The four-part limited series, made in Pontefract, West Yorkshire, has received backing from the Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer.
Wolf Hall director Peter Kosminsky says that due to increased costs driven by American streaming companies, the BBC and ITV can no longer afford to produce high-end dramas like "Wolf Hall" or issue-led dramas focused on British subjects, like "Mr Bates Vs The Post Office". He believes they would want to make shows like Netflix's "Adolescence," but cannot afford to.
