"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]

Cast

Actors appear in both parts unless noted.

Production

"Henry IV, Part I" and "Henry IV, Part II" were filmed simultaneously from January to March 2012.[1] The films were shot on location and at Ealing Studios in London, where the Boar's Head Tavern set was created.[3] Scenes at Henry IV's court in the Palace of Westminster were filmed at Gloucester Cathedral.[4] Caerphilly Castle in Wales was used both for the scenes set at Warkworth Castle and for the meeting with Glendower.[3][5] The Battle of Shrewsbury was filmed in a field near Rickmansworth during a winter snowfall.[6] Although the battle took place in July, director Richard Eyre said he was delighted by the result: "The grass of the English landscape tends to subvert the violence of battle, so the snow turned the setting into this monochromatic world."[7]

Release

"Henry IV, Part I" aired on BBC2 on Saturday, 7 July 2012. The start time was delayed by an hour because of coverage of the 2012 Wimbledon Championships, and the film was subsequently repeated on Sunday, 8 July on BBC4.[8][9] "Henry IV, Part II" aired the following Saturday, 14 July.
