians, it includes all the famous incidents in the Tower's history from the daring escape bids and Captain Blood's theft of the Crown Jewels to the disappearance of the Little Princes and the execution of Ann Boleyn. - The Tower of London stands on the banks of the river Thames, one of the most stately and recognisable symbols of Britain. For over 900 years it has served the nation in many ways - as a fortress, palace, prison, treasure house, armoury and Royal Mint. Since it was founded by William the Conqueror, it has seen both pageantry and insidious intrigue. Kings have been murdered here and Queens put to the axe. Spies and traitors have been executed and innocents butchered to suit ruthless ambitions. It has gainde the nickname "The Bloody Tower", with good reasons indeed...
