Summary Henry Bolingbroke has now been crowned King of England, but faces a rebellion headed by the embittered Earl of Northumberland and his son (nicknamed 'Hotspur'). Henry's son Hal, the Prince of Wales, has thrown over life at court in favour of heavy drinking and petty theft in the company of a debauched elderly knight, Sir John Falstaff. Hal must extricate himself from some legal problems, regain his father's good opinions and help suppress the uprising. BBC Television's Performance series of the 1995 Henry IV combines the two Parts into one adaptation with two films, Henry IV, Part 1 (1995) and Henry IV, Part 2 (1995)
