| has gloss | eng: "The Foretelling" was the first episode of the first series of the BBC sitcom Blackadder (The Black Adder). It introduces Edmund Blackadder, and opens with a narrative dispelling the depiction of King Richard III of England as a scheming murderer. The premise is that Henry Tudor rewrote history to portray himself as the man who killed Richard III, and the show intends to rectify the situation by telling the real story of the king that succeeded Richard III, and the events that led to Henry Tudor's becoming King Henry VII. |
