When news of Clarence's death reaches the King, the subsequent grief and remorse bring about his death. Richard is made Lord Protector, with power to rule England while his nephew (now King Edward V) is still a minor. Before the young king's coronation he has his two nephews conveyed to the Tower, ostensibly for their safekeeping. Richard's accomplice, the Duke of Buckingham, then declares the two boys illegitimate and offers Richard the crown, which after a show of reticence he accepts. After Richard's coronation, he and Buckingham have a falling-out over whether or not to assassinate the two children.

La rockera
Fordyce
Kate (Hazel O'Connor) es una excéntrica cantante de música New Wave, su aspecto es bastante estrafalario y escribe letras de gran contenido social. En su cruzada antisistema, lo que más detesta es la industria discográfica. Sin embargo, cuando Danny (Phil Daniels) le ofrece ser su mánager, acaba aceptando. En su camino hacia el estrellato va perdiendo poco a poco sus principios. En una Inglaterra convulsionada por las huelgas, el paro y los enfrentamientos callejeros, Breaking Glass retrata la corrupta industria musical que convierte en mercancía de consumo y en moda pasajera incluso la más subversiva de las culturas juveniles. Mención especial a la banda sonora interpretada por Hazel O'Connor.
