About this episode
Richard sends his favourites scrambling. One tries to flee disguised as a chicken salesman, while another counts himself lucky for knowing how to swim. The Appellants want to depose Richard, but will they get their chance?
To hear about the last time a Plantagenet King was deposed, listen to season five, episode eleven to learn more about how Edward II was knocked off of his perch… by his wife.
