【BBC英国的那些女王们】伊莎贝拉与玛格丽特10
1308年,年仅12岁的法兰西公主伊莎贝拉嫁给了英格兰国王,成为英格兰王后。一个世纪之后,另一个年轻的法兰西女孩儿,安茹的玛格丽特,步了她的后尘。两个女人都在不知情的情况下,被卷入了混乱暴力的英格兰战争;这两个女人,都在不得已的情况下,走出幕后,力挽狂澜,控制了最终的王权。伊莎贝拉被指控谋杀,而玛格丽特的野心足以摧毁一切。其实,她们的坚持已见和毫不动摇,这些素质在男人身上就会显得正常无比,而如果是女人表现出这些素质,就会被认为是不近人情,甚至是荒谬变态的!❤ HINTS:

Its borders were now overrun by Scot's raids and they couldn't be defended without help from the Earl of Lancaster, the man who had murdered Edward's beloved Gaveston.
The threat of the Scots and the rift between Edward and Lancaster, made England a profoundly dysfunctional kingdom, and for Isabella it was a thankless task to be its Queen. But her unhappy situation was about to become much worse. A new favourite was emerging at Edward's court, who would be more of a threat to Isabella than Gaveston had ever been.在班克诺本,罗伯特·布鲁斯击溃了爱德华的军队,英格兰失去了对苏格兰的控制权。边境遭到苏格兰人的入侵,若是没有兰开斯特伯爵的帮助,他们将无法守住这一切,而那个男人却傻了爱德华的至爱——加维斯顿。
来自苏格兰的威胁,以及爱德华和兰开斯特之间的不合,让英格兰国内陷入一片混乱之中。这对伊莎贝拉来说,可谓是吃力不讨好,然而她的倒霉境地还没远到头儿,爱德华身边又出现了一个新宠。他的威胁对伊莎贝拉的威胁,远比加维斯顿来得大。
