The Death of Thomas Becket. British Library. Harley 2900 f. 56v
Not all friendships are meant to last, but some go the extra mile and turn into bitter rivalries. Picking up where we left off at the end of Part I, this episode follows the relationship between  King Henry II and Archbishop Thomas Becket to the violent ending that left only one man standing.
