In the late 15th century, the Nasrid Kingdom of Granada, the last Muslim stronghold in Spain after eight centuries of splendor, faces its final days. As the Catholic Monarchs Ferdinand and Isabella launch their campaign to conquer the Emirate, internal rivalries, palace intrigues, and power struggles within the Nasrid dynasty — particularly between Sultan Muley Hacén, his son Boabdil, and the rival factions of the Abencerrajes and Zegríes — accelerate the kingdom’s downfall. Blending historical events with drama, romance, and epic battles, Réquiem por Granada recounts the tragic and glorious history of the fall of Granada from a perspective centered on its Muslim rulers and people, capturing the cultural richness, betrayals, and human cost of one of the defining moments in Spanish history.

SeriesDrama
Banished is a British period drama television serial created by Jimmy McGovern. The seven-part serial first aired on BBC Two from 5 March to 16 April 2015. It received mixed reviews, with most of the criticism for its perceived inaccuracies to the depicted events. Though set in the stark historical reality of the founding of the penal colony in Australia in 1788 after the arrival of the First Fleet, it is not the story of Australia and how it came to be. Rather, it is a tale of love, faith, justice and morality played out on an epic scale in a confined community where the stakes are literally life and death.

But the closer Lowe gets, the more he finds that his quest is not so simple. Lowe can't help but admire the political ideals of Blackbeard, whose thirst for knowledge knows no bounds - and no law.
