World Without End Premiered on Showcase on September 04, 2012
A paid assassin is sent to murder a king. A mysterious knight flees to the countryside, hotly pursued by the Queen's men. Two teenagers witness an incident in the woods that will change the course of a nation.
In the thriving town of Kingsbridge, the latest marketplace gossip is the strange circumstances of the King's death. The civil war is over, Kingsbridge's economy is robust and merchant coffers are full.
All is well in Kingsbridge until the two noble young men bring their wounded knight to the Priory to be doctored. Sir Thomas Langley surprises all by buying his sanctuary in the Church as a humble monk using a dowry from the Queen. What could he possibly have on Queen Isabella to warrant such support?
Without warning, Kingsbridge seems suddenly under siege. The Queen's ardent supporter, Sir Roland, marches in and usurps the Earldom of neighboring Shiring, condemning the reigning lord to death as a traitor. Roland's list of men, who supported the old King against Her Majesty is long – and they will all hang. The rest must pay dearly in taxes to support her claim to the French Crown - marking the beginning of the 100 Year War.
Caris, a visionary young woman, struggles to rise above the suffering and oppression in order to lead her people out of the dark times. In order to save Kingsbridge, Caris, along with her lover Merthin and Thomas Langley, build a community that stands up to The Crown and The Church. Their courage inspires a nation and throughout Europe commoners and peasants stand up for their rights and revolt against their oppressors - a new age emerges.

Yeah that a good bet as well shame we can't get points for guessing Author: bala Time: 9-6-2012 04:54 Subject: Knight
Man this is a brutal show i wasn't expecting this much cruelty on a tv show but this really showed how life was horriable. I am not spoil what happen but you really need be be tough to watch it. How cruel much you to poision your own sister so that she could marry her husband so she could send her son oxford. Author: bala Time: 9-12-2012 06:17 Subject: King
Like i said before this really is quite disturbing show and you do need tough to watch it. Selling your daugher for a cow because she wouldn't allow him to rape was worse but what a way for her escape and i kind of knew the bridge would eventually collaspe but what a way take advantage of an opportunity to kill someone so that her son would replace his boss.

What great use of the arrow through his arm and the sons fighting to see who lives and who dies with their father was barbaric but they did love to hang back in those days Author: codebreaker Time: 9-18-2012 07:39 Subject: 1x02 King
Annet flirting with the Ralph was amusing but she looked like she was enjoying the men fighting over her and Merthin giving Elfric a kicking for hitting his wife was great but how embarrassing for Godwyn being asked if he still masturbates, I was hopping the bridge collapse before Mattie hanged but Petranilla taking the opportunity to drown her brother was interesting Author: bala Time: 9-18-2012 08:22 Subject: Reply 11#11 codebreaker's post
You can see how times have changed no ways no mother would ask their son that Author: bala Time: 9-22-2012 08:27 Subject: Prior
Well what a way to blackmail everyone into support his position as Prior but what a tragic ending for that girl but swearing on a novel pretending it's a bible was cruel. . Author: bala Time: 9-26-2012 12:20 Subject: Check
Man how many people is that guy going to kill to stay in power and look like that Sister had a plan made her a nun was quick thinking . Author: codebreaker Time: 10-1-2012 13:52 Subject: 1x03 Prior
I find it ironic that they blamed God for the bridge collapsing and considering the wealth the bridge brought them he now thinks they don't need it, moving the wooden step was predictable but also taking it as a sign from God was ridiculous and what a sacrifice to try and get the land back Author: codebreaker Time: 10-1-2012 15:00 Subject: 1x04 Check
Ralph should of hanged for raping the girl but Godwyn and his mother being on a killing streak I hope gets them hanged but framing Caris for murder was interesting Author: bala Time: 10-3-2012 12:06 Subject: Pawns
Well that was one hell of a last ditch effort from French king who thought he had lost Author: bala Time: 10-10-2012 10:57 Subject: Rook
Wow plague look nasty and i am glad certain character got it but the continued time jump between every episodes is getting annoying. I understand they are trying to move the story along but i just notice all episode are chess moves. Author: codebreaker Time: 10-17-2012 10:15 Subject: 1x05 Pawns
The state of the boys arm after trying to steal a pie was terrible but I should imagine that taught him a lesson he won't forget and the first across the water were lucky not to of been seen but the arrow attack was impressive Author: codebreaker Time: 10-17-2012 10:57 Subject: 1x06 Rook
I see Godwyn is blaming God again, this time for the plague but Godwyn thinking the same God will save him and sicken her is hypercritical Author: bala Time: 10-17-2012 11:00 Subject: Reply 20#20 codebreaker's post
That guy is satan
How much blood does he have on his hand to keep that position Author: codebreaker Time: 10-17-2012 11:02 Subject: Reply 21#21 bala's post
We can only hope God has something really evil and painful for him in the near future Author: bala Time: 10-17-2012 11:05 Subject: Reply 22#22 codebreaker's post
Given that his mother exposed him i think it obvious he going to die with the plague ? Author: bala Time: 10-18-2012 04:58 Subject: Queen
So much for thinking both of them were dead but finding out who her other son was obvious but he finally gets what he wanted by forcing a marriage to her but she got the last laugh.

What a conclusion to the series finding out the king was alive and hiding in plain sight was a huge surprise but best bit has to be death of all the evil characters starting with Godwyn and his mother and that Earl getting killied by a small boy was priceless .

What a scum bag threatening the boy and then trying to hang his father but running like a cowered when the crowd turned on him was ironic and Philippa taking her own life so he couldn't have her was sad Author: codebreaker Time: 10-30-2012 17:34 Subject: 1x08 Checkmate
Know wonder Ralph and Godwyn are so evil with a mother like theirs so them all dying in the final episode made my day especially the boy killing Ralph
