Henry IV, Part I and Part II (The Hollow Crown)
2nd and 3rd episodes of the 1st series of The Hollow Crown
"Henry IV, Part I" and "Henry IV, Part II" are the second and third episodes of the first series of the British television series The Hollow Crown, based on the second set of plays in William Shakespeare's Henriad. The episodes were produced by Sam Mendes, directed and adapted by Richard Eyre and starred Jeremy Irons as King Henry IV, Simon Russell Beale as Falstaff and Tom Hiddleston as Prince Hal.[1] Much of the cast and crew of both episodes overlap and the plot flows directly from the first to the second. The episodes were first broadcast on 7 July and 14 July 2012 on BBC Two.
Henry IV, Part 1 and Henry IV, Part 2 are the second and third plays in Shakespeare's tetralogy dealing with the successive reigns of Richard II, Henry IV, and Henry V.
Simon Russell Beale won the 2013 British Academy Television Award (BAFTA) for Supporting actor for his performance as Falstaff.[2]
