Torrent description

Apologies to those who had downloaded the previous one with audio sync problems.
I know what happened now. This was an episode that for some reason GordianKnot was unable to encode to 744mb. After about 6 or 7 encodes it kept coming out at around 850mb. I used AutoGordianKnot which gave me the 744mb. I have had a few issues before with AGK giving me sync probs with my captured files and I had forgotten I had use AGK on this episode.

The size of part 2 is now 852mb as it will not encode any smaller for some reason

Torrent has now been replaced and fixed

Channel 4 - Monarchy Series 2 (2005)

Information

Dr. David Starkey presents the second series of his history of the British monarchy, beginning in the savage maelstrom of the Wars of the Roses. The Tudors eventually triumph, and carry the crown of England to its peak. Then the House of Stuart takes the throne, uniting England and Scotland but eventually mishandling both countries.

The second series culminates in the English Civil War and a revolution that killed a king, but failed to extirpate royal rule in Britain. And in 1660, the king is returned to the throne. Starkey reveals the lust, greed, desire and emotion of England's past kings and queens as they battle for the crown. With teen pregnancies, hired hit men, scheming mothers-in-law, warring siblings and more, it features more drama than even Hollywood could dream up.
