The Pillars of the Earth

About this programme

5/6. King Stephen defeats Maud, who flees to France, while Aliena and Richard suffer from a lack of funds following the attack on Kingsbridge and seek a new beginning. Jack is infuriated by Alfred's proposal to Aliena, but his anger results in his imprisonment, and Ellen's son escapes and tries to learn the truth about his mysterious father. Meanwhile, William Hamleigh weds Countess Elizabeth in a financially motivated marriage, and the king visits Kingsbridge Cathedral - where Waleran announces who will be awarded the earldom, moments before catastrophe strikes.
