Hilary Mantel: Return to Wolf Hall (2020)

Made across six months this film enjoys exclusive and extensive access to one of the world's greatest living writers, delving into the present and her past as she describes a vivid imagination active from an early age and recounts with candour a tale of growing up with a dark family secret. Who could have imagined that Mantel's working-class anti-hero Thomas Cromwell would come to be so loved across the globe? 500 years after his death, the story of Cromwell's extraordinary rise and sudden fall has been brought back into the light, drawing a vast readership, two Booker wins, a Bafta-winning television adaptation, a West End show and the interpretative gifts of some of our greatest actors.
