J'ai beaucoup aimé cette série qui est fidèle à la vraie Histoire de l'Angleterre & de la guerre des deux roses. Une saison suffit amplement puisque dans la réalité Élizabeth s'est retiré de la cours suite au couronnement d'Henry Tudor, la boucle est bouclé. Si vous voulez suivre l'ordre chronologique et découvrir un peu plus l'histoire de l'Angleterre regardez la série "Les Tudors" qui a pour sujet Henry 8 le fils du Henry Tudor de The White Queen. Sachez aussi que Elizabeth (the white queen) est l'ancêtre de chaque monarque anglais, écossais & britannique, cette femme a laissé une vraie trace dans l'histoire. Coup de coeur vraiment pour cette série! Moi qui adore l'histoire j'ai été ravie !

I loved this series that is true to the real history of England & the Wars of the Roses. A season is more than enough because in reality Elizabeth withdrew from the course after the coronation of Henry Tudor, the loop is closed. If you want to follow the chronological order and discover a little more history of England watch the show "The Tudors" which has about 8 Henry the son of Henry Tudor of The White Queen. Also note that Elizabeth (the white queen) is the ancestor of every English monarch, Scottish & British woman has left a real mark on history. Shot really love with this series! I love the story that I was thrilled!

A second series to "the white queen" is coming! "The White Princess" is happening, this totally made my day #thewhitequeen

Quando o primeiro episódio já é suficiente pra te fazer amar a série.

When the first episode is enough to make you love the series.

I'm looking forward to see this tv show but I don't know if i should or not.

Having had the pleasure of finishing the series on BBC iPlayer today I would like to say I thoroughly enjoyed it as did most people who saw it with me.

Now I did not watch this because I wanted a historical documentary. I watched it for the same reason I watched The Tudors, for an entertaining period drama about the intrigue surrounding the War of the Roses. There are many inaccuracies in both shows but I found them easy to overlook. It concerns mainly Elizabeth Woodville and her time as Queen of England whilst others plotted her demise and some even sought to overthrow King Edward. The acting was, on the whole, very good for TV and the sets and costumes were all fantastic and suited the characters portrayed in them. There clearly was not a high budget here and it shows, particularly in the battle scenes. However, I did was able to overlook this as the story did enough to draw me in.

The reason many people did not enjoy this show as much, in my opinion, is due to the first couple of episodes. They are considerably weaker than the rest of the show and I was tempted to give up after episode 2, it just seemed too much like a soap opera. However, once the main story lines picked up it was highly enjoyable.

If you can overlook the flaws in this show and, like me, you actually read books for your historical knowledge rather than TV dramas then you should be able to enjoy this show and I highly recommend it.

Real shame they decided to cancel this show.

Fantastica serie! Da vedere! Per chi è appassionato di storia e reali... da non perdere!

Fantastic series! To be seen! For those who are passionate about history and real ... do not miss it!

Essa série merecia 50 temporadas.

This series deserved 50 seasons.

Même si "l'authenticité historique" n'a pas été parfaitement historique, je dois reconnaître que cette série m'a envoûté pendant 10 épisodes. Je peux tout à fait comprendre qu'elle fasse pâle figure en face de The Tudors (costumes, décors), mais la regarder en sachant qu'elle serait bouclée en une seule saison a été assez agréable. Elle m'aura surtout fait acheter une encyclopédie historique pour maîtriser le sujet a fond ???? !!

Even if "historical authenticity" was not perfectly historical, I must admit that this series has captivated me for 10 episodes. I can quite understand it to do pale in front of The Tudors (costumes, sets), but knowing she would look curled in a single season was pretty nice. It will especially made me buy a historical encyclopedia to master the subject thoroughly ???? !!

c'est officielle la série sera de retour pour une deuxième saison / The White Queen season 2 is definitely in the works

is the official series will return for a second season / season 2 The White Queen is definitely in the works

Franchement, une série excellente (donc je ne comprends pas pourquoi j'entends partout qu'elle a fait un flop) avec des personnages géniaux, des acteurs très bons et des intrigues très bien ficelées. C'est super bien rythmé, les images, la musique... tout est absolument très beau. Les principaux reproches devront sans doute se faire sur l'aspect historique du scénario mais je le répète sans cesse : c'est de la fiction, ça va forcément un peu dériver mais tant que ça reste cohérent et que ça ne réécrit pas complètement l'histoire, ça me va parfaitement bien.
Ce qui m'a le plus marqué dans cette série, c'est qu'elle s'attache à montrer des personnages humains, pétris de qualités et de défauts. Vous ne pouvez pas savoir à quel point ça fait un bien fou de ne pas assister en permanence à un combat des "gentils" contre les "méchants". De vrais personnages, avec de vraies motivations et de vrais objectifs.
The White Queen mélange aussi bien les intrigues politiques aux histoires d'amour, de famille, de succession et de guerre. Mes personnages préférés restent sans conteste Richard et George, les frères du roi Edward IV.

Frankly, an excellent series (so I do not understand why I hear everywhere that it was a flop) with great characters, very good actors and very well-crafted plots. Its a great rhythm, images, music ... everything is absolutely beautiful. The main criticisms will no doubt be on the historical aspect of the scenario but I repeat again: this is fiction, it inevitably will drift slightly but that much remains consistent and that it does not completely rewritten the history, it suits me perfectly.
What impressed me most in this series is that it attempts to show human figures, imbued with qualities and defects. You can not know how it's been a very foolish not to attend constantly to a battle of "friendly" against the "bad guys". Real characters with real motivations and real goals.
The White Queen mixture both political intrigue to stories of love, family, succession and war. My favorite characters are undoubtedly Richard and George, the brothers of King Edward IV.
