British History's Biggest Fibs with Lucy Worsley
The Glorious Revolution
Season 1 Episode 2 of 3
The historian debunks the so-called Glorious Revolution of 1688, when Dutch prince William of Orange invaded the British Isles and stole the throne from his father-in-law, King James II. It has since been described as a 'glorious' and 'bloodless' revolution. But given that it led to huge slaughter in Ireland and Scotland, how glorious was it really?
British History's Biggest Fibs with Lucy Worsley airs on BBC Four HD at 2:35 AM, Wednesday 25 February. (Subtitles, sign language, audio description.)
