Britain's Bloody Crown
Richard III: The Princes Must Die
Season 1 Episode 3 of 4
Historian Dan Jones examines one of the most infamous chapters of the Wars of the Roses, asking whether Richard III really did kill the Princes in the Tower in 1483. At the time of Edward IV's death, his younger brother Richard was an English hero, a great military leader who had shown unswerving loyalty to the crown. So what could have happened to change him into a child-murdering tyrant in just three months?
Britain's Bloody Crown airs on 5SELECT at 2:00 AM, Sunday 18 May. (Subtitles.)
